What if the concepts behind great marketing have never actually changed, only the methods have? Marvin Drobes would know. With 50+ years in sales, marketing, and advertising and nearly two decades running his digital agency, Marvin has watched the landscape shift from print ads and Yellow Pages to Google Business Profiles and AI, and he's stayed standing through all of it.
In this episode, Marvin joins Flora to talk about what it really means to help local businesses stop competing and start dominating, his take on why most small business owners are using AI all wrong, and how a chance recommendation from his mentor led him to Google NotebookLM and a podcast strategy that tripled his downloads.
He also makes the case that AI is no longer a competitive advantage. It's the new baseline. And if you're still asking it to just write an email, you might be leaving a lot on the table.
You'll hear Marvin's thoughts on prompt engineering, client selection, the shiny object syndrome, and why a website that speaks to the reader, not about you, is still the most powerful tool a business can have.
