About the Author

The moment everything changed involved two campaigns that had nothing to do with each other.

One targeted chief compliance officers at mid-market insurance companies. The other targeted IT decision-makers at large retailers. Different industries. Different titles. Different products. Nothing obviously comparable.

Except both campaigns dramatically outperformed expectations in exactly the same way. Not just “both did well”—they rhymed. Same signature of engagement patterns. Similar curves in prospect nurture. Parallel behaviors in content consumption. Even conversion trigger timing followed remarkably similar arcs.

The campaigns themselves didn’t rhyme. But their dimensions did.

That recognition became the foundation for everything explored in The Benchmark Lie.
