Public.com's Strategy For Moving Upmarket Without Losing Younger Investors | Zach Dioneda, VP Brand Marketing, Public.com
Épisode 16
mercredi 24 juin 2026 • Durée 43:14
In this episode, Araminta interviews Zach Dioneda, VP of Brand Marketing at Public, discusses how the multi-asset investing platform deliberately rebranded to look more mature, shifting its competitive set from neo-brokers to legacy firms like Schwab and Fidelity by positioning Public as a serious, premium, digital-first investing platform. He explains how years of product expansion since 2022 set the stage for the early-2025 rollout, and how marketing supports longer consideration cycles with a trust-building mix of placements while avoiding incentives that can cheapen the brand. Dioneda also describes engaging younger audiences through authentic online presence, including active Reddit participation by Public leaders.
Key topics include:
Why Public repositioned against Schwab and Fidelity instead of the other newer brokers
How they build trust across a longer buyer cycle
Why they're careful with the incentives of growth hacks that can cheapen a brand
How they made a TV ad almost entirely with AI

The Fintech Marketing Playbook for Complex Products, Long Sales Cycles, and Messy Attribution | Paul Staite & James Hayward, Primer
Épisode 14
mercredi 27 mai 2026 • Durée 47:58
Araminta interviews Paul Staite and James Hayward at Primer, a unified infrastructure platform for global payments and commerce. They explain why traditional SaaS marketing playbooks often fail in payments due to long sales cycles, hard-to-demo “background” products, extreme regional and vertical nuance, global-first targeting, multiple personas, and buyers for whom payments is only part of the job. Primer’s lean team succeeds through executive buy-in, data-driven prioritization, tight cross-functional collaboration, and clear goals, while using both quantitative and qualitative attribution signals. Paul describes the “GTM engineer” role and using automation/AI and Clay to surface intent signals into Slack; James shares AI workflows for tone-of-voice consistency. They also discuss Primer’s ungated Payment Pioneers research series and highlight key “first tools” like robust website forms.
Key topics include:
Why traditional marketing playbooks don't really work in payments
What’s a go-to market engineer
How Primer operate as a lean, high performing marketing team

Dark AI, AEO, and Why Content’s Real Impact Is Harder to Measure | Tom Rudnai, Founder & CEO, Demand-Genius
Épisode 13
mercredi 13 mai 2026 • Durée 44:59
Tom Rudnai from Demand Genius and Araminta discuss why content is often not viewed as a revenue driver due to attribution challenges, despite its broad impact across the funnel, the rising pressure to make content measurable as AI makes creation easier, the need for “information gain” (tiered from reframing to empirical and conceptual novelty), how AI reshapes discovery and AEO beyond an SEO lens, and why citations appear mostly at conversion-stage prompts. They also cover using content to accelerate deal velocity, enabling sales distribution by removing friction and embedding content into workflows, and how Demand Genius connects web engagement to CRM data to measure content’s pipeline impact.
Key topics include:
Why most content fails to drive revenue
What information gain really means in the AI era
How AI is reshaping content discovery
How to use content to support sales conversations and actually accelerate deal velocity

What Sales Actually Wants From Marketing (A Fintech Salesperson's Perspective) | Cristina Ciaravalli, Founder & CEO, Valli Ventures
Épisode 12
mercredi 22 avril 2026 • Durée 44:52
Cristina Ciaravalli talks about why sales and marketing often misalign in FinTech and how to build revenue teams that close. Cristina explains what makes FinTech sales uniquely complex—regulation, tri-party deal dynamics, and the need for reps who understand compliance—and highlights common early-stage mistakes such as hiring only one rep, doing shallow discovery, and targeting an overly broad ICP. She outlines how marketing should support sales through assets, storytelling, SEO, targeted campaigns, and events, emphasizing tight feedback loops, shared pipeline reviews, and access to call recordings. They discuss effective ABM as a true sale–marketing partnership with highly tailored experiences, the risks of ABM too early, and why warm outbound and community-driven events outperform AI-driven high-volume outbound that sacrifices trust.
Key topics include:
Why fintech sales is different and what it requires.
The biggest mistakes founders make when building early stage sales teams.
How sales and marketing should work together to drive revenue.
Why warm outbound and ABM are more relevant in today's market.

How does he as a Fintech CEO think about marketing?
What are the Marketing metrics CEOs really care about?
