16 SEP 2026 · Your CFO and CMO may sound like they are having two completely different conversations but they are often working toward the same goal: helping the business grow and making smarter decisions about where to invest.
In this episode of the Elevated Marketing Dot Podcast, Jennifer Denney explores why finance and marketing need a shared language, especially as businesses head into budgeting and planning for the year ahead.
She breaks down why ROI alone cannot tell the entire marketing story, why attribution has become more complicated, how brand investment fits into the financial conversation, and why marketers need to be able to explain what their data actually means for the business.
Jennifer also discusses the growing impact of AI on budgets, efficiency, and expectations and why simply saying AI “saves time” misses part of the conversation. The bigger takeaway? Better marketing reporting should help leadership answer three questions: What is working? What is not? And what are we going to do about it?
Rather than starting with a marketing tactic, start with the business problem. Understand the buyer journey, determine what needs to change, identify the right marketing response, and then decide how that progress should be measured.

2 SEP 2026 · Before You Invest in Another Marketing Tactic, Answer These 6 Questions
SEO. Social media. Google Ads. Email marketing. A new website.
There is always another marketing tactic someone is telling you that your business needs.But before you invest in another tactic, there is a more important question to answer: What business problem are you actually trying to solve?
In this episode, we talk about why “I need more business” is not specific enough, how understanding your audience affects everything that comes next, why differentiation matters, how to choose the right marketing channels, what you should ask someone to do at different stages of the buyer journey, and how to determine whether your marketing is actually working.
Because SEO, social media, paid ads, content, email, and your website are not the strategy. They are tools and the right tools depend on the problem you are trying to solve and where your customer is in the buying process.

19 AUG 2026 · Social media can be fun, creative, personal, and entertaining. But when it represents your business, it has a bigger job to do. In this episode, we explain why personal social media and business social media are not the same thing, and why posting consistently is not enough to create meaningful business results.
You will hear how to move beyond posting because it is “time to post” and start using social media to reach the right audience, build trust, support the buyer journey, and give potential customers a clear next step. This episode covers why views and likes are not always the right measure of success, how to avoid creating content based only on personal preferences, when trends can help or hurt your brand, and why your social media should connect to your website, email, content, sales process, and larger marketing strategy.
Whether you manage your own business page, have an internal team member handling social media, or are thinking about hiring someone to help, this conversation will help you ask better questions before you post. This episode focuses on using social media as a connected business asset rather than treating it like a personal account. Tired of vague marketing advice? So are we.

5 AUG 2026 · Changing your company name, shortening your brand name, using a DBA, expanding into divisions, or going through a rebrand can feel like a creative or operational decision. But today, your business name affects much more than your logo or website.
In this episode, Jennifer Denney of Elevated Marketing Solutions talks about why brand name consistency matters for search, AI-generated answers, local listings, customer trust, referrals, and long-term visibility. Many businesses have small name inconsistencies scattered across the internet. Your website may use one version, your invoices another, your social media handles another, and old proposals, directories, reviews, press mentions, or team bios may show something slightly different. While people may understand that these names point to the same company, search engines, AI tools, local platforms, and third-party sources may not connect the dots as easily.

22 JUL 2026 · Is Google AI changing your website traffic? Quite possibly, but the real answer is in your data. In this episode of the Elevated Marketing Podcast, Jennifer Denney, founder of Elevated Marketing Solutions, talks through Google AI Overviews and AI Mode and what they may mean for your website traffic, SEO, and marketing results.
Website traffic has been a major marketing measurement for years, but AI-powered search is changing how people find answers. Some users may get what they need directly from Google AI Overviews or continue their research inside AI Mode before ever clicking through to a website. That can lead to fewer clicks, even when your business is still being seen.
Jennifer explains the difference between Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, and other AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude. She also shares why Google Search Console is still one of the most important places to look when trying to understand what is happening with your visibility, impressions, clicks, and conversions.

8 JUL 2026 · AI has made marketing faster, but has it actually made it clearer? In this episode, we unpack the biggest paradoxes shaping modern marketing, especially for business owners and marketing leaders who are trying to make smarter decisions without getting buried in tools, dashboards, automation, and generic AI-generated content.
The truth is, AI can help businesses move faster, but speed alone does not create trust, clarity, leads, or revenue. Buyers are still human. They still need proof. They still compare options. They still want confidence before they take action. We talk through why the fundamentals matter more than ever, even as marketing technology gets more advanced. Tired of vague marketing advice?

1 JUL 2026 · Clicks are down, traffic looks flat, and yet sales keeps hearing, “Yeah, we’ve heard of you.” So what’s actually happening? In this episode, we break down why the old “more website clicks equals better marketing” scorecard is failing, and what to measure instead, now that discovery and trust-building often happen off-site, in search results, reviews, social, video, podcasts, and even AI-generated answers.

17 JUN 2026 · There’s a point where doing your own marketing stops being “scrappy” and starts being expensive, not because you’re bad at it, but because the business outgrows what one person, or a stretched team, can execute consistently. In this episode, we walk through a clean decision framework to help you choose the right model, DIY, contractors, an agency, in-house, or a hybrid approach, without wasting another quarter guessing.
We’ll break down the real reasons each approach works, where it tends to break, and what “ready for an agency” actually looks like when you care about pipeline, booked calls, and predictable lead flow. If you’ve been busy with marketing tasks but you’re not seeing momentum, this will help you spot the operational issues behind the scenes, then make a confident decision for the next 90 days.

3 JUN 2026 · When someone says, “We need leads in the next 30 to 60 days,” it usually isn’t a marketing request, it’s a stability request. In this episode, we break down the three real reasons that timeline suddenly becomes urgent: a market shift that dries up your usual demand, a breakdown after marketing where leads come in but don’t convert, or inconsistent marketing that creates a spiky pipeline.
We also talk through the “ads as a faucet” trap, why speeding up lead flow can expose operational problems, and what “fast” looks like when you do it responsibly. If you’re feeling pressure to produce leads quickly, this will help you diagnose what’s actually happening so you can make smart moves, not expensive guesses.
