What happens when you recommend your favorite restaurant to a friend? Or when you post about a product that changed your routine? You've just engaged in marketing. Not the pushy, salesy kind we've learned to ignore, but something far more powerful: authentic human connection that influences decisions. This realization sits at the heart of a shift that's transformed how business works. The old playbook-interrupt, broadcast, repeat-has been replaced by something more organic.
