Marketer / 4 Under 40 / Midjourney Expert / Novel brand & creative direction for brands who want to leverage AI

I believe creativity is curiosity with something to prove.

I’ve spent the last decade scaling B2B SaaS brands, driving $130M in marketing-sourced revenue, and leading teams through multiple product launches, all while maintaining my sanity. Along the way, I picked up a peer-nominated American Marketing Association 4 Under 40 Award (2023).

As a first-mover with Gen AI, I broke out on my own midway through 2023 to provide novel creative and brand direction for teams that wanted to leverage AI in their visual storytelling. 

Since then, I’ve partnered with clients like Marriott, Brooklyn Nets, Rebel Kitchen, Klar, Buddy, and Indiewalls, while offering AI creative guidance and education to brands like Meta, TikTok, Ogilvy, McCann, Google, and VaynerMedia.

The journey has been incredibly rewarding. It also reminded me of something essential: the magic of working toward a shared vision with a great team. That’s what brought me to Goldcast.

Goldcast is empathetically changing how marketers connect with decision-makers by creating AI-first tools and workflows that solve actual challenges.

I co-host Midjourney Fast Hours, a podcast for creatives using Gen AI who are navigating this new frontier of visual storytelling.

My superpowers: creativity, curiosity, Gen AI, content, brand, design, innovation, growth mindset

B2B marketing attribution you don’t have to make up. 

Dee Acosta 📱

Here’s a super simple way to find out if your marketing is actually doing anything.

Take your target account list. Doesn’t matter if it’s 50, 100, or 500 accounts.
 
For now, let’s say 100. Split them into two groups of 50.

Group A:
 Run paid ads to them. Nothing fancy - just consistent air cover.
 One week later, have sales start outbounding those same accounts.

Group B:
 No ads. No air cover.
 Sales just does their normal outbound thing.

Now wait until the end of the month and compare:
 - Outbound → Meeting rate
 - Meeting → SAO rate
 - Pipeline created

And if you want to be really honest with yourself, check the full sales cycle, too.

Every time I’ve seen this test run, the same thing happens:

The accounts that saw marketing convert higher.
 Outbound lands better.
 Meetings happen faster.
 Sales doesn’t have to drag people across the finish line.

No attribution model. No dashboards. No politics.
 
 Just reality.

If marketing is actually warming up your market, you’ll see it instantly.

And if it’s not… well, that’s useful to know too.

Hard to trust a company when they've lied to you for over a decade. 😡 

Intent is a core attribute of a 6QA. 

I've been saying this forever, and it feels like no one believed me. 


To quote a former president, “There's an old saying in Tennessee - I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee, that says, fool me once, shame on, shame on you. Fool me, you can't get fooled again.” #6Sense #intent #B2Bmarketing
