Explaining why marketing jobs are rebrandedfrom @mirandadoesbrands

[01]

Overview

The creator presents her theory that marketing jobs are being rebranded with new titles like 'growth' and 'go-to-market' to appeal more to men. She argues this is because AI has increased the value of marketing (distribution), and since the field was historically undervalued, it needs new terminology to sound more 'legit'.

Transcript

I'm convinced marketing is currently being rebranded as growth and go to market, so the boys will do it too. Because I keep seeing job descriptions like this, and then the actual tasks are all marketing and social media related. And I just think it's really interesting because AI is changing what jobs we assign value to. Historically, marketing has never been taken that seriously, and it's always been lower down the ranks in the organizational hierarchy. Now that's changing because now that anyone can vibe code with AI, the biggest bottleneck is now distribution. How can you make people care? Essentially, marketing. But because marketing has been undervalued for all these years, we're now finding ways to rebrand it to make it sound more legit.
