1 At Bat Media

As the Founder and CEO of 1 At Bat Media, I lead a team of eCommerce experts specializing in paid media, email marketing, and customer retention strategies for brands across North America.

Our Services Include:

• Paid Media (Social & Search)
• Email & SMS Marketing (Klaviyo)
• Influencer Marketing

Founder / CEO

JackedScholar Inc.

As the Founder of JackedScholar, I built and scaled a niche eCommerce brand offering nutritional supplements tailored to post-secondary students across Canada and the United States. Through innovative marketing strategies and a deep understanding of our target audience, I successfully grew the brand into a trusted name within the supplement industry.

Key Highlights:

	•	Created and implemented paid media, email marketing, and customer retention strategies that drove sustainable growth and established a loyal customer base.
	•	Developed a strong direct-to-consumer model, expanding the brand’s reach across North America and solidifying its market presence.
	•	Led the brand through a competitive landscape, ensuring continuous growth and positioning it for acquisition.

In November 2018, JackedScholar was acquired by SupplementSource.ca, a leading national competitor in the supplement space. This successful exit was the result of years of strategic planning and marketing innovation, and it laid the groundwork for my current focus on helping other brands achieve similar growth and success through 1 At Bat Media.

Hiring great people is hard.

Letting them lead is harder.

Most companies bring in great talent...

Then spend half the week telling them what to do.

That’s a colossal waste of time, energy, and money.

The whole point of hiring great people is to let them show you a better way.
To bring solutions you wouldn’t have thought of.
To push your thinking, not just execute it.

Here’s how I think about it:

→ Hire great people.

→ Give them space - to learn, observe, and understand.

→ Align on where you’re headed - and where they want to take you.

→ Then get out of the way.

If they’re really the right hire,
they’ll tell you what to do — not the other way around.

One of my favorite leadership quotes:
"Train people well enough so they can leave.
Treat them well enough so they don’t want to."

This is exactly what happens when you teach your marketing team to speak finance.

Train them well:
→ Show how cohort data translates into company revenue
→ Explain how revenue and margin flows through P&L
→ Teach the principles of variable vs. fixed expenses
→ Demonstrate how investment shifts impact short- and long-term outcomes

✅ Now they understand the impact of the investment they deploy and how it maps to the company financials.

Treat them well:
→ Make sure they have clear targets
→ Stop having strategy meetings without them
→ Let them own the north star and give them the tools to track progress
→ Actually listen when they share what’s working

✅ Now they’re challenged, trusted, and empowered to execute the how while working with you on the what.

In turn, as CMO you elevate yourself to focus on what matters - the why
1️⃣ Challenge the company’s long-term assumptions and investment strategies with CEO
2️⃣ Brainstorm with the CFO on new ways to win
3️⃣ Have a real seat at the board table

Everyone working toward the same goal
That’s when marketing turns into growth.

Most people stop at “I can’t.”

But the real breakthrough happens when you switch it to “I’ll learn.”

That small shift rewires how you face challenges:

Obstacles turn into opportunities
Failures become feedback
Effort becomes progress

The truth is, you don’t need to know everything right now.
You just need to be willing to learn.

👉 What’s one skill you once thought you couldn’t do - but later learned?

Consistency looks boring… until it looks magical.

At first, showing up every day feels like nothing’s happening.
No big wins. No applause. No visible transformation.

But consistency is a quiet builder.
It compounds. It stacks invisible progress.
And one day, the results look “sudden” to everyone else.

The truth is...

Success is rarely about doing one thing once.
It’s about doing the small, unglamorous things over and over — until everything changes.

✨ Keep showing up. The change is already in motion.

Marketing looks fun… until you’re five years in.

Welcome to real-life marketing: 
Where creativity meets chaos.

Everyone thinks it’s just coffee, brainstorms, and clever ideas.

But five years later, you’re managing clients, chasing deadlines, fixing broken links, and still explaining why "going viral" isn't a strategy.

If you know, you know.

Why Do Employees Really Stay? It’s Not Just Money...

While salary matters, it’s not the main reason people stay.

Here are 10 powerful motivators that make people commit:


1. Feeling valued

 Recognition builds loyalty and long-term
 emotional commitment.

2. Strong leadership

 Good leaders create trust, vision, and
 consistent support.

3. Growth opportunities

 People stay where they see a future for
 themselves.

4. Respectful culture

 Toxic environments push people away - 
 respect keeps them.

5. Work-life balance

 Burnout kills motivation; balance builds
 sustainable performance.

6. Meaningful work

 Purpose drives passion more than perks ever
 will.

7. Team camaraderie

 Feeling connected at work creates strong
 emotional ties.

8. Fair treatment

 Consistency and justice boost morale and
 build trust.

9. Autonomy and trust

 Empowered people feel proud and stay
 committed longer.

10. Good communication

 Clear, honest dialogue prevents confusion
 and builds unity.


Don’t just hire. Build reasons for people to stay.


Which of these matters most to you as an employee or leader?


Let’s open the conversation - drop your thoughts below.

The smartest people I’ve met have one thing in common —
they’re teachable.

They ask questions.
They listen more than they speak.
They’re not afraid to say, “I don’t know — but I’ll find out.”

Being teachable isn’t a weakness.
It’s a superpower.

Because when you think you already know everything, you stop growing.
But when you stay curious, you keep evolving.

👉 Stay humble. Stay open. Stay teachable.

Stop wasting your budget.

Marketing without data is reckless.

You lose your edge.

Old-school marketing relied on gut feelings and guesswork. 

That era is over.

Today, data is everywhere. 

Every click, every view, every purchase leaves a trail.

Here’s how to open your eyes and win with data-driven marketing:

✅ Know why data matters:

- Data shows what your customers want.
- Data reveals what works and what fails.
- Data helps you spend less and earn more.
- Data gives you proof, not just guesses.

✅ Analyze and act:

1. Review your numbers weekly.
2. Spot trends and patterns.
3. Double down on what works.
4. Cut what doesn’t.
5. Test new ideas, but always measure results.

✅ Avoid common mistakes:

- Never trust your gut alone.
- Don’t ignore small data points.
- Don’t drown in too much data, focus on what matters.
- Don’t forget about privacy and consent.

✅ The best marketers are data-driven:

- They know what works, and why.
- They move faster and smarter.
- They build trust with real results.

Think of data as your marketing GPS.

It guides every move:

• Who to target
• What message to send
• When to launch
• Where to invest
• How to adjust

If you are still marketing without data, you are not just behind.

You are lost.

Marketing is changing fast. 

Data is your edge. 

Use it well, and you’ll never drive blind again.

Marketing without humor
is like pizza without cheese

You can serve it 

But 

No one’s coming back for seconds.
Funny doesn’t mean unprofessional.

It means relatable.
It means human.

People don’t remember the product.
They remember how you made them feel.

So make them feel good.

Add flavor to your brand. 
Not just features.

Career growth isn’t just about getting better.

→ It’s about learning what actually matters.

10 Things No One Tells You About Growing Your Career

1. Your manager isn’t tracking your progress.
→ If you don’t document it, no one else will.

2. Promotions are rarely about skill.
→ They’re about trust, timing, and visibility.

3. Quiet loyalty will cost you more than leaving ever will.
→ The market rewards movement more than tenure.

4. You will outgrow your manager before your role.
→ Don’t wait for them to notice—it’s on you to move.

5. Feedback is filtered through fear.
→ What they say isn’t always what they mean.

6. Most team culture problems are leadership problems in disguise.
→ And the fix usually starts at the top.

7. Growth won’t always feel good.
→ Sometimes it feels like boredom, frustration, or confusion.

8. If you don’t build leverage, you’ll be stuck in output.
→ Effort alone doesn’t scale.

9. You’ll regret not asking for more.
→ The people who ask, grow. The people who wait, stay stuck.

10. The right move will rarely feel “safe.”
→ But staying too long feels worse.

The rules aren’t written down.
You learn them late—or you learn them now.

Which one hit hardest for you?

Creativity is evolving faster than production ever could.
What used to take teams and timelines — now takes a single prompt.

Google’s Veo 3.1 changed how we generate cinematic video.
But invideo is changing how we create with it.

Here’s what that means for marketers, creators, and teams:

Realistic visuals — Veo 3.1 gives you film-quality lighting, motion, and consistency.

Story integration — invideo connects those clips into structured, finished stories.

Full production — scripting, editing, pacing, sound, and polish — done automatically.

It’s not about skipping the process.
It’s about removing the friction.

Because great ideas shouldn’t sit in drafts waiting for resources.
They should move — fast — from imagination to impact.

Watch Amber Crest, a full commercial created entirely using Veo 3.1 inside invideo.
Every frame and transition generated end-to-end in AI.

The takeaway:
Veo 3.1 gives you the realism.
invideo gives you the storytelling.
Together, they redefine what creative execution looks like.

A few nights ago, I watched a car commercial that stopped me mid-scroll.
The lighting, the reflections, the motion — everything looked real.
But it wasn’t filmed.

It was made entirely inside invideo using OpenAI’s new Sora 2 model.

And that moment changed how I think about what’s possible for creators.

Sora 2 can generate lifelike scenes that feel like real shoots.
But invideo turns that raw capability into full-length, cinematic stories — ads, films, branded content — all created from a single prompt.

No watermark.
No time limit.
Just a finished story in minutes.

invideo doesn’t just build visuals.
It makes creative choices — hundreds of them.
Writing, pacing, sound, emotion, edit.
All the things that used to take a full crew.

And somehow, the final result feels human.

I’ve spent years in the creative space — working with tools that made things faster or easier.
But this is different.
This feels like what happens when imagination finally meets its match in technology.
