Speaker 1: Hello, I'm Keri Gard and welcome to Tea Time with Tech Marketing Leaders. Speaker 2: It's helpful to a degree, but it's not a be-all end-all, nor does it have the potential to truly replace great coffee writing. Speaker 1: Welcome back to the show. I hope you didn't mind a little hiatus last week and maybe even got to check out our other podcast called What's The Problem hosted by my business partner, Mike Kras. I really appreciate the break, but don't worry, we are back this week. I have an amazing guest who joined me. Her name is Katherine Strachan and she is the CEO of Copy House. She's in the UK along with myself and she's also an American. So it's very cool to reconnect with another American, also in the marketing world and to just jive back and forth and share ideas. She is on the fast track in terms of what her company is doing in the way that they write content for complex B2B companies. She's very smart, very on point, very concise, and it made for a great conversation. In this episode, Katherine and I unpack trends that are happening right now in copy and writing and how AI is impacting it and at the end of the day, you still need, especially in marketing, you still need that refinement. It's great to get ideas from AI and chat GPT, but at the end of the day, you need somebody to really bring that content to life who truly understands not just the market, but your product and the power of it. And that's what Katherine is out to do. So without further ado, here is my conversation with Katherine Strachan. Hello, Katherine. Thank you for joining me on Tea Time with Tech Marketing Leaders. So excited to have you. Hi, thank you for having me here. Yeah, it's going to be awesome. I'm really excited for our conversation. I think it's going to really resonate with what's happening in the world today, spoiler alert. But before we get there, tell us what you think about the future of AI. What's about yourself, Katherine? What's your story? What do you do and how did you get there? Speaker 2: Yeah, so I am Katherine Strachan. I'm the managing director and owner of Coffee House. Coffee House is a content marketing agency specializing in the B2B tech space. We do everything from content strategy, where we help clients at the foundation and determine their core messaging and identify their audience to content production, where we help bring this to life with copywriting, content design, and B2B social. We've been going for about three years now, and it's been a crazy ride going from just team of one to a team of 25. And today we work with some really big clients like Metta and Clarna and have a really great roster of clients across the fintech and health tech and ensure tech spaces. Yeah, it's been a really crazy ride. I feel like three years is like three decades. Speaker 1: Yeah. That's super fast to reach the scale that you have. What's your, what's sort of your differentiator? Why it sounds like you sort of carved out this niche for yourself in a way that people are really gravitating towards? What do you think that is? Speaker 2: Yeah, I would say having a really clear proposition. So we do content marketing for B2B tech companies. You know, it means that we don't have a lot of competition because there's not a lot of content marketing agencies out there and the ones that are more generalized. So a lot of our clients struggle to find people who can write for them, who understand what they do enough to be able to create a really high quality piece of content. And you know, they'll try these generalist agencies and not get the results that they want. So when they come to us and you know, everything about us is baked into that, everything from our processes to the team that we've recruited to how we recruit and you know, only keeping our content in-house and not using any freelancers or you know, not outsourcing any of it, keeping it in-house. Every element of what we do is designed for the B2B tech space. So you know, we've really owned that niche and that's allowed us to massively punch above our weight. You know, when we won Metta, that was one of the reasons that they said that they chose to work with us was that our focus in the B2B tech space as well as my leadership. So I think that's another thing that has massively helped is marketing actually. So since the very early days, we've always invested really heavily in our own marketing. You know, we've had a marketing manager and had dedicated budget and really went hard to promote the coffee house brand. And you know, Metta would have only known about my leadership via my personal brand and via like the content we were creating about the company and about the company culture because we had only had, you know, an hour, maybe pitch time with them and that's not necessarily something that comes through during a pitch. So you know, it just goes to show the power of your own marketing and I think it is something, especially agencies and smaller brands often don't do is they don't invest in themselves. But you know, everything that you make, if you really want to grow, should be going back into the company. Speaker 1: I think it's really interesting how you've knit down in terms of not just B2B tech, but also the fact that you are not an everything agency. We we decided to do something similar. We sort of had a crossroads where we started taking on more capability. We're starting to sign websites. We were starting to create content. We were starting to do all these other things outside of SEO and digital ads. And we came to that fork in the road where it was like we could either try and we got to do one or the other. We can't be everything to everybody. We're not going to be good at any of this. And so I think that is being specialized in that way, I think is a huge help because I think the general agencies are trying. I don't want to say trying to hard, but like it's they're not special. They're not it's kind of like buying, you know, those all in one machines where they say they can do everything. It's like, and they don't do any of them well. Right. So yeah, well, I mean, I Speaker 2: think a lot of companies struggle to niche down because they're scared that by doing so, they'll limit their options. But I'm a firm believer that actually the opposite is true. So I have a networking goal of meeting 15 new people every month. And that's brought some really great opportunities, but it's allowed me as well to hear lots of people's elevator pitches. And when I hear pitches like we're full service digital marketing agency that works across all industries, I just don't know what to do with it. I don't know who to introduce them to projects to think of them for. I just I don't know how to help them where when I meet somebody who says we do X for Y, I know exactly, oh, OK, I know five other people who work in that space or, you know, oh, I just heard about this project the other day, and it's much easier to make things happen because people know what to do with you. So I'm a firm believer, you know, whether it's brands or agencies that like sticking your flag in the ground and really owning what it is that you do well is a massive strength. And it doesn't limit your opportunities. It actually makes them a lot bigger. I totally agree. Speaker 1: How did you get copy house started? Did you just decide one day you were going to, you know, write for brands? Did you set out with a business plan? What sort of how did you get started? Speaker 2: By accident. I don't think I knew that I was setting up an agency when I set up an agency. I had gone freelance after, you know, struggling to find my place in the world. You know, I had had my daughter around the same time, so she was really young at the time. And, you know, it was really difficult to find a role that would support me to have her, but also to have a career. I'm a really super ambitious person, so I wanted to have a big career. I wanted to want it and still want to do really big things. You know, I think I'm only just getting started, so there's lots more to come. But I wanted that and I wanted to, you know, well, I did have her as well. So I needed something that would do both and struggled to find it. So I went freelance and it was pretty quickly into my freelance journey that I started to not be able to do everything on my own and needed help. So started to hire. So I started to hire not with necessarily the intention of I want to have an agency, but with the intention of I don't want to do everything. And yeah, I mean, that's kind of always been my motto. You know, we have a really, we're 25 people now and I don't do almost anything, which yeah, it's a really nice place to be. I haven't written any content in over a year. I don't even remember how to do it. And yeah, my focus today is to do lots of podcasts and speaking and branding, brand ambassador, you know, that sort of thing. But I, I don't know how to do any of the actual day to day anymore. Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm in the same boat. I rely heavily on my experts who have really deep knowledge of their service lines and it's nice to fly higher and talk about their greatness and go on podcasts and, you know, market the agency and talk about them really. It's so much more fun. Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, I, they're much better at it than I could ever dream to be. We, about a year ago, hired a content director to come in and oversee the creative team. So before that, we had had a content lead who was kind of my prodigy. You know, I had taught him absolutely everything I knew and really invested heavily in him. He left to move to the US to marry his lifelong partner who he'd been with for like five years and, you know, do the whole US life. So he left sadly. And it wasn't until we brought in this content director who has like 30 years experience and like really knows his stuff that I started to not identify as a copywriter. And that really allowed me to break away from it. You know, our content lead, while I was really sad to see him go, he could also only take us as far as I could take us because I had taught him everything you knew, where our content director could come in and have a totally different spin, a totally different approach and, you know, get the same, if not better, most of the time answer. And that was quite a transition. That was quite a big, like difficult thing to do, to like have him come into the team and like to get used to working with him and to know what, you know, where my role stopped and where his started. And I mean, there's definitely some growing pains there and like moments of contention. But we got past some and now we're really good friends. And now I'm I know I'm not a copywriter. Speaker 1: That's that's awesome. And it sounds like that's me. That was one of your challenges that you were having when you initially hired him. What's what's a challenge you're currently having now? Speaker 2: I think a challenge that we're having at the moment is just around recruitment. It's quite a difficult market to recruit in. And we have really big goals and really big growth plans. So we, especially because we keep everything in house, have to do a lot of recruitment. And we have a head of people who is brilliant, but the candidates can sometimes be not the greatest. So we've made a few offers and then had people accept them and then fall off the face of the earth. We've had people accept offers and then we've found out on LinkedIn that they actually accepted a job elsewhere. And, you know, recruiters get a lot of slack or not, you know, not great treatment of candidates, but candidates can also be kind of crummy sometimes too. Speaker 1: Yeah, stuff. It's tough market out there. Ghosting on both sides is unfortunately very real. And so I think it's made candidates really hardened. And then I think it for those of us that don't go to Canada, it's really hard. Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we have one role where we've probably on our third attempt. We're just about to make an offer today and hopefully that will be the last one because, yeah, we've had two offers accepted. You know, they've said yes and then just have fallen off the face of the earth. So I would say our biggest challenge is recruitment. Speaker 1: Recruiting. Yeah, that makes a ton of sense is tough out there for sure. Let's talk about, you know, you're saying you're not a copywriter anymore, but your agency is very much all about copywriting. And so the expertise is still there in understanding what your company does, right? Even though I'm not a digital ads expert anymore, I still understand what my team is up to and what they're doing and how they operate. So that I can make sure that operations are running smoothly to make sure I can speak to it, make sure we can market it, all that fun jazz. So you might not be doing the doing anymore, but from my understanding in our previous conversation, you do still understand what, how they're, or maybe you're also doing this, but in terms of adopting chat, chat, GPT and AI, I mean, how has that impacted your agency as a whole? Has it? Speaker 2: Yeah, to a degree. And, you know, it's part of our senior leadership discussions because we're looking at how we can maybe use it for not for content creation, but for like proofreading, for example. You know, I think that AI has greater potential to proofread a piece of content because it's more able to pick up errors and in spelling and things than, you know, perhaps the human eyes, which, you know, we all know that if you spend five, six hours writing something, sometimes you become like blind to the mistakes in it because you've spent so long looking at it that you can't see, you know, a simple spelling error or something like this where AI could be a really interesting use case for proofreading or for, you know, coming up with creative ideas. It still would need a human input because not all those ideas would be relevant or suitable, but it could be, you know, a unique way to think outside the box. So there are definitely some potentials with it and, you know, we're playing around and talking about it at the senior level. You know, it also can play into operations, into like how we schedule things and, you know, perhaps not chat GPT itself because it's more of a respond and answer sort of tool, but AI in general could be quite helpful with things like scheduling and planning and, you know, moving pieces around and understanding what needs to go where. So yeah, it certainly has some really interesting potential, though it's also, I think it's also really important to understand the difference between the potential and the hype. So since chat GPT came out in like November, it's had a massive hype around it. So everybody's talking about it every time you go on LinkedIn. And there is an element of it that is that is that that is hype that, you know, is, you know, a new fun tool to play with and kind of over eggs. It's potential and it's possibilities. So I think anybody who's looking at it kind of needs to think about it rationally and reasonably and not buy into all of the hype. And, you know, obviously, that's not to say that there's not potential there there is. But is it going to replace coffee writers? Probably not. I mean, the content we do, we do a lot of thought leadership content. So we do a lot of content where we interview subject matter experts and then take their insights and turn into a really high quality piece of content. And it's a very far away away from doing that. You know, it has some really serious, it can have some really serious implications. If it's not monitored, we saw this the other week when Google's barred technology wiped billions off of its value for giving the wrong answer. I mean, if you're a brand, you really want to be publishing something that could be incorrect because that that is one of its pitfalls. You know, it's very good at making it seem like it is the correct answer, even if it is not. So, you know, we have to be aware of these limitations. You know, the fact that chat GBT doesn't have any more recent information since 2021. Now, if you're working in the financial space in the payment regulation space, that means that almost all of that content is going to be out of date. So do you want to publish content that's out of date? Because, you know, all marketers know that a blog from 2021 probably needs to be updated. You know, it doesn't do SEO, it doesn't do citations, you can't be research backed. So it's helpful to a degree, but it's not not a be all end all nor does it have the potential to truly replace great copywriting. Speaker 1: Is your team experimenting with it at all right now? Are you experimenting with it? How are you figuring this out? It sounds like you're using it to a degree to understand the potential, but also the height. Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't use it in like our day-to-day operations, but we are playing around with it and thinking about ways that it could help us do what we do better. But it's very much in like the research and development in the R &D stage rather than in like the actual implementation stage. You know, we wouldn't use it on any of our clients' content at the moment because it's not really developed enough to be able to do something like that. Even on like the proofreading, you know, it still can't be 110% trusted to, you know, pick up grammatical errors. So it's something that we're thinking about and investigating and doing research and development into, but isn't something that we're implementing in our day-to-day activities. Speaker 1: I've been dabbling very loosely going to say that. I am not a heavy user by any stretch. I do have people in the team who are not not necessarily for a lot of client work, more around research tools as one research tool of many. Also like idea starters, like you mentioned, but they use it a lot more than I've dabbled. And the challenge I have with it is tone. I feel like I have a very, I don't say unique, but I have a way of talking because I've just lived in so many different places. And so how I talk is, you know, I think if you talk to me enough and then you go read something that I wrote, you can be like, I can totally hear your voice in that. It's very clear. And I can't, it's totally lost. Like you, like I asked Chachi and Mithita to write me a link did post because I wanted to see what would happen. So I fed it, you know, some transcript, a simple down transcript from one of my podcasts. I, I fed it some other information. And then I said, can you write me a LinkedIn post about this topic? And it did. And I was like, this doesn't sound like me. And then I went out to start to get it to sound like me. And then rewriting it from scratch. Speaker 2: You have to be able to control its voice, which means that you have to know how to describe your own tone of voice. So if you have, if you have like a tone of voice guideline for you yourself, you'd be able to tell that, tell chat GBT, write this post like a 10 year old boy or write this post like a midwesterner, you know, whatever it was that you wanted it, but you would need to know how to describe your own voice. And I think that's something that most brands, especially in the V2B space tend to struggle with, you know, when you see their tone of voice guidelines, it's knowledgeable, helpful, friendly, professional. And, you know, unless they've had it professionally done, it tends to be pretty like standard across the board, which makes it difficult to create content that is unique when you're, when you can't listen to a voice and pick it out. So, you know, being able to tell chat GBT, you know, write this post like a friendly, helpful, professional, knowledgeable person, probably isn't going to produce the best results because it's not able to read between those lines and actually understand the tone of voice that should be used for that brand when the tone of voice like adjectives most brands use are pretty nondescript. Speaker 1: Yeah, I just find maybe it's just I have to retrain my brain on how to think about it, but it feels like more work to like train this thing and help it. Maybe it'll be something in the long run, like if you take the time now to sort of, but it doesn't remember either, right? It's got, it remembers for that specific window you're building, but it's got a certain lifespan in terms of like what it can remember to write. It's not always. Yeah. Speaker 2: I mean, one of the interesting uses is for responding to emails. So I can see this perhaps becoming like a business integration in the future where chat GBT can actually respond to and it does this pretty well because, you know, most emails are relatively easy to respond to, but it can take, you know, a big long email and create an understandable like response. So having it to answer some of your emails, you know, something that is less personal than perhaps your LinkedIn post is one way you could use it. That's interesting. Yeah. Speaker 1: I think what I'm just trying to figure out from that, you know, from a copywriting standpoint and all the things you will bring to the table naturally between tone and feeling, I just feel like when I'm, unless you really prompt, prompt and prompt and prompt and prompt to get it to really say something thoughtful, it feels like it, like I'm saying, it's in some ways more work because what we feel naturally as humans versus trying to teach an AI that for something we could have written, I just, I guess I'm just trying to understand, like, to your point, you said that there's potential and there's emails, is a good example of that. You said copywriters aren't going away. Do you see the potential in the way that it could produce content or is it more behind the scenes operational? It's, is sort of what I'm getting from the things you're saying. Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, it can, it can create basic content. So I mean, something like top 10 castles in Scotland. I mean, it's not particularly hard to write that. And there's a bajillion other blogs out there on the top 10 castles in Scotland. So I think it could do a half decent job at writing something like that. I mean, it's already used by the media to do, you know, football, football plays because they can take the information on the screen and turn it into, you know, a play by play written, written summary of the game. You know, it could be, I remember back in my very early career, spending hours and hours and hours writing page titles and meta descriptions. And, you know, rather than having a junior copywriter write 500 page titles and meta descriptions, you could have an AI tool do something like that. So I think what it will do is it will take a lot of like the more basic menial copywriting casts, which there, there are plenty of, and it will take over those. And, you know, in five years, maybe even sooner from now, you know, copywriters won't be doing that. But I read a really great quote the other day. And I think it's really true is that technology is never taken away jobs. It's only made more. And I think, you know, AI is no different. It will create more opportunities than it will take away and what it will take away. You know, I remember being so bored writing all those meta descriptions that I wouldn't wish on anybody. Why not give it to a machine? Speaker 1: Do you think it takes away an element of practice and learning, though, to remove more of those mundane tasks? Or do you like, in just in terms of training potential, if AI does all of those things, then what's the training path become for somebody who wants to be a copywriter? Does it become more in depth, bigger pieces of content out of the gate? Does it become more how to guys? Speaker 2: I'm not sure, but they'll probably need to hit the ground running a lot quicker. You know, if a lot of those more menial tasks are taken away, then, you know, they might, they'll probably need to hit the ground running a lot quicker. But I mean, it's probably a long way away before all brands are using AI to write, you know, 10 best castles in Scotland. So there'll be some 10 best castles in Scotland blogs for junior copywriters to write. I've definitely written a few in my very early career. So I mean, I, there will be other things that they can be trained on. And, you know, I am not in charge of copywriting training anymore. So I don't have to think about their growth and development because our really brilliant content director does all that. But yeah, I'm not sure. Speaker 1: It's going to be an interesting challenge, I think that we're going to face as, because to your point, I think it'll make more jobs, but it'll be, the jobs will be different. They'll be, they'll just be very different. Speaker 2: But I mean, our jobs today are way different than even our parents jobs would have been. I mean, we're doing this podcast by Zoom. That wouldn't have been something that in the late 90s would be possible. I don't even know that they had podcasts in the late 90s, maybe a radio show, but not podcasts. So I mean, there's our jobs, our lives today are a million times different than our parents at our age or our grandparents at our age. And that doesn't mean that like, you know, there aren't junior positions these days, of course there are, but they're probably look a lot different than in our parents' days or in the madmen days where like, yeah, you were literally running paper between rooms. Our content director actually who has about 30 years experience in the creative industry remembers having to facts, amends to clients. So, you know, we rely on email, right? Like we send our work to clients by email, but imagine if you had to post it, like put it in the mail to get it to clients. You know, that's just unfathomable. Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it's true. It's interesting to think about what jobs to your point, like podcast, I mean, there's careers in that now, which wasn't a thing. So it'll be interesting to see what this AI frees up in terms of not having to do certain things to allow you to do other things. So one thing that the, my previous guest, Sarah mentioned about AI and how he's thinking about it is volume. So like, to write a few pieces of ad copy and then have the AI produce variations of it, and then ABI, and then use AI to ABI, you know, and then you pump through your ad platforms and then ABI test it, right? Just from like a volume standpoint, how it's going to just like digital photography change the game. And it could be interesting too, and seeing how this has copywriting and how we think about content sort of evolve that way from a volume perspective. But I think it does have a lot of potential. I hope that the potential's for good. Speaker 2: Well, sure, it will be. I mean, every ever great change in technology has always been kind of met with fear or hesitation. You know, so when computers first came out or smartphones, you know, the same sort of like, what does this mean for future generations? And you know, will it have a positive impact on the world? And you know, obviously not all technology has, it's massively contributed to global warming, and there's some real downsides to being so technology advanced. But on the whole, I mean, I would say at least from my position, it's made like these these advances in technology have made life a lot better. And it allowed us to do things that were far outside the imagination, you know, being able to work remotely, to be able to work from a beach in Bali, or, you know, wherever it is that you want to work is incredible, even for a few decades, you know, a few decades ago that wouldn't have been anywhere possible, where now, you know, you can, as long as you're kind of working on the same time zone, you can go literally anywhere in the whole world. Yeah. Speaker 1: I mean, with async, you know, between video and Lume and Asana and Zoom and all the things, I mean, we work cross five different time zones. And you see the right systems and processes to do that. And technology is definitely at the backbone of making that happen. It's true. I wouldn't, I don't know that I'd be living. Speaker 2: You hear stories of people who traveled in like even 10, 10, 15 years ago, and their families would have to send mail to a post office where they thought they might be in a few months time. I mean, you can't work like that, obviously. So being able to, yeah, take your work wherever is suited for you and being able to move around and take advantage of the internet and email, these things that we take for granted now, I mean, can you imagine not having Wi-Fi or email are, yeah, advances in technology that certainly made our lives easier and better and allowed work to be more of an integration rather than like a, you must be here to work. Speaker 1: That's true. It's definitely true. It's going to be interesting to see where AI and chat GPT and things like that sort of take us as new tools, you know, come out of it, that try and I don't want to say fake feeling and empathy, but I know that that's already sort of in the works. There's tools out there to detect if it's AI written, there's tools already out coming out to not necessarily combat it, but to offset it, which is off, you know, it's going to be interesting to see where it goes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, definitely. Potential. Thank you so much, Catherine. I'm so grateful for your insight into how you're thinking about it as a copywriter. I think there's a lot of questions around. I feel like you sort of took, you didn't take the air out of it, but like you brought us back down to reality and I think we needed some grounding. And so I'm grateful for this conversation. Thank you so much. Before we close out, I do have that call my people first questions, a chance for people to get to know you beyond being the marketer that you are if you're ready. Yeah, go for it. Here we go. First one, have you picked up any new hobbies these last, well, I mean, you started your business the middle of the pandemic, but right before the pandemic, but maybe outside of your business, have you picked up any other hobbies? Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I recently got back into skiing. So I grew up at the bottom of ski mountain and grew up as in my early 20s was a ski instructor at one of Veil's big resorts in Northern California. And about three weeks ago, went skiing the Alts for six days and literally today have booked another like five day trip in Italy in a couple of weeks time. So I would say my newest hobby is, but it's not a new hobby because I've been doing it my whole life as well. My newest regained hobby, I should say is skiing. Speaker 1: Love it. Love it. And what a great place to be next to to be able to go do that. I mean, the option. Oh, I don't know if we mentioned this, but Catherine's in London. So that's why. Yeah. Second question, if you could travel to anywhere in the world, which sounds like you're about to with this while these ski trips. But if there's anywhere else you'd want to go, where would you go and why? Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm going through a little bit of a weird phase at the moment where I'm not traveling too much because I spent all of last year on the road traveling Latin America. So my family and I, we traveled all about Latin America for a whole year. We were moving to new hotels every three, four days and we saw literally all of it. So we feel a little tired of traveling now. So I was going to go to Indonesia in March, but actually I've decided that I want to do things a little bit different this year and keep my feet on the ground and stay in London and be settled for once rather than hopping about and traveling here, there and everywhere and spending months at a time and beaches and Bali and, you know, wherever else. Instead, I'm going to do something radically different and stay in one place. Speaker 1: It sounds like you sort of got your can't travel for two years bug out of your system last year with going all out. So that's awesome. Speaker 2: I overdid it a little bit. Speaker 1: I take a break and settle back in until you get the bug again. That's great. Last question for you is, it sounds like your team's remote. Are you all in London? Speaker 2: I'm in London, but my team's fully remote, but we travel as and when we need to. So we're all going to, well, about five of us are going to Brighton tomorrow to see one of our clients. And we run workshops in person in London and host client events and do lots of things here in London. But the team's fully remote as well. So it does mean that, you know, we have to travel sometimes, but it's a nice model because we don't need to be in London every day. Speaker 1: I love it. If you could put a song out there, like if your team was together and you sort of to sum up the vibe of your team through song, what song would you pick? Speaker 2: Jeez. I don't know. I don't know too many songs off top of my head or not one that would fit us. Speaker 1: Well, if you think of one, you want to get back to me. You're welcome to do so. We have a Spotify playlist. We add two. No pressure. Speaker 2: I'm going to go ask my team because they create Spotify playlist to share with one another. They will have a much better answer than I will. Yeah, I listen to music when I'm doing exercise. So don't particularly pay attention to the songs. I'm climbing a rock wall or skiing down the slopes of 60 miles an hour and care more about the beat than I do about what the actual name of the song is. So I'm kind of massively behind on my pop pop knowledge. Speaker 1: It's all good. Awesome. Thank you so much, Catherine. I'm so grateful. Thank you for having me.
