At New Chapter Talent , we get to connect with some of the most inspiring marketing leaders across Australia and New Zealand — and a common theme keeps emerging: the quiet power of the generalist marketer . It came up again at our recent New Chapter: CMO Collective Club lunch , where several CMOs shared their love for the book Range by David Epstein. In a world that often celebrates specialisation — the data gurus, the brand purists, the performance pros — these marketers reminded us why having range is something to be proud of. The power of the generalist marketer Generalist marketers are the ultimate connectors. They see the big picture — not just the campaign, but the entire ecosystem. They bridge brand and performance, data and creativity, strategy and execution. In today’s fast-paced marketing landscape, where roles and technologies evolve constantly, that adaptability is gold. The ability to zoom out and see how it all fits together is what makes generalists invaluable to teams and organisations alike. Here’s what makes generalist marketers truly shine: They see across the entire customer journey, from awareness to retention. They bring context, connecting insights from different disciplines. They lead cross-functional teams with empathy and perspective. They can pivot quickly when business priorities or market conditions change. Why generalists thrive in modern marketing In Range, David Epstein explores how generalists often outperform specialists in complex, unpredictable environments — precisely the kind of environment marketers operate in today. Epstein’s research spans fields from sport to science to business, showing that early specialisation isn’t always the key to success. Instead, those who explore widely, draw from diverse experiences, and learn to connect ideas across disciplines are often the ones who thrive when faced with change. It’s a book that challenges the “10,000-hour rule” popularised by Malcolm Gladwell , arguing instead that breadth of experience leads to better problem-solving and innovation. For marketers navigating evolving technologies, shifting customer behaviour, and constant transformation, that insight couldn’t be more relevant. The future belongs to the adaptable The future of marketing leadership isn’t just about expertise in one domain. It’s about connection, adaptability, and curiosity . It’s about understanding how everything from brand storytelling to customer data, AI, and CX fits together to drive growth. So here’s to the curious, the adaptable, the connector-marketers who zoom out and dive in — the ones shaping what modern marketing leadership really looks like. And if you haven’t read it yet, grab a copy of Range by David Epstein . It’s a brilliant reminder that being a generalist isn’t a weakness — it’s a superpower .

The New Chapter: Marketing Collective Club officially kicked off this month — and what a launch it was! Our inaugural lunch brought together 20+ brilliant marketing leaders from across Melbourne to connect, share ideas, and spark meaningful conversations. The room buzzed with energy (and a few new LinkedIn connections too), proving one thing loud and clear — marketers are craving more opportunities to connect in person. Why We Started the Marketing Collective Club In today’s fast-paced marketing world, the role of the modern marketing leader is constantly evolving. From brand and digital transformation to data-driven strategy and customer experience, there’s a growing need for community-led learning and collaboration . That’s exactly why we launched the New Chapter: Marketing Collective Club — a space designed exclusively for CMOs and Heads of Marketing , whether you’re employed or fractional, to come together, learn from each other, share experiences , and build meaningful professional relationships. Key Takeaways from the First Event Our first event didn’t just bring people together — it reminded us why community matters. Here are a few highlights from the launch: Marketers want more connection — there’s real enthusiasm for face-to-face interaction. Lifelong learning is key — leaders are hungry to grow, evolve, and stay ahead of the curve. Collaboration beats competition — sharing insights and challenges makes us all stronger. It was truly inspiring to be surrounded by passionate, purpose-driven marketing professionals , each bringing unique perspectives to the table. What’s Next for the Marketing Collective Club The Marketing Collective Club will meet monthly on the second Thursday of each month, with each event offering something new — from thought-provoking discussions to interactive networking formats (yes, speed networking may be on the cards next time! 😉). Next event: Thursday, 13th November 2025 Venue: The Duke of Wellington – Russell Room, 146 Flinders Street, Melbourne Tickets: $69 per person (+ booking fees) Bookings are already rolling in , so if you’re keen to join, grab your ticket via the group link before spots fill up.

🎧 PODCAST ~ Season Finale Alert! We’re closing out Series 2 of CMO Chapters Podcast with a powerhouse guest — Ryan Gracie, Chief Customer & Revenue Officer at BIG W.
In this episode, Lucy chats with Ryan about bold moves, retail reinvention, and the power of resilience — and how an uncomfortable upbringing taught him to lean into challenges rather than fear them.
In this snippet, Ryan shares:
💬 “My drive isn’t to make money — money is a consequence. My drive is to see how far I can take things from a very low base.”
It’s a candid reflection on what really fuels success — curiosity, challenge, and the desire to grow, no matter where you start from.
This episode is the perfect wrap to an incredible season filled with wisdom, laughs, and career-defining insights.

🗞️ INDUSTRY NEWS ~ Marketers, this one’s worth a look: Google has officially rolled out its AI Mode for Search, calling it its “most powerful AI search experience yet.”
So what’s new?
💡 You can now ask longer, more complex queries - think “Create a walkable itinerary for my friends and me in Melbourne this Saturday…” and Google will plan it out for you!
💡 It’s powered by Gemini 2.0, meaning it can handle text, voice, and even images.
💡 Designed for exploratory searches - like planning, comparing, and understanding in-depth topics.
💡 Google promises it’s not taking clicks away from websites - in fact, early tests show users are visiting a wider variety of sites and spending more time on them.
For marketers, this signals a shift in SEO strategy and search behaviour - content may need to be even more informative, structured, and conversational to stand out in AI-powered results.
You can read the full breakdown from @marketingmagazin
What do you think - exciting evolution or another SEO headache? 😅

We’ve just published a new blog on why interview readiness still matters in today’s marketing recruitment market — even at the senior level.

✅ What can go wrong if you skip them

💡 INTERVIEW TIP ~ Ever had an interview that was all over the shop?
No structure. No clear questions. No vibe. 😬
You walk in (or log on), ready to impress, but five minutes in, you’re wondering if they know why you're both there.
But here’s the thing – these types of interviews happen all the time in Marketing Recruitment. And they’re not always a dealbreaker.
👉 Sometimes the person interviewing you is underprepared.
👉 Sometimes it’s just a chaotic day in a chaotic business.
👉 And sometimes… it’s a bit of a red flag.
But the good news? You can still turn it around (and even take control – in a good way).
🧭 Try gently steering things back on track:
→ “Would it help if I started with a quick overview of my recent marketing experience?”
→ “I’d love to understand more about how this role fits into the team – could you tell me a bit about the structure?”
These prompts show initiative, professionalism, and calm under pressure – all qualities that matter in marketing jobs.
And remember — you’re not just being interviewed.
You’re interviewing them, too.
Use the moment to take stock:
✅ Does the vibe match the job ad?
✅ Do they seem aligned as a team?
✅ Are they engaged and respectful of your time?
Every interview – even the messy ones – is a chance to learn something.
At New Chapter Talent, we specialise in Marketing Recruitment in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane – so if you’re navigating your next move and want someone in your corner, we’re here.

💡 INSIGHTS ~ Behavioural science isn’t just for selling lattes and trainers — it’s just as powerful in B2B.
In a recent Marketing Week article, Richard Shotton unpacks why biases like the illusion of effort and the red sneakers effect still shape big-ticket B2B decisions — from cybersecurity to software.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐈𝐥𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐄𝐟𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭
Buyers were shown the exact same ad for a fictional cybersecurity company — but with different backstories.
When told it took 3 months (and involved a Japanese origami artist 😮), trust in the brand jumped 55% compared to when told it was whipped up by AI in 10 minutes.
📣 Takeaway: In B2B, perception of effort still builds trust. Tell the story behind the work.
𝐑𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐄𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭
A presenter in red trainers and sweats was rated 43% more competent than one in a sharp blue suit.
📣 Takeaway: Non-conformity signals confidence. Breaking the mould can be a powerful brand asset — even in the boardroom.
These biases don’t disappear just because the stakes are higher. As Shotton says, “B2B buyers are still fallible humans, just wearing work clothes.”

🎙️ In case you were expecting a new drop, there is no new episode of the CMO Chapters Podcast today…
While Lucy’s off living her best life on holiday, we’ve decided the podcast dream team (aka Matthew Bliss and Annie) deserve a little R&R too.
But don’t worry — we’re not leaving you hanging for long!
Come September, we’ll be back in your ears with two brilliant new episodes featuring two absolute powerhouses in marketing:
🔸 Louise Cummins ~ Award-winning CMO and recognised AI strategist, Louise has led transformation across global and national brands and now helps leaders navigate the next wave of change: AI-powered reinvention.
🔸 Stacey Maher ~ A proven business leader with 20+ years' experience driving growth through customer-focused strategies. Stacey knows how to lead cross-functional teams, deliver digital transformation, and build brand loyalty across B2B and B2C.
Trust us — these eps are worth the wait.
🎧 In the meantime, catch up on past episodes here ~ 🔗 in bio.
📸 Oh, and the team pictured?👇 That’s Lucy, Matt and Annie mid-shenanigans when Matt was in AU recently. Podcast dream team on tour 😎

Ohhhhhh this testimonial… ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It sums up Lucy and her work ethic in one. Completely nails it on the head.
From candidate to client, this one’s a full-circle moment - and we’re obsessed with the “fairy godmother” reference! Thank you, Carole Priol, for these words...

One week down, one week to go until Lucy returns from her well-earned break… and in the meantime, someone’s got to keep the wheels turning at New Chapter HQ.
Enter: Darcy - the British Bulldog – Executive Assistant, Head of Sniffing Out Talent, and now Acting Director of Absolutely Everything. 🐶💼
This week alone, Darcy has:
🔸 Taken briefs (with a few treats on the side)
🔸 Reviewed CVs (some with a chew mark or two)
🔸 Stayed on top of admin (aka napped next to the laptop)
It’s business as (almost) usual while Lucy’s away – we’re still taking applications, chatting to marketers, and lining up brilliant roles with brilliant brands.
So if you’re ready for your next career move – or just want to see if Darcy approves your CV – drop us a message! 🐾
Equally, if you're looking for your next hire and want to get those wheels in motion, drop Luce a note (she is still contactable while away, her desk just looks like a banana lounge!).

No pressure... just whatever pops into your head first (bonus points for creativity 😉).

💡 CLIENT TIP ~ When it comes to recruitment, language is everything. Job seekers aren’t searching for “Marketing Generalist” or “Communications Officer” anymore — they’re typing in titles like:
🔸 Digital Performance Manager
🔸 Content Growth Lead
🔸 CRM & Lifecycle Specialist
🔸 Brand & Campaign Strategist
If you’re advertising a role, use modern, searchable titles that reflect what people are looking for (and what competitors are using). Otherwise, the perfect candidate might scroll right past.
Bonus tip: Keep the body of the ad clear and keyword-friendly, too. Google Jobs and LinkedIn’s algorithms notice!

🗞️ INSIGHTS ~ Eeeek… Ads sliding into our WhatsApp DMs?!
Not quite in the DMs (yet)... but Meta has officially started rolling out ads on WhatsApp — a move that marks a big shift from their original “ad-free” promise.
Ads will now pop up in the Updates tab, and Meta is testing promoted channels, paid subscriptions and more. And yes, Aussies are already seeing the change if they’ve accepted the new Terms and Conditions.
From a marketing point of view?
💡 A captive (or maybe held captive) audience of 1.5 billion daily users = serious cut-through potential.
But from a privacy perspective?
😳 There’s definitely a few question marks, especially as Australia tightens data protection laws with POLA.
It’s a big move in the world of digital advertising — and one that marketers, consumers and regulators alike will be watching closely. 👀
👉 How do you feel about it? Clever strategy… or crossing the line?

🗞️ INSIGHTS ~ The latest Digital, Marketing & eComm in Focus Report 2025 is here – and it's not pulling any punches.
Brought to you by Arktic Fox, and covered by MarketingMag’s Liam Heitmann-Ryce-LeMercier, this report dives deep into the state of Australian marketing – and the gaps we really need to close.
From the shaky trust in retail media to sluggish AI adoption and a shift away from brand-building, it paints a confronting picture of what’s holding marketers back.
Report author @teresasperti (GAICD) (👋 you might remember her from Series 1, Ep 10 of the CMO Chapters Podcast) offers clear insight into where we’re falling behind – and where we can move forward, fast.
👉 Just 14% of brands have a mature, unified customer view.
👉 Only 19% are scaling up AI for insights.
👉 Yet 75% are prioritising brand growth.
So… are we ready to bridge the gap between ambition and action?

🎧 PODCAST ~ New on CMO Chapters – Series 2, Episode 7!

If you've ever felt like the CMO role has become increasingly complex (and a bit confusing), this conversation will hit home.
✅ The blurring lines between marketing, tech, and finance
✅ The post-COVID budget squeeze no one’s talking about
✅ How CMOs can lead with clarity, empathy, and simplicity
✅ Why EQ matters more than ever

💬 BLOG ~ First-time speaker nerves? Absolutely. Powerful takeaways for marketers? You bet.
Earlier this month, Lucy (our fabulous Founder here at New Chapter Talent) stepped out of her comfort zone and onto the stage at the @brandwatch Bootcamp Melbourne – co-hosting a session with the brilliant @emmagrahamcareercoach on 'Future-proofing your marketing career: The skills you’ll need tomorrow'.
From embracing AI to building your personal brand, it was all about giving marketers the tools (and confidence) to take charge of their careers in an ever-evolving industry.
A few key takeaways:
🔸 Be active, not passive, in your career
🔸 Learn to work with AI, not against it
🔸 Build your visibility – in your company and beyond
🔸 Grow your network with intention
🔸 Know your value – and how to sell it!
✅ Plus, Lucy shared her experience of saying “yes” to something that scared her – and why it was so worth it.
It was also brilliant to hear from so many other amazing speakers throughout the day – shout out to:
🔹 Michael Appleford (Tag WW)
🔹 Justine Salazar & Ryan Gill (Brandwatch)
🔹 Olivia Gumienny, Jess O. & Monica Marchesani (Not-for-profit social media panel)
🔹 Hayden Dib (Cheque Please!)
🔹 Paul Murphy (Monash University)
