This delusion is why people hate marketing. We can’t sit here and deny that things are reaching an inflection point with how we’re marketing.

You’ve got ads going on refrigerator screens. That’s a problem.

And even if by some magic, he’s right, the ads we experience today are far more predatory than their predecessors.

“Storytellers” is corporate America’s latest buzzword for 2026, replacing Prompt Engineer from 2025. And guess what? It’s not going to save your brand unless you pair them with a “tastemaker.”

How do you know if you’re a tastemaker?

- You have a keen eye for trends and how they relate to the overall brand.
- You are opinionated and know how to curate stories
- You have a high risk tolerance and respect for business goals

Tastemakers eliminate the bureaucracy that weighs down creative storytelling, empowering storytellers to create content that captures attention.
