Making Market Research Practical and Impactful with Ana Laskey, founder of Ground Control Research
“Nothing important happens in the office.” In this episode, we sit down with Anastassia (Ana) Laskey, founder of Ground Control Research and creator of the Brand and Market Telemetry Method, to discuss how to make market research faster, more practical, and more impactful. Ana shares how even the most curious organizations often lack the structure and process to turn that curiosity into usable insights. She explains how to design “just-right” research: work that’s rigorous enough to reduce risk but scrappy enough to keep pace with business demands. Ana shares strategies on how to align stakeholders, choose the right research scope, and tell stories that make insights impossible to ignore. Listeners will learn how to improve B2B recruiting, communicate insights more effectively, and leverage AI responsibly to speed up analysis without sacrificing quality.

The Real Power of Pricing with Ajit Ghuman, co-founder of Monetizely
“Pricing is product marketing’s most measurable lever.” In this episode, we chat with Ajit Ghuman, co-founder of Monetizely and author of Price to Scale, about how pricing and product marketing work together to shape business strategy and drive growth. Ajit walks through his journey from product management to marketing and eventually pricing, explaining why pricing is really an extension of segmentation, positioning, and value proposition. He makes the case that pricing isn’t a separate discipline but the action-oriented side of product marketing – where great storytelling meets real business results. They dig into how to make SaaS pricing more effective through thoughtful packaging, how AI introduces new pricing challenges, and why software deflation and commoditization are pushing companies to stand out through niche offerings and services. Ajit also shares how shifts from high-growth to high-margin economies are changing the way leaders think about pricing and sustainability. Tune in to discover how to tie pricing to your overall company strategy, communicate value clearly, and apply pricing fundamentals that hold up no matter how quickly technology changes.
