3 FEB. 2026 · What would you actually do with a $5,000 marketing budget?
In this episode of All the Hats, Ómar Thor Ómarsson gets put on the spot. It’s 2026, the budget is tight, and every dollar has to count. Alicja Lei hands Ómar a $5,000 annual marketing budget and asks the hard questions: what actually moves buyers, what is a waste of money, and where should small B2B teams focus when there is no room for error.
Together, they walk through a real, line-by-line breakdown of how to spend that budget across tools, content, distribution, events, and partnerships. From organic LinkedIn posting and light paid amplification to scrappy events, retargeting, and free tools that still punch above their weight, this episode is a practical blueprint for teams doing more with less.
This is not a theoretical framework or a perfect-world plan. It is a realistic look at what works when time, money, and headcount are limited.
In this episode:
- How to allocate a $5,000 annual marketing budget
- What tools are worth paying for and what you can get for free
- Why organic LinkedIn still outperforms most paid channels
- When it makes sense to boost posts or run retargeting

20 ENE. 2026 · Google Analytics tells you everything and somehow nothing at the same time.
In this episode of All the Hats, Ómar Thor Ómarsson and Alicja Lei sit down with Edward Ford, co-founder of Hamu and longtime B2B SaaS marketer, to unpack why Google Analytics has become a poor fit for modern B2B teams.

The conversation shifts into what B2B marketers actually need from analytics: clarity, speed, and answers tied to real buying behavior. Edward explains why Optise stands out as a more practical solution for B2B teams, breaking analytics down into discovery, engagement, and conversion so marketers can quickly understand what is working and what to do next.
From founder-led growth to website performance and attribution myths, this episode is a grounded look at how analytics should support decision-making instead of slowing it down.
In this episode:
- Why Google Analytics is a poor fit for most B2B teams
- The biggest problems marketers face with GA4
- What B2B analytics should actually show you

In this episode of All the Hats, Ómar Thor Ómarsson and Alicja Lei dig into the new wave of acronyms that are reshaping how people find your brand online: SEO, AEO, GEO, and whatever comes next. With AI tools like ChatGPT and Gemini changing how people search, the question is no longer how to rank on Google, but how to stay visible at all.

21 OCT. 2025 · Most small B2B marketing teams are working with the same problem: too little budget, too many expectations, and a playbook that feels stuck in 2015. White papers, gated content, and “just run some Google Ads” don’t cut it anymore.

In this episode of All the Hats, Ómar Thor Ómarsson and Alicja Lei sit down with Peep Laja, founder of Wynter, to unpack why positioning fails when you’re guessing, why A/B testing isn’t built for most B2B teams, and how message-market fit matters just as much as product-market fit.
They dive into pivots, micro-optimizations, and the uncomfortable truth that your homepage copy is often the real conversion bottleneck—not your design. No fluff. No jargon. Just sharp insights on what makes messaging resonate and how to defend research spend when the C-suite asks, “Do we really need this?”

In this episode of All the Hats, Ómar Thor Ómarsson and Alicja Lei sit down with Anthony Pierri of Fletch to dig into why so many B2B startups stumble when it comes to messaging. Founders love strategy decks and category conversations—but if the positioning never makes it onto the homepage, the market never sees it.
Anthony shares how forcing hard choices, narrowing your ICP, and putting your stake in the ground on the homepage creates clarity that cascades through the entire company. From anchors and headlines to problem sections that don’t make your BS meter go off, this conversation gets into the real work of messaging that cuts through noise.
Because clever doesn’t convert—clarity does.

- Why homepage copy is the ultimate forcing function for positioning
