Inside Marketing with MarketSurge welcomes Jeff Greenfield — a 3x founder, analytics pioneer, and CEO/co-founder of Prova (getprova.com). If you’ve ever wondered why your marketing data says one thing while your financials scream something else, this episode is your intervention.

What probabilistic, AI-powered attribution actually looks like
How consumer behavior has shifted into apps + marketplaces
Why the future of search may live inside ChatGPT
What marketers MUST do now to keep up with the next data revolution
