Hard Choices Now, Easy Life Later.

Nick Cao • May 20, 2025

"Hard choices now, easy life later."
 
I heard this line from comedian Jimmy Carr. 
He was talking about parenting which, admittedly, felt a bit left field coming from a comedian known for savage punchlines.
 
But the truth of it hit hard.
And not just for parents… for marketers too.
 
Everyone wants to chase high-intent, bottom-of-funnel leads.
They’re ready to buy, right?
 
Sure, but they’re also the hardest to convert.
They’ve done the research. They know the players.
They probably already have a provider in mind.
 
You’re not educating. You’re interrupting.
You’re not guiding. You’re competing.
 
The best performing campaigns don’t just show up at the end.
They plant the seed early.
 
They build familiarity.
They earn trust.
They become the first name that comes to mind when the decision moment arrives.
 
It's harder upfront.
You need patience. Strategy. Content. Nurturing.
But when done well, you don’t fight for attention — you own it.
 
You’re not one of many. 
You’re the one they already chose.
