PATTAYA, THAILAND - January 15, 2026 - Digital marketing strategist Tony Hayes has released his latest newsletter edition providing entrepreneurs and marketers with 15 actionable strategies currently generating revenue in 2026's rapidly evolving digital landscape.
The comprehensive briefing, titled "The 2026 Marketing Stack: 15 Trends You Can't Ignore," analyzes recent industry research including a $10,000 data study of 300,000 YouTube videos, revealing surprising algorithmic shifts that contradict conventional wisdom.
Key Findings and Strategies Include:
WhatsApp Marketing Evolution: HubSpot's latest research reveals that "Click to WhatsApp" ads are dramatically outperforming traditional landing page funnels by eliminating conversion friction. Hayes provides complete setup instructions for automating these conversations at scale.
Reddit SEO Breakthrough: New data shows Google now trusts Reddit threads more than brand websites for certain search queries. Hayes details the "SERP hijacking" methodology for leveraging this algorithmic shift, including the critical 10-day waiting period to avoid platform shadowbans.
YouTube Algorithm Update: Analysis of 300,000 videos reveals thumbnails without text generate 19% more views, and the optimal video duration has shifted to 15-25 minutes. Hayes explains why subscriber counts no longer guarantee video performance and introduces the "VLS Framework" (Views → Leads → Sales) for business-focused creators.
AI Desktop Automation: Hayes examines Anthropic's Claude "Cowork" feature, which allows AI to access local file systems for document analysis and creation, calling it a "watershed moment" that speeds administrative workflows by 100x.
TikTok Commerce Case Study: Brandon Lush's $14M in 18 months selling on TikTok Shop demonstrates the "first 1.5 seconds" rule and volume-based content strategy, posting 10 videos daily across multiple accounts using only a smartphone.
Differentiated Implementation Approach
Unlike typical industry newsletters that provide only conceptual frameworks, Hayes has created comprehensive implementation packages for each strategy, including:
-
Four-paragraph deep-dive summaries
-
25 actionable key takeaways per strategy
-
Step-by-step execution checklists
-
Direct links to source research and case studies
"Most newsletters give you ideas but leave you hanging on execution," Hayes explains. "That's exactly the kind of information-without-action entertainment I can't stand. I've created complete implementation packages so readers can pick one strategy and ship it today."
Business Model Analysis
The newsletter also features marketing expert Alex Hormozi's breakdown of four business archetypes—Service, Ecommerce, SaaS, and Education—with analysis of scaling limitations and advantages for each model. Hayes emphasizes the importance of understanding your "business shape" before attempting to scale.
