## Resource

Data doesn’t kill creativity; it sharpens it. Brook Shepard of Mason Interactive explains why starting with clear goals and basic data matters. Test what you put out, learn what works, and build from it. Used properly, data helps you make better creative and prove what’s actually working—so you can keep improving, not guessing.
