If you're running a virtual practice, cash-based clinic, or building your online brand as a physician — you need to figure out your branding voice. This episode breaks down exactly what that means — and no, it's not just how you sound. It's about how you show up, how your audience feels about your content, and whether they trust you enough to book a visit or buy your service. I share why consistency across YouTube, social, and your website is non-negotiable — and how mismatching your online vibe with your real-life practice can cost you patients (or worse). I also talk about how I'm working through this right now with my own brands and social media manager — figuring out the right balance between being myself and crafting a clear message.

Over 85 million people play Pokemon Go every month.* They're out there, wandering the real world, finding, catching and battling with their cute little virtual creatures. But the experience is real and the people they play with are real. You could say it's one of the most successful in-person activations ever. Pokemon Go is proof that in-person activations act as an extremely effective marketing strategy.That's one of the lessons we're taking from Pokemon in this episode with the help of our special guest, fractional CMO Veronica Saron. Together, we also talk about providing game balance, paying attention to metrics, and much more.*As of the first half of 2024About our guest, Veronica SaronVeronica Saron is a marketing leader, formerly of Niantic (Pokémon GO) and AI-powered Neeva (acquired by Snowflake (NYSE: SNOW) in May 2023). Her journey has led her through the worlds of gaming, DAOs, artificial intelligence, web3, and the metaverse. Recently, she led the marketing team at Neeva, revolutionizing the search experience by embedding AI answers into an advertiser-free search engine. Her team's efforts around Neeva's AI-powered positioning – paired with frequent high-profile updates – illuminated their innovative approach, attracted industry leaders and led to their acquisition by Snowflake.Over a decade ago, Veronica co-founded OwlSpark, Rice University's entrepreneurship accelerator, marking the start of her tech journey. After serving Fortune 500 and Global 2000 clients as a strategy consultant and having a stint as a coordinator at Google, she joined Niantic. There, she led the team that transformed Pokémon GO into a global phenomenon, collaborating with esteemed partners like Google, Apple, Samsung, Nintendo, McDonald's, Verizon, Longchamp, Gucci, Northface, and 7-Eleven, as well as countless global SMBs, community creators, and influencers. She has since stepped into roles as an investor and advisor, shaping the future of tech startups. Outside of work, she enjoys stovetop espresso, practicing muay thai, and playing the saxophone. What B2B Companies Can Learn From Pokemon:Provide game balance. Veronica says, “ When people talk about gamification, it needs to be at the right level of difficulty for you to not just get frustrated and give up. A really good game will start you off on level one and then you progress through difficulty levels.” And when you apply this to marketing, Ian says, “ Your sales process getting really hard for no freaking reason is the most frustrating thing ever.” So take your customers on a journey, and give them the experience appropriate to where they are in their buying process.Look at the metrics. And give them more weight than verbal feedback. Data speaks louder than words. Veronica says, “ When Pokemon Go was in beta, the metrics were really good. Like the retention rates, the activation rates. All the metrics were up and to the right. But people were giving really bad feedback. They were like, ‘I hate this. Why is it not like that? Why isn't it working this way? Why isn't it doing that? Why isn't it doing this?' And the reason why the team launched the game is because the metrics just spoke louder than what people were saying.”Plan in-person activations. And create immersive environments for your audience. Veronica says, “ When you think about B2B events, you think about conferences and these kind of old school vibes, and I don't think that's the cutting edge anymore. If you want to do B2B marketing well, take a page out of B2C. There've been some incredible in-person events.” When she worked on Pokemon Go, they were able to do successful in-person events even during COVID and they were able to grow the business despite restrictions.Quotes*” With Pokemon Go and with any product, there's always going to be core users who are like super users. And they will have all these ideas. They'll want certain features. They'll want certain things fixed. They will be really loud. And then you get the rest of everybody that's the silent majority. A huge part of what product marketers have to do is prioritize feedback based on what is actually going to move the needle in terms of our goals. Because if you just listen to the core users all the time, you'll just make this thing that's only for a very specific super user. You have to balance that feedback with what's going to work for the majority as well.”*”Figure out what problem you're solving. Who is it for? Figure that out first and then you can start to think about being precious about your brand. Once you have something to protect, like the Pokemon company, then you can get precious about it.”*” Sometimes we get caught up in our own core mindset and we forget we have to take the customer through a journey and through a ‘balanced game,' if you will.”Time Stamps[0:55] Meet Veronica Saron, Fractional CMO at early stage startups[1:33] Veronica's Journey with Pokemon[5:02] The Origin Story of Pokemon[10:07] Pokemon's Global Impact[16:01] Marketing Pokemon Go[29:16] The Business Model of Pokémon Go[35:06] B2B Marketing Lessons from Pokémon Go[35:53] The Importance of Game Balance in B2B[41:46] Brand Consistency and Product Market Fit[46:44] The Power of In-Person EventsLinksConnect with Veronica on LinkedInAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

And one of the things we've always done is make them feel like they're walking into a restaurant, even though they're working into a virtual office.” “I think this is where a lot of businesses could differentiate, and the customer experience they provide could easily make or break them, since we're living in such a hyper competitive world.” “Customer Journey for Dummies, it is the complete sum of experiences that a customer or client will go through when they're interacting with your company, and that starts before they're actually even paying clients. “It encompasses every single touch point and stage that a customer passes through, from first becoming aware of your brand until they make a purchase, and also if they have to return something.” “Even the way you continue to interact with them after the scope of work is complete is still part of the customer experience or customer journey.” “We're not order takers in the web development world, we're really more partners, really invested in the outcome and growing that business or growing that personal brand, just as much as the client is.” “Throughout the customer journey of working with us, we have teammates whose sole responsibility it is to check in with the client and to keep them on timeline, because timeline impacts budget, right?” “There's also an offboarding time period for clients that are heavily engaged in the workflow, offboarding and then also continuing to cultivate the relationship and continuing to help them grow and establish their brands.” “One reason why we send newsletters and we do this podcast is it's very much for our existing and past clients, just as much as it is for our potential clients. We want to keep supporting them and helping them to grow far into the future.” “One common [mistake] is just not thinking about it. Another common one is not treating a customer the way you would want to be treated and really being very focused on yourselves versus what might be going on in that customer's world or role.” “A lot of our clients are extremely busy during our own working hours, right? We have to be mindful of what their day to day is like, and also kind of tap in to understand where their overwhelm point is and be able to adjust accordingly.” “We have these different points in our service delivery, really taking the time to map out every single touch point down.” Links mentioned in this episode: Excellence Wins: A No-Nonsense Guide to Becoming the Best in a World of Compromise by Horst Schulze: https://a.co/d/5rIyWeO

Jon Lombardo and Peter Weinberg built a reputation as the gurus of B2B marketing, being named as the Les & Peter of B2B Marketing (by Les and Peter) and they took time out of their yacht hopping in Cannes to join me to talk about what they are up to since leaving the B2B Institute. Before we get into the details of the episode, in a highly controversial moment, Jon and Peter take time out to clarify and rectify a comment they made on the Uncensored CMO podcast recently. Now getting into the conversation we have, we of course talk about their journey at LinkedIn and why they decided to leave. We dive into the core principles that guided their work at the B2B Institute, including the influence of Ehrenberg-Bass and Binet & Field on marketing effectiveness. They reflect on the impact they had at LinkedIn, helping elevate B2B marketing, and how they perceive the opportunities in B2B sector growth compared to B2C. They explain the challenges they faced with scaling traditional market research in the B2B sector, citing its high costs and slow pace. This led them to explore and adopt 'Synthetic Research' as a scalable solution that leverages AI to mimic customer responses accurately and cost-effectively - it is fascinating. We discuss how their new company Evidenza aims to build finance-friendly marketing plans using synthetic research. This method allows marketers to generate reliable insights quickly and more affordably, democratising access to robust market research. They emphasise the importance of asking the right questions and how synthetic research can help marketers avoid limitations like 'survey fatigue' and 'survey remorse.' Jon and Pete also explore the unique benefits of working independently after leaving LinkedIn, highlighting their newfound creative freedom and ability to directly apply marketing theories to their business. Their vision for Evidenza is fascinating and speaking to them about it, the passion is incredible, their innovative approach is set to revolutionise the field by making customer insights more accessible, faster, and cost-effective. 00:16 Uncensored CMO comments rectified01:10 Leaving LinkedIn: The Big Decision01:28 Challenges in B2B Marketing09:44 Global Marketing Insights12:50 The Role of Finance in Marketing16:12 Brand Consistency vs. Change19:22 Introducing Evidenza22:30 The Importance of Asking the Right Questions22:38 A New Way of Marketing23:36 Synthetic Research: Faster and Cost-Effective24:29 Creating Synthetic Samples25:55 Comparing Synthetic and Traditional Research30:28 The Flexibility of Synthetic Research33:24 Democratizing Market Research43:01 Global Reach and Future Potential45:12 Transitioning from LinkedIn to StartupThe Cannes Sessions are brought to you by Freedman International Hosted on Acast.

You may not think of people at work as your community, but they are. And when you build strong relationships with your community, you get more done. It's more creative. It's more resourceful. The results are just better.That's one of the things we're talking about today with the help of our special guest, Senior Director of Brand & Digital Marketing at Collibra, Victoria Bowman.Together, we take marketing lessons from Abbott Elementary, including partnering up with your coworkers, showing that you understand your audience, and testing your ideas before investing in them.About our guest, Victoria BowmanVictoria Bowman is an accomplished marketing leader with extensive experience building brands and accelerating growth in fast-paced award-winning companies, including Collibra, MITRE and Dell Technologies.She is Senior Director of Brand and Digital Marketing at Collibra, the leading data intelligence platform. Her team includes Brand and Creative, Digital & Websites, Social Media, Community and Marketing Operations. Victoria fosters a strong culture of trust and collaboration on her team, empowering impactful cross-functional work on campaigns, events, website optimization, thought leadership programs and evolution of the brand. Collibra was recently recognized with wins in multiple categories from both the MarCom Awards and Communicator Awards.At MITRE, a nonprofit which performs R&D on behalf of the federal government as well as industry partners, Victoria helped Strategic Communications navigate proper brand marketing in an organization dating back to 1958. Her primary focus was on relaunching mitre.org with a design system refresh and 90 net-new pages of concise content, as well as developing the employer brand and deploying high-impact campaigns to talent acquisition targets.As Director of Brand Marketing at Dell Boomi, a SaaS company within Dell Technologies, Victoria built and led large cross-functional teams of creatives and developers, relaunched the corporate website twice during her tenure, rebranded the company, and created infrastructure and improved processes that helped Dell Boomi to scale. These strategies enabled growth initiatives and lead-generating campaigns that resulted in direct, measurable business impact.Prior to working in tech / SaaS, Victoria held leadership roles in consumer packaged goods and online retail organizations. In those positions, she created innovative visual communications and marketing campaign strategies that effectively engaged B2B/B2C channels, planned and executed large events, expanded omnichannel brand awareness, and directly increased sales and customer retention.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Abbott Elementary:Partner up. Don't feel like you have to operate alone. Working collaboratively with others results in a more thoughtful, creative, and unique outcome. Victoria says, “Relationships are crucial to your success. All of the characters on Abbott Elementary really rely on each other. And they've built trust by learning across generations and different backgrounds. And I think that culture of trust really is what fosters great partnership and creativity and innovation. Fostering connections and gaining that shared understanding and having mutual support is important, and the element of discovery that comes from all of those shared experiences.”Show that you understand your audience. Appeal to their values, concerns, frustrations and priorities. That's when content “clicks” for them and you create an emotional bond. Victoria says, “Show that you understand and speak to and meet the needs of your audience. Exemplify that in your marketing, that you understand their problems, you understand their needs, that you are listening, that you're accessible.”Test. Try out new marketing strategies before really investing in them. Victoria says, “Be entrepreneurial. Try out new things. Experiment and test and improve the benefit before you sink budget and resources into something. That's how new activities can turn into successful programs. Never lose that sense of curiosity and that entrepreneurial approach.”Quotes*”To be successful at content marketing, you cannot work in silos. It takes a village to do B2B marketing well, and that means keeping the communication flowing and building trust and having that open collaboration.”*”Bring your whole self to work; your creativity, your resilience and humor. You really, as a leader, should set an example of how to be open and curious and flexible and authentic because it is contagious and it will help you to build an amazing culture on your team.”*”Experiment often. Learn from what works and what doesn't work and keep iterating. Model for people what it looks like to learn from failures and keep moving forward with optimism and lessons learned. So make sure you celebrate the wins that you recognize the great work and you build on it.

Welcome to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. Today's episode is a continuation of our conversation with Jen Hovelsrud of Elevance Health. On our last episode, we talked about how we can maintain content harmony and start thinking of our company as a publisher. Now, we're digging deeper and discussing how we, as brand leaders, can empower our teams to create content quickly in a way that ensures brand consistency and long-term brand health. Jen, an expert in enterprise content marketing and social media, shares her strategies on empowering teams, utilizing tools for brand monitoring, and the delicate balance between creative freedom and brand coherence. We'll also discuss budget allocation, the potential and ethical use of AI in content generation, and the pivotal role of strong leadership in fostering marketing success. Thank you for being part of the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. The future of healthcare depends on it. Key Takeaways: 1. Harmony in Brand Consistency: While brand consistency is a cornerstone of strong marketing, it's the power of a central source of truth and the avoidance of a perfectionist mindset that truly empowers content creation teams. 2. Leadership & Leveraging Strengths: Sara and Jen touch on the pivotal role of leadership within marketing. It's important to foster a team environment where creativity is nurtured, strengths are leveraged, and members are encouraged to contribute unique perspectives, all within the boundaries of brand guidelines to maintain harmony. 3. Resource Realities & Focused Strategy: Sara and Jen discuss the common struggle of under-resourced content teams across organizations. Jen highlights the critical importance of a disciplined, strategic approach to content creation, especially when resources are limited. She advocates for a clear, purpose-driven strategy that defines a well-chosen area of impact, echoing the necessity of prioritizing and measuring for sustainable content marketing. 4. Ethical AI & Operational Potential: AI can provide useful first drafts but there will always be the necessity of human oversight. This episode discusses the creation of ethical guidelines surrounding AI's use in highly regulated industries like healthcare. 5. Empathy & Execution: There's a need for balancing creativity with consistency without stifling innovation. It's important to have a supportive environment where mistakes are seen as opportunities rather than failures. Empathy, respect for individuality, and space for personal expression are essential for both vibrant content and professional contentment.

Welcome to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. On today's episode, Jen Hovelsrud is here to talk about how we can create consistency in our content and begin thinking like publishers rather than advertisers. Jen is an expert in content marketing, focusing not only on creating content, but the structures and strategies that unify the content and messaging of large, multi-faceted organizations. Jen is breaking down what she calls a federated model of content marketing that allows for consistency and unity when working with several brands under a single parent company. She also shares her philosophy on companies needing to become publishers and emphasize tactics that build relationships and foster brand loyalty. Thank you for being part of the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. The future of healthcare depends on it. Key Takeaways: 1. Purpose-Driven Persistence: Jen Hovelsrud illuminates the dedication necessary for implementing a purpose-driven approach within large organizations, highlighting that successful integration spans beyond a mere marketing strategy to become the core of business operations. Aligning people and brands with this mission demands time, patience, and concerted effort, as evidenced by the nine-month timeframe to establish it at the corporate level. 2. From Advertisers to Publishers: Shifting the marketing mindset is essential in today's content-rich landscape, and Jen underscores the importance for brands to evolve from thinking like advertisers to becoming savvy publishers. This transformation enables the creation of impactful, engaging content that fosters authentic relationships with audiences, relying on a deep understanding of their needs and a clear, insightful point of view. 3. Infrastructural Integrity: Building the backbone to support a purpose-driven narrative requires more than just passion; it necessitates a robust organizational framework. This groundwork lays the foundation for aligning content strategies with an overarching purpose, setting the stage for brand consistency and amplifying the resonance of messaging across various audiences. 4. Managing Momentum and Expectations: Sara Payne and Jen Hovelsrud discuss the nuanced dance of balancing the slow build of a purpose-driven brand with managing stakeholder anticipation for quicker wins. Accountability to the mission and an unwavering commitment to storytelling integrity are vital for amortizing the extensive investment involved in this strategic shift. 5. Content Harmony in a Digital World: Breaking down silos is crucial for achieving content objectives that resonate with and add value for the audience. Jen's federated model of embedding specialized teams within business lines exemplifies a strategic approach for nurturing content harmony and brand consistency during an era of rapid digital content proliferation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XX_Vq3lTU5Y About Jen Hovelsrud Staff Vice President Elevance Health Jen leads Enterprise Content Marketing and Social Media for Elevance Health, a health company and largest licensee of Blue Cross Blue Shield Health plans.

Effective marketing is crucial. In times of budget constraints, individuals may think they can handle it themselves. However, if you lack a deep understanding of marketing dynamics and messaging, it's advisable to outsource the task. Remember, you have only one opportunity to create a compelling first impression. While some argue that they can make an impression later on social media, it's vital to recognize that brand consistency plays a pivotal role. Emphasizing brand consistency should be a top priority in your approach to marketing. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-inventive-journey/message
