In today's marketing climate, people expect brands to demonstrate their purpose. As a marketing leader and brand strategist, you no longer dictate to your audience how they should feel about your brand and are no longer in control of a narrative.

IN CLEAR FOCUS: Dr. Emmanuel Probst, Global Lead, Brand Thought-Leadership at Ipsos, discusses his book, Assemblage: The Art and Science of Brand Transformation. Emmanuel explains why, to be successful, brands need to focus on three dimensions: shaping expectations, harnessing context, and demonstrating empathy. We also discuss contextual brand tracking and how understanding the occasions that drive the choice of one brand over another can be more beneficial than analyzing the competitive set.  

In this week's episode of the SIMPLE brand podcast, I talk with Emmanuel Probst.Emmanuel's the Global Lead of Brand Thought-Leadership at Ipsos. He's an adjunct professor of Consumer Market Research at UCLA. And he's a Wall Street Journal and USA Today best-selling author of two brand strategy books including his latest -  Assemblage – The Art and Science of Brand Transformation.Just like a master blender uses the art of assemblage to know how to orchestrate, assemble and combine all the right elements to make a fine wine or cognac, a master brand strategist can do the same with their brand. But they have to be able to recognize and understand which elements to use and exactly how to combine them to craft meaningful, impactful brands.That's the art and science of creating a transformative brand.Some of the topics we discuss include:Not all brands need to demonstrate a purpose, but they do need to help their customers transformHow your brand can be empathetic, relatable, authentic, and genuineYour customers need to understand “the one thing” your brand can do for themWhat the history of James Bond can teach you about assembling and evolving a brandThere is nothing original. Most creations are remixes and recreations of existing elements Brands are now open-source and need to allow for co-creation with customersYour brand is not the hero of the customer story, but there are important roles it can playYour brand is what people say it is, not what you say it isWhat's driving a decrease in consumer trust of brands RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE:Emmanuel's siteEmmanuel's book - Assemblage: The Art and Science of Brand TransformationEmmanuel's book - Brand Hacks: How to Build Brands by Fulfilling the Consumer Quest for MeaningEmmanuel on LinkedIn

Emmanuel Probst leads brand thought leadership at Ipsos and is the author of the Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestseller Brand Hacks. His latest book is Assemblage: The Art and Science of Brand Transformation. We discussed all of this and more this week on the On Brand podcast. About Emmanuel Probst Emmanuel Probst is Global Lead, Brand Thought-Leadership at Ipsos, adjunct professor at the University of California at Los Angeles, and the author of Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestseller Brand Hacks. He supports numerous Fortune 100 companies by providing them with a full understanding of their customer's journey. Emmanuel holds an MBA in Marketing from the University of Hull, United Kingdom, and a Doctorate in Consumer Psychology from the University of Nottingham Trent, United Kingdom. His latest book is Assemblage: The Art and Science of Brand Transformation. Episode Highlights Technology and COVID have changed a lot about consumer behavior but … “You also have to look at what hasn't changed,” Emmanuel began. “We as humans crave in-person and interpersonal interactions.” “Stop trying to compete with Amazon,” Emmanuel cautioned. “People keep saying retail is dead. Retail is growing faster than e-commerce. But it has to be either very high touch or very unique.” Furthermore, brands have to make a positive impact in the world and in the lives of consumers today. Where do you start with this? “Don't try to be everything to everyone,” Emmanuel said. “An airport saying it wants to be carbon neutral isn't a realistic goal. But Dove can celebrate real beauty.” That's why brand building is both an art and a science. So, how is branding like wine-making? The title for Emmanuel's new book Assemblage comes from his belief that this art and science has more in common with makers of spirits like wine and bourbon (now he has my attention!). “The master blender combines samples from a variety of grapes and methods.” Are there examples of brands doing this? “Liquid Death has changed the conversation around water,” said Emmanuel, adding that much of the brand's innovation came as the result of relatively cheap but incredibly innovative creative. Liquid Death comes up a lot on the On Brand podcast. It was referenced recently by Rebecca Coleman and as far back as David Brickley. What brand has made Emmanuel smile recently? “I have two!” Emmanuel shared, again leading with Liquid Death for “murdering your thirst.” He also pointed us to B2B copywriter George Tennenbaum for his engaging presence on LinkedIn.

Dr. Emmanuel Probst joins Sima on the podcast today. He is the bestselling author of Brand Hacks and the newly-published book, Assemblage. In addition to writing books, he is also the Global Lead of Brand Thought-Leadership at Ipsos. In this episode, he talks to Sima about his latest book and the changing narrative he has seen in brand purpose over the last several years. Books The second edition of Brand Hacks came out in September 2021. Assemblage: The Art and Science of Brand Transformation will be officially released on the 24th of January, 2023. Dr. Probst is considering writing another book in 2024. Curiosity and fulfillment Dr. Probst believes that curiosity is essential for finding solutions and becoming successful in the world of marketing today. He has found it fulfilling to learn from people from different cultures and professional backgrounds. He feels we can learn as much from those who started in the industry recently as we can from industry leaders with C-level titles and many years of experience. The problem with having too many brands and too many product choices Dr. Probst wrote the book Assemblage: The Art and Science of Brand Transformation because he was seeing way too many products and brands. He feels that having too many choices is counter-productive because having too many options makes it hard for people to know what truly matters and which products to choose. What people expect from brands Studies done by Ipsos have shown that people expect all brands- regardless of the industry, to deliver good products that work for them. They also expect those brands to make an impact on their lives and offer a positive contribution to the world at large. A shift in brand purpose  Since Covid, Dr. Probst has seen a shift in brand purpose. As a result of what is going on in the world today and the acceleration of social media, consumers no longer support brands that claim to have a purpose. They now support the brands that demonstrate their purpose intentionally. Harnessing the power of the audience In the past, brand leaders could dictate the narrative of their brand strategy to their audience. That no longer applies today, so in Assemblage, Dr. Probst explains what brands must do to harness the power of their audience, and co-create the narrative of their brand along with their audience. The difference between expectations and intentions Consumers' product expectations relate to what they hope to receive and how reliably the products work. Intention is a co-creative process between brands and people to activate and inform what comes next. The outcomes of the co-creative process of intention for brands Co-creating with intention extends the value chain for brands because it makes the output more tangible and allows for a return on investment or ad spend to be perceived more realistically. Challenges for brand managers Big data can be overwhelming for brand managers. That's why it is helpful to have professional guidance from a company like Ipsos, to inform them tactically and strategically, and assist them in teasing out the most significant data. Some advice for brand managers When talking to their audience, brands must understand and appreciate that people tend to get overwhelmed, confused, and anxious about who they are in real life, who they are on social media, and who they will appear to be in the metaverse. So brands need to create meaningful relationships and reassure people about the future of our society. They also need to sell less and provide better products with a longer lifespan.

A lot of brands just don't get it. That's one of the things I've learned as a longtime brand marketer and as someone who now covers them for a living. That's why I'm excited to talk to Dr.Emmanuel Probst, the Global Lead, Brand Thought-Leadership at Ipsos and Consumer Market Research Professor at UCLA. He's also the author of the Brand Hacks: How to Build Brands by Fulfilling the Consumer Quest for Meaning, which came out this past fall and is a Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestseller.We talk to Emmanuel about why many advertising campaigns fail, the important of psychographics, why leveraging micro-moments to build connections with consumers can be a competitive advantage—and more.

Every day, we are berated with advertising for products and services trying to convince us to switch to their brand. What makes us take pause and pay attention is no longer the fear of missing out. Audiences want to find meaning in the products they buy and activities they take part in. So, how can you convey to your customer that your brand has meaning? Our guest today is Emmanuel Probst, Global Lead of Brand Thought Leadership at Ipsos, where they are passionately curious about society, markets, and providing a game changing understanding of the world to help clients make faster, smarter and bolder decisions. He is also the author of Brand Hacks: How to Build Brands by Fulfilling the Consumer Quest for Meaning. In this book, Emmanuel shows us how to use simple hacks to create and grow brands that deliver meaning — even with a limited budget. We ask Emmanuel, “What is the quest for meaning in branding? Why do people care about some brands and almost instantly forget others?" and his answers deliver! Emmanuel helps us understand why customers are seeking meaning and why companies need to focus on creating long term strategies that incorporate feelings of nostalgia, joy, and empathy. That's what makes people want to come back year after year. Next, we move to discuss how thought leadership connects to branding and how the thought leader needs to inject a level of self into their work regardless of where it can be found. We study how academics and practitioners often have a large gap between each other, when in fact they can learn a lot from each other.  Emmanuel teaches us to bridge that gap and bring complex ideas to customers in simple, intuitive, and relevant ways. We round out the conversation with Emmanuel's thoughts on why thought leadership works at Ipsos, and how true  leadership involves listening to what the market wants to learn, hear, and monetize. From there, they help the customer answer the questions of “So What?" and "What Now?” by giving them ideas that are relevant and actionable to the market. This is a great episode for everyone interested in brand-building. Listen in! Three Key Takeaways: Thought Leaders need to help clients create a brand that has meaning, in order to create customer loyalty. The fear of missing out brings short term results, but creating a positive emotional connection with a brand will make consumers invest for the long term.      Great thought leadership ideas shouldn't be complex! Find ways to make your concepts quick and easy to understand.
