I'll tell you what happened in my career before. Maybe you've been there, too.There's a sponsorship, sometimes a fairly high-profile sponsorship, and I have gotten asked to write it about it in an ad or email…but, there wasn't really a strategy. That is not the way to get the best ROI, the most juice for the squeeze.Sponsorships truly succeed when they tie into the value proposition of the brand. So this lesson in a recent podcast guest application really grabbed my attention – “Maximize brand awareness by going beyond the ‘logo slap' sponsorship”To hear the story behind that lesson, along with many more lesson-filled stories, I talked to Rebecca Biestman, Chief Marketing Officer, Guild [https://guild.com/].Guild raised $175 million in a Series F funding round in 2022, at a $4.4 billion valuation. Wellington Management led the financing, and Oprah Winfrey participated in the round, along with other backers. Biestman manages a team of 70 in the marketing department.Lessons from the things she madeMaximize brand awareness by going beyond the “logo slap” sponsorshipEmbrace new tech that helps drive your brand strategyTo build a brand that lasts, consider rebranding a team sport Be prepared to step up when the unexpected happensThe best candidate for a role isn't always the one who has done it beforeMaking a difference and building something great aren't mutually exclusiveDiscussed in this episodeJoin us for MEC050: Let AI Agents Market For You [https://join.meclabsai.com/ai-agents] on Tuesday, May 13th at 2 pm EDTCreative Marketing: Does it all make sense?

Sponsored by milk_shake X Hello Salon Pro https://thetease.shop/products/hello-salon-pro-subscription-box Interview with Andrew EdwardsonAndrew Edwardson is the Global Brand President of Matrix. Matrix is a leading professional brand whose mission is to elevate its users through a unique portfolio of products for all hair types and all humans. Since assuming this role two years ago, Andrew has refocused the vision of the brand itself – harnessing and expanding upon its pioneering 44-year legacy to connect with the next generation of consumers and stylists. Throughout his 15-year international career in the beauty industry, Andrew has been instrumental in unlocking the potential of and turning around brands and the categories within. His expertise in luxury brand management, product development, and communications reinvigorated Kérastase to become the #1 luxury hair brand in the industry with iconic products Blond Absolu, and Genesis. He has also worked on industry legend Maybelline, supporting pillars like Fit Me and reviving the complexion category in the post-pandemic decline with new star products like SuperStay 24H Skin Tint and the recently launched Sunkisser liquid blushes. With Matrix, Andrew has the same ambition: for this iconic institution to take its rightful place as the love brand for the next generation. And with that in mind, he is spearheading the modernization of founder Arnie Miller's vision, celebrating Matrix as a brand to elevate, inspire, and bring joy to both new and existing consumers and stylists. His renewed focus on haircare is highlighted by the launch of star range Food For Soft (already top 10 in hydration in the market), as well as the new Instacure Build-A-Bond repair range that delivers one billion bonds in every bottle to fight damage.Links:https://www.instagram.com/iamandrewedwardson/https://www.matrix.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewedwardson/https://www.instagram.com/matrix/ News from TheTease.com: https://www.thetease.com/dreamsgirls-hair-and-donnas-recipe-rally-to-provide-aid-to-those-affected-by-the-los-angeles-wildfires/https://www.thetease.com/fastfoils-brings-new-innovation-to-the-foil-category-with-launch-of-first-endothermic-pop-up-foil/Help Those Impacted By The California Fires: https://www.thetease.com/a-comprehensive-list-of-gofundme-pages-for-beauty-professionals-impacted-by-la-fires/

The art and science of creating transformative brands with guest Emmanuel Probst, author of Brand Hacks and Assemblage – The Art and Science of Brand Transformation, is the topic of this episode of the Integrate & Ignite Marketing Podcast. Tune in as Emmanuel shares with host Lori Jones the concept of assemblage and how building loyalty begins by getting your customers involved in the creative process and making them the hero.

Assemblage: The Art and Science of Brand Transformation by Emmanuel Probst About the Book: Brands can no longer force-feed us a plethora of products we don't need. To succeed, brands must transform us and the world we live in. Assemblage guides you through the art and science of creating transformative brands by combining personal, social, and cultural components. Assemblage will show you Why perception is the truth and how to shape people's perceptions Why we relate to antiheroes, villains, and saviors How brands can reassure consumers about their past, present, and future How to leverage data and insights to deliver a personalized, human-centric consumer experience How brands can make a positive impact on people, society, and the economy Assemblage is supported by in-depth research in consumer psychology, extensive consumer insights, interviews with industry-leading marketers, and case studies of transformative brands, big and small.

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.

New Balance is not only “the shoe brand of choice for film stars, athletes and supermodels,” according to Urban Journal, it's the brand for “the biggest, hype-inducing names on the street right now.” As CMO of the hotly resurgent brand, which was born in 1906, Chris Davis applies a risk/innovation model which puts 50% of the marketing budget into proven, demand-creation tactics, 30% into calculated risks (NFTs, for example) and 20% into purely experimental vehicles that may fail spectacularly or succeed later. Davis, who is also SVP Global Merchandising, says the only unacceptable risk is one that comprimes brand values. He tells us how to transform a 116-year-old product company into a world-class brand.

In aflevering 47 hebben we marketeer, transformatiestrateeg en auteur Herman Toch te gast. Vertrekkend vanuit het razend interessante boek 'The Positive Sum Game', dat hij schreef met zijn partner Ann Maes, hebben we een bijna filosofisch gesprek over transformatie, brand purpose en de veranderende wereld waarin merken zich van een plaats moeten verzekeren. Zo ontdekken we hoe organisaties vandaag geconfronteerd worden met een clash van systemen, en hoe alles wat we voor vanzelfsprekend hielden in dit decennium op veranderen staat. We hebben het over hoe merken op een waardevolle manier een rol kunnen spelen in deze cruciale evoluties door in te zetten op wat goed is voor hen, hun klanten en de wereld rondom hen. We bespreken waarom merken keuzes moeten maken - liefst keuzes die een betere wereld nastreven - om relevant te blijven in een realiteit die op alle manieren in beweging is en hoe ze dat precies moeten aanpakken.

In this special episode of “A Change Mindset,” we reflect on what we've learned about change from our guests so far. We explore how our guests tamed their dragons of fear and discover that three themes — purpose, self-trust and patience — can help us push through fear and face change head on.

Powerful narratives tend to follow a 3-act story structure: the setup, the confrontation, and the resolution. Act One is about establishing characters and their challenges in the world they live in; Act Two is about the actions they take in response to said challenges; and Act Three brings the story to a climax, effectively giving characters a new sense of who they are.     In this fascinating episode, CMO Paul Stoddart lays out the 3-act story behind Epicor’s recent brand development. Tune in to learn how Epicor identified where it was lacking, discovered a new purpose that aligned its brand strategy to its business strategy, and brought its new promise to life through its employees and customers, effectively transforming the organization from the inside out.

  A company's brand transformation process should never be taken lightly, especially for a health insurance company that serves the lives of thousands of people across the country. When David Edelman joined Aetna’s team as the CMO two years ago, he knew that a change was needed to reimagine the public perception of health insurance companies. On this episode of Renegade Thinkers Unite, you’ll learn how he and his team successfully transformed the Aetna brand into one that puts the joy and wellness of its clients first and foremost.David shares why a rebranding transformation is not just a marketing thing — it must be an organization-wide effort that translates to tangible changes for customers. Drew and David also dive into how the Aetna marketing team achieved internal company buy-in, and how acting courageously in their market led to a completely reinvented brand rooted in sincere storytelling. Get inspired to let storytelling drive your next marketing move. Subscribe on Apple Podcasts - Stitcher- or Podsearch What You’ll Learn David’s first challenge was figuring out the space in which Aetna could relate with clients When asked about the healthcare industry, most people will associate the market with negative words and emotions. Overcoming this negative association was David’s first challenge as Aetna’s new CMO. He realized that Aetna had to become so much more than a health insurance company. He tells Drew that they needed to become “a partner in our clients’ lives,” while telling each client, “We’re joining you! You lead, we’ll follow.” By opening up this line of honest communication with their clients, Aetna has been able to enter into new spaces of health, wellness, and preventative medicine. Achieving internal buy-in was critical to the success of Aetna’s brand transformation Before Aetna could help their clients reach their wellness goals, David and his team first had to achieve internal buy-in. Previously, each of Aetna’s departments had their own “feel” and culture. They combated this lack of unity by sharing the new brand promise, explaining priority initiatives, and continually asking for employee feedback and insights. They also used a variety of evaluation and measurement tools that allowed them to make the necessary course corrections throughout the brand transformation process. To hear the full story behind how all of this - and more - was achieved in just 6 months, be sure to listen. Reorienting the B2B and B2C sales teams to sell with storytelling in mind Drew and David talk at length in this episode about how Aetna successfully sells in both the B2B and B2C space. Not only does Aetna sell to individuals and families, but they also offer healthcare packages to small businesses and major corporations. David outlines a few major tools his marketing team was able to share with the sales team to make selling the new Aetna brand easier: Arm the sales team with great content Share the new customer experience Use storytelling techniques - don’t just share lists and data Focus on the idea of “One Aetna” The reorienting process hasn’t been simple, but David and his team have handled it beautifully so far.
