Podcasts about Branding

In this episode, I talk about what I mean by brands. To use trademarks strategically, you need to first understand the role they play in branding to then know why and how to be strategic with them.   A brand is a name that people associate with a set of perceptions. It distinguishes one product or service from another.  Brands are important to us because they provide us with the familiarity we crave as humans. In brief the episode covers: Visual IdentityWhy brand can easily be a business's most valuable asset? Brand Identifiers are non-name signifiers that build mental association to your brand  Trademarks are the most important and potentially valuable IP asset to ownA branding lawyer can help you understand the brand protection aspect of a nameRegistering a trademark to protect your distinctiveness How to avoid trademark legal disputes and litigationValuable Resources:Brand Tuned ScorecardBrand Tuned Acceleratorwww.brandtuned.com

Let me just say that running a business is hard, and running a successful business is even harder.Now, running a successful business at age 23…I'll tell ya, that takes thick skin and the drive to be an actionable entrepreneur. In other words a “get stuff done” mindset.Today my guest is Jacob Hurrell-Zitelman, the 23 year old founder of Quick Sip Coffee and the CEO of getting stuff done.Jacob and I talk about how he went from selling homemade cold brew coffee from his backpack at school, to building a brand and having bottles fly off the shelves of major grocery chains like H-E-B and Central Market, and the many lessons he's learning along the way.I had a great time talking with Jacob and I can't wait to share this episode with you!If this podcast is helping you in your business than help us promote it by following us or leaving us a beautiful 5-star review!

Everyone wants to talk about Brand Identity: Who am I? What am I? What's my niche? Who is my target audience? Where's my community? You know, the usual stuff.But what businesses don't do enough, is put the time in to understand their level of Brand Equity: How much value do you have in the bank today? How many people are buying into your brand right now? Are you getting enough value back? What is your brand perception and experience among those who engage with your brand? Are you generating enough money through your current brand positioning? And how well does every layer of your brand resonate?Understanding and reassessing what your brand equity is while checking if it is in alignment with what you need to achieve is critical to how your business shows up and converts. If you recall my episode about the relationship status  of B.A.E. among your customers, then this is the next level masterclass around that core point.It's all about trust. If you have the trust of your customers, clients, network, community, you can stay (and scale) in business.In today's episode, I'm going to reference this study to talk about trust currency, brand equity, a deep dive into branding, establishing branding positioning, and how it's important to the overall success and sustainability and the scalability and the growth of your business in every facet from you as the business to the consumer, to the customer, to the deliverables and beyond.#####• Rate & Review iDigress: RateThisPodcast.com/iDigress• Get Strategy Solutions & Services: GrowWithTroy.com• Follow Troy on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, Instagram, & Clubhouse @FindTroy

In this episode of Conquer The Noise, Jonathan speaks with Hannah Skvarla, co-founder of The Little Market, and Liesl Gerntholtz, the Chief Program Officer. The Little Market works with global artisans to sell handmade and fair-trade products. It empowers female artisans by providing living wages and dignified work to women worldwide by extending their products' distribution. Established in 2013 as an online marketplace, the nonprofit has grown to include a brick-and-mortar store in California. In just 7 years, the nonprofit has helped create 1 million hours of dignified work for their suppliers. The nonprofit tries to reach out to most marginalized groups and work with them to bring their products to market. Supporting sustainable income opportunities is at its core, and they believe giving women money directly through appropriate product valuation is where real empowerment comes. In addition, the team aims to position and market all products to different marketplaces and create an ongoing relationship with their artisans. Hannah Skvarla shares how she met Liesl Gerntholtz at FIDAM and bonded over their shared passion for community and giving back. She then talks about the trip that helped her understand women's quests for opportunities to work. She learned about the magnitude of existing artisan products and the lack of scalable ways to reach a marketplace. All these eventually led to creating an online marketplace to connect people with ethically made products worldwide.“A living wage is the ability of families to pay for essentials - school, food, rent payment, and some discretionary income. Unfortunately, many jobs don't allow for these, which mandates people to work longer hours”, explains Hannah. The Little Market addresses this by developing living wage guidance for all countries they exist in. They arrive at this by thoroughly analyzing the conditions in which the products are being made and other crucial factors. Hannah states that the real value is in empowering women economically, i.e., enabling them to earn money and decide how to spend it in a safe environment. This is among the reasons for them to focus on dignified work as a measurement. Hannah also reveals how despite COVID, 2020 was their best year to date. She explains how the shopping patterns have changed and how people are more conscious about supporting small businesses. She also describes how the nonprofit's flexible model has been helping them immensely during these uncertain times. The founder also highlights on multiple occasions how this entire initiative isn't about “helping people” but genuinely empowering them. The team works hard to create a partnership. They do not see themselves as service providers but enablers who work closely with artisans to educate them on the best practices while preserving traditional techniques. This entire process is built on relationships and transparency at all levels and is mutually beneficial. Growth for The Little Market is diversifying its portfolio and looking for as many things to sell as possible. This leads to uncovering the challenge Brick-and-mortar throws, especially with shipping costs and the scale of orders making it so hard to ship to many locations. There is also an emphasis on how being a nonprofit has helped them receive the support of some incredible activists, tastemakers, change-makers & celebrities. Hannah also highlights how marketing is quite challenging given the amount of information to get across and expresses how getting better at storytelling is an important goal for the nonprofit. She also covers the difficulties of navigating through the concept of greenwashing. Hannah stresses that as long as the big brands use terms without monitoring how they're being used, it will be hard for a consumer to understand what fair trade is. Lastly, Hannah shares her views on pursuing dreams. She mentions how different experiences can teach people something they might not even realize for the next phase of their career by narrating instances from her own experiences. Liesl mentions how it's about working in places that connect with one's values. She talks about how a lot of her satisfaction has come from feeling like the good she's doing out in the world is replicated by doing it for the team she works with. She then ties it back to the nonprofit's value to treat all staff with dignity and how it is the thread that connects everything. She finds learning about things that are completely outside of her comfort zone and wheelhouse very stimulating. The conversation ends with her stating how learning in one's job and getting out of their comfort zone is excellent.

Welcome to "Beauty and the Biz", where we talk about the business and marketing side of plastic surgery. I'm your host, Catherine Maley, author of "Your aesthetic practice - What your patients are saying", and consultant to plastic surgeons to get them more patients and profits. ​   The Patient Coordinator Role You may not realize how insanely difficult it is to get a complete stranger to buy your cosmetic services. First, they need to become aware of you. Then research you enough to feel compelled to contact you, then meet you and then say yes to you and hand over their credit card. A lot happens between each of those stages, but especially at the converting stage when your would-be patient is at the pivotal moment of saying yes or…. ”I have to think about it and call you back.”  A professionally trained coordinator would NOT set herself up for failure by letting this happen in the first place. She would use proven strategies to not only avoid this from happening, but to methodically prepare the prospective patient to say yes instead. But here's what I see in many practices…. Too many coordinators have been placed in the role with no sales training. Sure, they are nice people, may look the part and be educated on your procedures and processes. However, they don't have the mindset, sales methods or structure to convert more often. And just because your coordinator has been on the job for years doesn't mean she's a professional living up to her potential. Without professional training, she's actually working with one arm behind her back and not able to give you the best results you both want. For example, see if your patient coordinator has these attributes:   Coordinator's Mindset and Attitude A patient coordinator must love serving the public. She must be curious about others and helping them get what they want. She is open and friendly with a ready smile, great eye contact and has a confidant air about her that puts strangers at ease quickly. She doesn't see her role as “selling” but rather as “serving” the public to help them make a good decision. Her money mindset is also solid. She appreciates your skill and expertise and calmly explains why you charge what you charge without apologizing for it.   A Coordinator Builds Rapport A professionally trained coordinator listens and learns. She acts as the patient's aesthetic advisor to help them through their journey, so they are comfortable every step of the way. She builds rapport by asking strategic questions to help her bond with the patient. These questions also help her get to know the prospective patient's pre-conceived beliefs, expectations, and hot buttons to better gauge where the patient is coming from emotionally, physically, as well as financially.   A Coordinator Promotes the Surgeon as the BEST Choice  The right coordinator knows how to strategically build you up BEFORE the patient consultation, so the patient is 70% more likely to say yes during their visit. The right coordinator “drinks the Kool-Aid”. She loves the plastic surgery industry. She's fascinated with the transformations that happen with your patients and wants that for new prospective patients who visit you. She partakes in the services herself and has no qualms about people spending money to enhance their appearance and confidence. She is your biggest fan and knows how to brag about you using presentation tools, so the would-be patient also sees you as the best choice.   A Coordinator Knows How to Present The trained coordinator knows how to use verbal cheerleading to present the quote, so the patient understands all that goes into it and is excited to proceed. She confidently articulates the process, so the patient is comfortable with the steps that follow and reiterates the benefits of choosing you and your practice. The coordinator checks in with the patient throughout her presentation to be sure the patient is following along and still engaged.   A Coordinator Knows How to Convert The professionally trained coordinator knows there is a pivotal point when she stops presenting and asks for the decision in a smooth way that makes it comfortable for the patient to say yes. And, if the patient does have questions or objections, the coordinator calmly addresses them and asks for the decision again using a different angle. So, how did your patient coordinator stack up? Does it sound like you have a professionally trained coordinator representing you to the best of her ability? The point of all this is to remind you that there are nuances to everything. For example, there are nuances to surgical techniques that make all the difference in your outcomes and the same goes for converting consultations. Without knowing these small nuances in the process of converting consultations to paid procedures could be holding her back from greater results. If you believe your coordinator could benefit from professional training, please check out The Converting Club for Coordinators at my website catherinemaley.com where I professionally train coordinators to convert more consultations professionally and confidently.

Today's topic is something people make, save, change, and raise. So what is it?  Money.  Money is a big topic, as there is so much that goes into how we earn money, whether we seek money, our attitudes around money, and more. So much of our lives revolve around money. And blocks around money can be one of the biggest hurdles for many people to get over because we have so many stories and beliefs around money that have been taught to us throughout our lives, many of them that we don't even realize we have.  If you think you don't have blocks around money, you might want to reconsider. We all have “stuff” around money, it just may be at different levels and show up differently for different people. And many people think that simply knowing about their money beliefs is enough.  It's not, though, and this week Nicole is sharing with us a story about how she nearly lost $15,000 due to a money belief she had thought she'd cleared. She's telling us how it came up for her, how she was able to identify it, and how she was able to work through it.  If you're struggling with your own money stuff, Nicole is hosting a 1-day virtual event on October 27th called Ditch Your Money $hit.  You'll learn: The key to making affirmations work for you The 3 Biggest Money Blocks and How to Clear Them Changing the Game Around Debt How to Be in the Energy of Abundance Without Having to Be "High Vibe" 24/7 How to Raise Your "Money Ceiling" to Sustainably Increase Your Income To register for this can't miss event for just $33, head to https://www.nicolelaino.me/money   If you enjoyed this week's episode, I'd so appreciate you doing a few things for me:  Please subscribe to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen!

Artist and designer Debbie Millman has been fascinated by the power of branding for most of her life. And as the host of the Design Matters podcast (which was recently translated into a book, out next month) and chair of the School of Visual Arts's Masters in Branding program, she constantly has branding on her mind. For Millman, part of the allure of logos, identities, and marketing stems from the exercise of clearly and confidently expressing a purpose and meaning—a challenge that she has concurrently grappled with on a personal level. The parallels between aims in her work and life are no coincidence: Millman's professional projects are often her way of searching for answers to life's deepest questions.Millman has long considered how design can reveal people's innermost desires. She has worked at several prominent New York City agencies, including Sterling Brands, for which she served as chief marketing officer and president of its design division for 20 years, and was part of teams that created identities for brands such as 7Up, Burger King, Tropicana, and Twizzlers. She even moonlighted as the first-ever creative director of the pioneering hip-hop radio station Hot 97. Over the years, her career has helped her recognize the importance of slowing down, and of trusting that she doesn't have to approach everything—writing, teaching, special projects, love—as if it's her last chance to experience it.On this episode, Millman describes her quest to feel comfortable in her own skin, talking with Spencer about the benefits of being a good listener, branding and marketing as ways to manufacture meaning, and why she doesn't want to peak until the very end of her life.Show notes:Full transcriptdebbiemillman.com(03:50): Roxane Gay(06:34): Millman's “Together Apart” poster for #CombatCovid(08:15): RAND Art + Data(11:58): Master's in Branding program at the School of Visual Arts(13:19): Why Design Matters: Conversations with the World's Most Creative People (HarperCollins)(13:19): Design Matters podcast(33:52): Look Both Ways (HOW Books)(50:09): Brand Thinking and Other Noble Pursuits (SkyHorse Publishing)(54:35): Millman's 2019 TED Talk, “How Symbols and Brands Shape Humanity”(01:17:16): How to Think Like a Great Graphic Designer (Simon & Schuster)

It's common for someone to see a jar of NuttZo for the first time and wonder, ‘Why is it upside down?' The majority of the brand's nut- and seed-based butters are packaged such that the twist cap is at the base of the jar, allowing for the ingredients' natural oils to rise to the top and make it easier for consumers to stir and blend before use. The unique design is essential for attracting awareness and gaining trial, but as NuttZo founder and CEO Danielle LiVolsi explained in an interview featured in this episode, winning customer loyalty and a policy of no regrets have been the keys to her brand's success. Founded in 2008, NuttZo, which markets all-natural snack bars in addition to its butters, has become a nationally recognized brand available in over 10,000 grocery stores including Walmart and Costco. A former radio sales executive, Danielle bootstrapped the company's launch and development and has emphasized steady growth and a focus on consumer demand for high quality ingredients and customer service. A mother to two adopted sons who are the inspiration for the brand, Danielle also leads NuttZo's sister nonprofit, Project Left Behind, for which a portion of all sales support orphaned and underserved children around the world.  As part of our conversation, LiVolsi recounted the creation of NuttZo and the creative ways that she won the brand's first retail buyers, why she adheres to the Nordstrom model of customer service, the reason she has turned down offers to invest in the company and why she fears regret more than she does failure.  Also featured in this episode is an interview with Kun Yang, the co-founder and CEO of Pricklee. Co-founded by a team of pharmacists and launched in 2017, Pricklee markets beverages made from prickly pear juice and is described as “cactus water.” Yang recalled Pricklee's backstory, how his team is leveraging consumer awareness about coconut water to build the brand, the impact of localized social marketing and what he described as the keys to learning the ropes of the beverage business and adapting quickly. Show notes: 0:45: Interview: Danielle LiVolsi, Founder & CEO, NuttZo -- LiVolsi and Taste Radio editor Ray Latif kicked off their conversation with a discussion about a helpful Facebook Group called #OMGCPG, how global supply chain issues affected the launch of a new product, why getting massages are great for ideation and how she de-stresses and avoids burnout. She also recalled early challenges in product development, how she landed meetings with a Whole Foods buyer and the founder of natural grocery chain Jimbo's, why she's adamant about not accepting outside investment unless it's a ‘perfect fit' and why she tapped her mother to manage phone-based customer service for the company. Later, she explained why she is still regularly involved in sales meetings and why she believes that despite missteps in building Nuttzo, she wouldn't do anything differently. 44:48: Interview: Kun Yang, Co-Founder and CEO, Pricklee -- Latif sat down with Yang for a conversation with Yang recorded at Natural Products Expo East 2021, where the entrepreneur discussed the inspiration for Pricklee and its diverse team of founders and how the company is using coconut water as a point of reference for new consumers while simultaneously calling for “NOMOCOCO.” He also spoke about how Pricklee is utilizing TikTok and Instagram to target consumers in specific regions of the U.S., the brand's uses of SMS-based marketing and why building a community of advisors has been critical to the company's growth. The interview also includes a brief cameo from none other than The Beverage Whisperer himself, Ken Sadowsky. Brands in this episode: NuttZo, Jif, Pricklee

How to promote your new business without being spammy   “No one goes on Social Media to be sold to.”   Brooke Elder   Podcast 162 brings you another episode of the Spam Squad! Brooke walks through what you should and what you shouldn't do to promote your business without being spammy!!   When you first starting a network marketing business you are so excited and can't wait to tell everyone about the amazing products and the great opportunities. If you aren't careful it is easy to overload on spamminess!   “People come to social media to be entertained. They come to connect, they come to hear stories.” - Brooke Elder.   So how do you tell a compelling story? Talk about one of the products you offer and tell an example of a problem it solves. Tell your story about why you love it.   After telling your story say, “you know, I just joined this new company and here's why it was love at first sight, because this, this and this.”   Then instead of just sending them, “here's a link, just order from me,” invite them to your launch party on your Facebook group.   Teach them why it is that they actually need your product by doing five or six posts. Think of the products that you offer and tell a story in a post about each one and the problem that they solve.    When you craft a post with a personal story people feel more connected. They want to find out all it is that you have to offer because you are taking them on a journey. It's not just, here's a post. I joined a new company, buy my stuff.   “It is your job to know how to connect with your audience and to be able to help and serve them.” - Brooke Elder.    When you create an experience for people through storytelling they connect better with you and your products. When that's your focus, your marketing is going to be a hundred times more effective because you're connecting with people and you're making it about them, and they can see themselves in the story.    How to get involved If you are ready to take your business online and have the system to free up your time AND bring in the customers and recruits you want, check out www.socialtenacitytraining.com!

What's In This Episode: What happens to you when folks can't find things on your website? Do you go to a dark place? Blame it on the rain? Wonder why you ever bothered to build a website in the first place? Jill wants you to really think about all those users who stop by and can't do the things you want them to do. It might be your fault. It might be their fault. It might be Mark Zuckerberg's fault. How can we founders handle this one a bit better than we often do? Jill Salzman turns the mundane into inspiration and transforms the impossible into the achievable. Through defying expectations and breaking the rules, she succeeds in inspiring entrepreneurs to figure out what works for them by using meaningful action to create positive results. Jill is the author of The Best Business Book In The World* (according to my mom) and the Amazon best-seller, Found It: A Field Guide for Mom Entrepreneurs. She's shared the speaker stage with Richard Branson, Sheryl Sandberg, Daymond John, Marilu Henner, and Desmond Tutu among others, and professed her love of Eddie Vedder in her TEDx talk on 11/11/11. She hosts the top-rated entertaining business podcast, Why Are We Shouting?, a question she asks herself daily. CNNMoney calls her a “mommy mogul.” MSN Live says she's a “Cool Mom Entrepreneur We Love.” Forbes rated her a Top 100 Champion Small Business Influencer and voted The Founding Moms one of the Top 10 Websites For Entrepreneurs. When she's not speaking to audiences in patterned leggings or podcasting from her basement, she fruitlessly tries to convince her daughters that cassette tapes actually existed.

So it's kind of a weird varying market in a lot of ways but there are definitely opportunities.” - Andrew Ward“There's so many companies and I think that people need to realize that there's so many different pathways into the industry.” - Andrew Ward“I'm like, yeah, that's [legalization] just not how things work. It's about politics. And it's about the process. And sometimes, that has a much bigger undertaking to get things to move, maybe in a direction that you want it to move.” -  Shayda Torabi“We always think about the big scene and how we can make a big impact.
