Podcasts about Branding

Vlad Tenev built Robinhood by breaking every rule Wall Street wrote: zero commissions when competitors charged $10, mobile-first when "serious" investors demanded desktop, a brand that made finance feel like rebellion instead of a club you'd never join.By 2021 they'd forced every major brokerage to slash fees and attracted millions who'd never owned a stock, but then GameStop happened: trading restrictions during the meme stock frenzy triggered congressional hearings, user fury, and a two-year brand crisis that nearly buried them despite the real culprit being antiquated clearing mechanics no one understood. Now Tenev's pushing an even more radical vision—tokenizing private company shares so retail investors can own stakes in AI giants before IPO, turning prediction markets into "truth machines" that beat polls and pundits, and building what he calls the end of financial nihilism: a platform where your seventy-year-old parents and your Gen Z cousin both manage everything from retirement accounts to election bets in one place.The question isn't whether traditional finance survives this; it's whether Robinhood can move fast enough to own the entire wealth transfer before someone else does. Resources:Follow Vlad Tenev on X: https://x.com/vladtenevFollow Alex Rampell on X: https://x.com/arampellFollow Erik Torenberg on X: https://x.com/eriktorenberg Stay Updated:If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to like, subscribe, and share with your friends!Find a16z on X: [https://x.com/a16z](https://x.com/a16z)Find a16z on LinkedIn: [https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16z](https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16z)Listen to the a16z Podcast on Spotify: [https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYX](https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYX)Listen to the a16z Podcast on Apple Podcasts: [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711](https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711)Follow our host: [https://x.com/eriktorenberg](https://x.com/eriktorenberg)Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you an entrepreneur looking to grow and thrive in the legal space? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson interviews Matt Anderson, an attorney and real estate investor, about his unconventional journey blending law, entrepreneurship, and property investing. Matt shares lessons from multi-level marketing and business ownership and emphasizes the importance of hiring for culture fit.For lawyers who are new to the entrepreneurial space, it is possible to build a firm that runs on minimal daily involvement. In order to do this, you need to let go of a lot of the day to day work of practicing law as well as partner and hire individuals who can help you achieve that. Partner with another lawyer who has the same vision as you. After that, look at hiring good lawyers who will do all the necessary work that will bring you success. That way, you can spend your day doing what you want to do.Matt provides some insights on hiring staff based on culture and character, rather than experience. One way to do this is utilizing personality tests, inner metrics and multiple interviews to find the right fit. For Matt, anyone can learn a skill or aspects of a job. But, not everyone has the character or personality to work for a certain firm. As an owner, you need to determine what kind of firm you want to run and hire people based on what matters to you most.Listen in to learn more!2:01 Creative Side Hustles in Law School4:13 Building a Business, Not Just Practicing Law9:44 Hiring and Personality Fit16:32 Buying Law Firm Real Estate 23:23 Creative Financing and Seller Deals 25:12 Renting vs. Owning Your Home29:24 AI as a Law Firm Leveler32:13 Preventing Lifestyle Creep in Law Firms34:06 Impact of AI and the Future of Office Space43:36 Who Runs the Firm?47:20 Biggest Surprises in Partnership 49:40 Implementing AI in the Firm53:03 The Role of Hard Work in Success 58:03 Importance of Emotional Intelligence (EQ)Connect with Matt:Website  LinkedIn  Tune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here. 

Elliot Moss didn't join a law firm to keep things the same. As Partner and Chief Brand Officer at Mishcon de Reya LLP, he brought a deep understanding of branding into a profession that often dismisses it, and changed how one of the UK's top firms thinks about growth and perception. He shares how clarity, consistency, and emotional intelligence turned Mishcon from a £45 million practice into a £380 million brand defined by truth and differentiation, not slogans. Clients, he says, may buy expertise, but they stay because of trust and how a firm makes them feel.   He talks candidly about leading change in a culture that prizes logic over emotion, showing how small wins and patience can reshape perception from within. The conversation moves beyond marketing into the psychology of leadership, exploring why authentic differentiation matters more than polish and how strong branding can become a firm's greatest competitive advantage. For Elliot, the future of law will belong to those who understand that perception drives performance—and that real brand power is earned, not advertised.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Building a Brand Inside a Law Firm 04:35 From Advertising to Legal Branding 06:30 Why Differentiation Matters in Professional Services 09:08 Changing Client Perception Through Authentic Branding 15:33 Strategy and Growth at Mishcon de Reya LLP 24:32 Leading Change in a Traditional Industry 31:16 AI, Private Capital, and the Future of Law Firms 36:59 Elliot Moss on Leadership and Opportunity Connect with Elliot Moss Connect with Elliot on LinkedIn Elliot's Web Bio   Connect with Howard Rosenberg: Connect with Howard on LinkedIn Howard's Company Web Profile   Connect with Chris Batz: Connect with Chris on LinkedIn  Follow Columbus Street on LinkedIn Columbus Street Website  Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Top Stories for November 18th Publish Date: November 18th PRE-ROLL: BUFORD HOLIDAY FESTIVAL From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, November 18th and Happy Birthday to astronaut Allan Shepard I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. The Sandwich Project celebrates milestones and welcomes new executive director Norcross receives international award for branding efforts Elementary and middle school cellphone bans proving popular, as debate moves to high schools All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: Kia Mall of Georgia STORY 1: The Sandwich Project celebrates milestones and welcomes new executive director Before the latest government shutdown even hit, the Sandwich Project was already out there—quietly, relentlessly—feeding Atlanta’s hungry. This grassroots nonprofit, born in the chaos of 2020, has now delivered over 2.2 million sandwiches across metro Atlanta. Two million sandwiches. Let that sink in. And now, they’ve got their first executive director: Christine Cooper Nowicki, a longtime volunteer with a heart for service. “This wasn’t something I saw coming,” she admits, “but food insecurity has always been personal for me.” Every week, volunteers—families, Girl Scouts, Rotary Clubs—make 8,000 sandwiches. It’s messy, beautiful, and life-changing work. Learn more at thesandwichproject.org. STORY 2: Norcross receives international award for branding efforts Norcross just snagged a Silver Davey Award—pretty impressive, right? Out of 2,000+ global entries, this small-but-mighty city was recognized for its killer branding and communication efforts in the Government and Municipal category. The secret sauce? A partnership with Lawrenceville’s Accent Creative Group, the creative minds behind Norcross’ ads, event logos, social media, and more. “Our brand isn’t just a look,” said Mayor Craig Newton. “It’s how we tell our story.” The Davey Awards celebrate big ideas on small budgets, and Norcross nailed it—showcasing a community alive with culture, creativity, and connection. Not bad for a little city with big heart. STORY 3: Elementary and middle school cellphone bans proving popular, as debate moves to high schools Georgia high schools might soon say goodbye to cellphones, following the success of bans already in place at some schools. Starting next fall, a new law will require elementary and middle schools to lock up phones during the day. High schools aren’t included—yet. But with 92% of teachers supporting the idea, according to a Georgia Southern University survey, the push is gaining momentum. At Lakeside High in DeKalb, Principal Susan Stoddard said banning phones was a game-changer: “You heard kids talking again—actual conversations in the hallways.” Still, some parents worry about emergencies. Lawmakers? Divided. But this debate isn’t over. Not even close. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets 7- Sugar Hill Holiday STORY 4: Agency seeks more power to enforce campaign finance law Georgia’s election finance watchdog wants sharper teeth, and lawmakers might just hand them over. The State Ethics Commission says it needs more power to investigate campaign finance violations—like the $300,000 fine it slapped on Stacey Abrams’ nonprofit earlier this year for failing to disclose millions in donations and spending. Sen. Bill Cowsert, who’s running for attorney general, is leading the charge. “We need transparency,” he said. “Big money shouldn’t dominate politics.” But critics call it political theater, especially with Fulton DA Fani Willis now in the committee’s crosshairs. Meanwhile, the Ethics Commission says it’s hamstrung without stronger subpoena powers. The fight’s far from over. STORY 5: Corps of Engineers says below normal rainfall could make Lake Lanier hazardous Lake Lanier’s water level is holding steady—for now. As of last week, it sat at 1,065.51 feet, just a hair above the historic median of 1,065.39 feet for this time of year. But here’s the catch: rainfall’s been scarce lately, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is keeping a close watch. “The dry spell could mean lower levels ahead,” said Dustin Gautney from the Corps. And with Lanier’s hidden hazards—tree stumps, old roadbeds, even remnants of submerged towns—boaters and swimmers need to stay sharp. The advice? Wear your life jacket, watch for obstacles, and stay safe out there. We’ll be right back. Break 3: Sugar Hill Ice Skating Rink Final STORY 6: Loganville shooting suspect arrested in Lawrenceville A chaotic Friday afternoon unfolded as a shooting at a Loganville CVS ended with an arrest in downtown Lawrenceville. Loganville police issued a BOLO alert around 4 p.m. for a vehicle tied to a “serious incident” at the CVS on Atlanta Highway, where a woman had been shot in the head. Critical condition. No name released. Lawrenceville’s FLOCK cameras flagged the car near the Square. Officers swarmed West Crogan Street, shields up, and arrested the driver without a fight. The suspect’s name? Still under wraps. The victim? Airlifted to Grady. It’s a mess, and the investigation is ongoing. STORY 7: State raises red flags in Gwinnett Schools' CCRPI report Gwinnett County Public Schools is celebrating some wins in college and career readiness—but the state’s latest report card tells a more complicated story. Sure, GCPS outperformed Georgia in seven areas, mostly in elementary and middle schools. But high schools? They’re lagging. The only bright spot there is content mastery. And across all levels, the district is struggling to close gaps, especially in English Language Arts. Red flags? Plenty. Targets missed for multiple demographics—African-American, Hispanic, economically disadvantaged, and more. Progress scores for high schools dropped by over 10 points. The takeaway? There’s work to do. Wins are great, but gaps can’t be ignored. We’ll have closing comments after this Break 4: STRAND THEATRE Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

This week we're doing something special: sharing an episode from Good Folks Doing Good Work that dives deep into branding, clarity, and the heart behind the work we do. It's a conversation about understanding who you are, what you're trying to say, and how the choices you make — from design to customer experience — shape the way people connect with your brand. At its core, this episode is a reminder that branding isn't about trends or aesthetics. It's about intention. When you know your values and you communicate them clearly, you build something people can feel. We loved this conversation, and we're excited to pass it along because it captures the kind of thoughtful, purpose-driven creativity we believe in.

I have a confession to make. There is a part of my business that I ignored for not weeks, not months, but YEARS because I didn't understand it. It was acting as a roadblock for people to take me seriously as an online coach, but I didn't know what to do about it [even though I TRIED to fix it on my own]. Today's guest has been a friend of mine for over a DECADE & back in 2024, she *lovingly* told me that I was missing a huge puzzle piece in my business. It was… BRANDING. No matter how hard I tried, I didn't know how to convey the LUXURY experience my clients were having to other people in my fonts, colors, logo, & OVERALL VIBE!! If you've been in my world long enough - do you remember my pink palm tree wallpaper I had in my office? LOL.   Today's guest, Carlee McKee, is the number 1 name that comes to my mind when I think of “luxury branding” for high-ticket coaches. In fact, she is the creative mind behind ALL of my branding [& most recently, one of my client's as well]!   Today, Carlee is joining the show to help you achieve high level branding so you can attract qualified leads to your high-ticket coaching offers.   Xoxo, Camie  

What does the producer of Wedding Crashers, Serendipity, and Van Wilder know about building brands? Turns out—a lot. This week on On Brand, Andrew Panay shares how Hollywood storytelling principles shape not just hit movies but also unforgettable brand stories for companies like T-Mobile, Microsoft, and Anheuser-Busch. What You'll Learn Why originality—not imitation—is still the most powerful creative strategy How Hollywood storytelling principles can strengthen brand storytelling The fine line between risk and reward in brand work Why celebrating success starts with knowing your “why” How T-Mobile's storytelling edge became a creative advantage Episode Chapters (00:00) Intro (00:30) From Hollywood to branding (02:00) The disconnect between filmmakers and brands (03:30) What Wedding Crashers teaches us about 30-second storytelling (05:00) Capturing attention in seconds, not minutes (08:00) Creativity, evolution, and staying uncomfortable (10:40) Originality vs imitation in marketing (20:30) Balancing elegant risk with commercial success (25:00) The brand that made Andrew smile (27:30) Where to learn more about Panay Films Andrew Panay is the founder and CEO of Panay Films and a veteran Hollywood producer whose movies—including Wedding Crashers, Serendipity, and Van Wilder—have grossed more than $800 million worldwide. Beyond film and television, Panay brings his storytelling craft to branded content and advertising for companies such as T-Mobile, Microsoft, and Anheuser-Busch. His signature approach blends cinematic storytelling with strategic brand thinking, creating work that moves audiences—and the business forward. What Brand Has Made Andrew Smile Recently? Andrew pointed to Nike for a recent campaign during the World Series. The spot used a clever mashup of sound, attitude, and nostalgia—culminating with Ken Griffey Jr.'s signature backward cap and mischievous grin. For Andrew, it was the perfect example of creative “juj”—that mix of confidence, playfulness, and truth that makes great storytelling irresistible.

This week, Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest, Michelle Perreault. The two talk about how Michelle Perreault transformed her freelance business into a mission-driven company, the unique challenges of helping resource-limited organizations communicate their impact, and the innovative ways MOD-Lab continues to provide value for clients beyond just exceptional design. In this episode, we discuss: How Michelle started as a freelance designer, then founded MOD-Lab to provide high-quality branding and design support to nonprofits, focusing on organizations that make a real difference in their communities.​ What inspired Michelle to focus on nonprofits? She said working with mission-driven organizations fuels her purpose and enthusiasm. The joy she finds in helping resource-limited teams strengthen their brand and share their story to create impact is at the core of MOD-Lab. When Michelle decided to build a team, she transitioned from freelancing to a company as the demand for her services increased. She describes the slow, organic path that shaped MOD-Lab's culture. Why MOD-Lab's success hinges on prioritizing relationships and referrals, emphasizing trust, collaboration, and a strong network over nearly two decades. How consistent branding helps nonprofits fundraise and make an impact; Michelle highlights key differences between nonprofit and for-profit models. Michelle Perreault is the Founder, Creative Director, and Lead Designer at MOD-Lab (Minds On Design Lab). MOD-Lab is the thoughtful design partner for small teams doing big things in the social sector. We create memorable branding, design materials, and websites. With over 25 years of experience working with small teams, she understands the realities they face: limited capacity, tight budgets, and ambitious goals. Often, they don't have design expertise or leadership as part of their teams. Design is a vehicle to inspire confidence, clarity, and trust around a brand, so not having dedicated design resources is a detriment. She works to change this by offering organizations a dedicated part-time design team. At MOD-Lab, she has refined practical, scalable design processes that meet organizations where they are and help them grow with confidence. Her goal is to be a true brand advocate for client partners, ensuring every piece of communication aligns with their mission, strengthens their message, and looks beautiful.

Every CMO faces the same question: how do you balance long-term brand equity with short-term performance marketing?In the fifth episode of The Brand Builder's Playbook, hosts Jim Stengel and Ryan Barker, along with guest co-host Lindsey Wehking, tackle one of the most heated debates in modern marketing: brand versus performance. Is short-term activation enough, or does long-term brand building ultimately win?This week's guest is Andrea Brimmer, Chief Marketing and PR Officer at Ally, who has spent nearly two decades transforming Ally from a regional bank into one of America's most admired challenger brands. Andrea shares the inside story of launching the Ally brand, driving growth through bold, customer-centric marketing, and proving that financial services can stand for transparency and trust. The conversation explores how to build brands people truly love, balance creativity with measurable results, and use brand purpose as a competitive advantage.“We have to stop calling it brand versus performance.

Lupine Skelly, Retail Research Leader at Deloitte, joins Phillip and Alicia to dissect the stark reality behind this year's holiday shopping forecast. Consumer spending is projected to drop by 10%, and economic pessimism has reached its highest level since the Great Recession. As a result, retailers are facing a season where communicating value is key. This conversation explores the enduring vitality of Black Friday, the quiet revolution of private label brands, and how cultural rituals, AI integration, and brand loyalty are being fundamentally rewired. The Data Doesn't LieKey Takeaways:Shoppers expect to spend $1,595 this season as economic concerns peak57% expect the economy to weaken, the most pessimistic outlook recorded since 1997Black Friday remains vital despite two decades of obituaries24% of budgets are spent by October due to the Prime Day effectPrivate label gains ground as brand loyalty fundamentally shiftsKey Quotes:[00:02:10.14] Lupine Skelly: "57% of people are saying they expect the economy to weaken in the year ahead, and that's the highest we've seen since we started tracking that question in 1997. To put that in context, 2008 was probably the next highest at 54%—that was around the Great Recession. So [there's] a lot of uncertainty out there."[00:04:42.72] Lupine Skelly: "I feel like people have been trying to kill off Black Friday for 20 years. Is Black Friday dead? It's not dead."[00:13:17.91] Lupine Skelly: "In our study, 42% of consumers are saying they're going to use gen AI to find the perfect gift. And even more are saying they're going to use it to find the best deals."[00:25:49.24] Lupine Skelly: "Retail is always battling for share of wallet, but I think we're at a very different time period. Gaming, gambling—there's some big juggernauts taking what might have been the money you used to go to the mall years ago."Associated Links:Dig deeper into Deloitte data and insights hereCheck out Future Commerce on YouTubeCheck out Future Commerce+ for exclusive content and save on merch and printSubscribe to Insiders and The Senses to read more about what we are witnessing in the commerce worldListen to our other episodes of Future CommerceHave any questions or comments about the show?
