Challenger Series competitor, former Championship Tour surfer, and DJ Dimity Stoyle joins to talk about her career. She discusses focusing all her energy at the moment on the Challenger Series, starting off at Gold Coast and continuing at Sydney. She looks back at how commentating with Laura Enever on the WSL broadcasts last year and making the film Surfing with Dan Scott, Ava Warbrick, and all her closest friends during the pandemic gave her the urge to return to doing contests. She talks about signing with Roxy at age 30 and shares thoughts on the current state of surfing, how major brands are shifting more towards valuing people who are true to who they are and passionate about what they do, and trying to set a good example for the next generation of women in surfing. Then she dives into her DJ career, her alter-ego Shimmy Disco, the music she loves to play, how she creates a vibe, and how DJing is her second passion and the perfect job for a surfer. Dimity also shares stories about her origin story, her eye-opening first season on the Championship Tour, traveling and competing with Steph Gilmore, her future plans for music, and what she's looking forward to for the rest of the Challenger Series season. Learn more about Dimity here / here, support Shimmy Disco here, and check out her Roxy team vid here.   Watch her next at the GWM Sydney Surf Pro presented by Rip Curl live May 17-24.

We discuss how she founded AF Ventures and leveraged her network as a lawyer, and how she thinks about growth for digitally native brands in this current age. Some of the questions I ask her: Can you please share a little about AF Ventures background? What was your initial attraction to consumer brands? How has AF Ventures evolved over the past few years? What are the most recent trends within consumer that you are most passionate about? How has COVID impacted recent trends? Does a product “need to work in retail” for you to invest? Why did you decide to raise a SPAC? We've also seen incredible growth from brands despite global supply chain issues. As an investor and advisor, how do you navigate or comprehend where we are currently at? What's one thing you would change about venture capital? What VC advice do you have for entrepreneurs/founders?

This is Superlative: A Podcast about watches, the people behind them, and the worlds that inspire them. This week our host Ariel Adams is joined by a long time friend of his in the industry, Hampton Carney, CEO and Owner of Paul Wilmot Communications. To start the show our pair today talk about what a PR Firm like Paul Wilmot Communications really does today, and the value that they bring to the table when dealing with major brands. Ariel asks how Hampton's personal watch enthusiasm helps him do his job when a lot of PR Firms have no real interest in the space, and how that has made them stick out from the competition. The topic of dealing with a “PR Crisis” and so-called “Horror Stories” from the industry are chatted about between the two, and Hampton talks about a specific case that would be difficult to deal with if it were to happen today. Ariel drops a great theoretical question on what would a “Hamptons Watch Brand” look like if he were to make one today based on everything he has learned about marketing a luxury watch brand, and what other idea he may have as well?To stay updated with Hampton and Paul Wilmot Communications:- Website - http://www.paulwilmot.com/- Instagram @Paulwilmotcomm - https://www.instagram.com/paulwilmotcomm/To check out the ABTW Shop where you can see our products inspired by our love of Horology:- Shop ABTW - https://store.ablogtowatch.com/To keep updated with everything Superlative and aBlogtoWatch, check us out on:- Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ablogtowatch/- Twitter - https://twitter.com/ABLOGTOWATCH- Website - https://www.ablogtowatch.com/If you enjoy the show please Subscribe, Rate, and Review!

This episode is brought to you by Sendlane.     Betterly is all about marrying two concepts that don't traditionally live together - the marketplace and community, says Alex Bocquet, founder of Betterly, a freelance marketplace for digital marketers in the U.S. "One of my favorite things about working in an agency was the community - the camaraderie between all of the people who worked with me," Alex says. "And certainly when I started to freelance more and left my old agency job, I lost that sense because I started to distance myself not in the Slack channel anymore." The ideal customer for Betterly's services is the traditional "bread and butter" e-commerce brand that sells an actual product - a CPG brand, Alex says. "Now, that's not to say that it's the only thing they're able to do," Alex says. "I think lead generation is also a big one, whether it's directly through a funnel for your sales team to go and close or whether it's an app in-store. It's anything direct to consumer that's trackable. We can make sense of a cost from the freelancer and its marketing versus the tangible return on that investment." As for the typical revenue of a customer, Alex says it's usually between a pre-revenue startup situation to an eight-figure brand. "These are the brands that either don't want to sign up for an expensive, long-term commitment agency, or they're simply brands that are also seasonal," he says. "There are seasonal brands that come to the pipeline that just want to use a freelancer for three months without the commitment." As for trends in the freelance marketing space, Alex says he still sees many e-commerce brands that don't have an SMS funnel setup. Another trend is the proliferation in the use of TikTok. Brands seem unable to repurpose content or use influencers on TikTok effectively. In Part 2, Alex talks about: * The joy of community. * What the ideal customer is for Betterly. * Why a company would prefer a short-term freelancer to a full-time staff person. * What onboarding is like. * The current "low-hanging fruit" of the freelance marketing space. Join Ramon Vela and Alex Bocquet as they break down the inside story on The Story of a Brand. For more on Betterly, visit: https://betterly.io/ Subscribe and Listen to the podcast on all major apps.

If all DTC companies were forced to turn off Facebook ads, they'd be dead on arrival. Why is that? They over-invest in paid acquisition and under-invest in retention. Luckily, Sendlane makes it easy to solve this problem. Sendlane is an E-Commerce Customer Experience Platform helping hundreds of DTC brands to tighten their existing customer relationships. Sendlane automates personalized customer experiences through Welcome and Abandoned Cart workflows, SMS, Deep Data Integrations with Shopify and WooCommerce, multi-store functionality, and much more.

This episode is brought to you by Sendlane.     Betterly is in the business of hooking up quality freelance digital marketers with brands that are struggling to hire qualified professionals, says Alex Bocquet, founder of Betterly. "Hiring full time has its own set of issues and certainly hiring an agency as well," Alex says. "But essentially what we do is empower the freelance community to find high-paying gigs with companies that are growing with amazing products that they can have an actual impact." Still, it's more of an online community than a matchmaking service. "We're not just a freelance marketplace," Alex says. "We've created a community where all of our freelancers get to interact with each other, exchange the best tips and tricks, the latest hacks that you can leverage for your TikTok ad campaigns (and) your Facebook ad campaigns. ... No one else can access this community unless they're vetted better marketers. And the beauty of it is that they teach each other." Freelancers in the Betterly community get support, too, particularly in the form of tools and licenses they probably can't afford on their own. Support is also available in the form of work-life balance. Meditation and yoga workshops are available, and freelancers are encouraged to take care of their health. "I think that if I can provide all of those benefits for my freelancers if there is a healthy platform to operate in, I will retain them longer," Alex says. Alex's background is unique too. He left France for the U.S. after high school to pursue a career in marketing.

On this episode of The Courageous Podcast, we sit down with Bjorn Trowery who joined Meta's Communications/PR team near the beginning of the pandemic and the tail end of the brand formerly known as Facebook. We discuss what it's like for Bjorn to establish credibility with a new team handcuffed away from his “personal superpower”; his ability to be live, collaborating and in-person.

 Listen to our live conversation with Professor Rajesh Bhargave and Rival Co-Founders DuBose Cole and Eric Fulwiler as we present the findings and implications from our Q2 report.

On this episode, Donny sits down with America's most famous astrophysicist and author Neil deGrasse Tyson. The two dive right into Neil's passion for the universe and his mission to help human beings experience it in all the dimensionality that it is. In this conversation Neil defines the universe, a word bigger than the universe, life on other planets and how being a kid from the Bronx helped cultivate a relationship with the night sky. Together Neil and Donny discuss the marketing of science, Neil's brand, how Neil approaches those who don't believe in science, his thoughts on living on Mars, and how social media may still be in its infancy stage. But first, Donny dives into his "Brands of the Week" segment, highlighting Hot Wheels, Ed Koch, and Dr. Strange among many others.

This episode is brought to you by Yotpo.   To serve as a niche to startup entrepreneurs and provide an alternative to incumbent banking institutions - that's the mission of Mercury, says Travis Price, e-commerce growth lead for the company.   "One of the reasons I switched my e-commerce business banking over to Mercury is that I was fed up with going into a Wells Fargo branch once a week to send an international wire," Travis says. "It took 30 minutes to an hour out of my day. I'd have to sit there, wait for a teller to go through the paperwork and all the wire transfer details, and pay $45 for that wire to go through. And, at the end of the day, with technology, you can remove all of those steps that have become so cumbersome to entrepreneurs who just want to move fast and not waste time."   Travis started e-commerce, selling a Christmas stocking that dispensed wine. The product went viral and sold out its first order of 15,000 units in six days.   "Through that experience, I learned everything from product prototyping, manufacturing, supply chain, marketing, sales, and eventually an exit to a larger corporation," he says.   That experience as a founder serves Travis well at Mercury, creating empathy and understanding with startup entrepreneurs.   He says that Mercury's services also cater to international entrepreneurs, allowing people to be "nomads" and operate from anywhere in the world.   In Part 1, Travis talks about:   * Gratitude for a cousin who invested a large financial investment in his first business. * An explanation of Mercury's services and programs. * His background in business before joining Mercury. * How Mercury can help business owners outside the U.S. open accounts here.   Join Ramon Vela and Travis Price as they break down the inside story on The Story of a Brand.   For more on Mercury, visit: https://mercury.com/    Subscribe and Listen to the podcast on all major apps.

When Bridget Connelly started Luna Bay Booch in 2018, the hard kombucha category consisted of a handful of brands, most of which were positioned as alternatives to craft beer and focused on distribution in Southern California. A former social media strategist for Lululemon, Connelly took a different tack.  She swathed Luna Bay with an ethereal vibe and incorporated design elements that highlighted its premium ingredients, better-for-you attributes and proprietary blend of Yerba Mate tea and seasonal fruits and herbs. Without any prior beverage alcohol industry experience, Bridget laid down roots in Chicago and focused on building a retail presence in the Midwest.   While the hard kombucha category is now represented by dozens of brands, Luna Bay's differentiated look and distribution strategy has supported the brand's expansion into retail stores nationwide, including those of Target, Marianos, Trader Joe's and Jewel-Osco. In an interview featured in this episode, Connelly spoke about her inspiration for Luna Bay and the origins of its name, why brand story was a key asset when meeting with retail buyers, how the pandemic influenced consumer awareness and interest, why investment in the category is a two-sided story and why she credits mentors as critical to the brand's development. Show notes: 0:49: Interview: Bridget Connelly, Co-Founder/CEO, Luna Bay Booch – Connelly and Taste Radio editor Ray Latif riffed on the entrepreneur's love of surfing, reflected on their first meeting in 2019 and the brand's origins in San Diego. She also addressed a writer's description of Luna Bay as a “a hippie-ish alcohol brand,” the brand's hierarchy of values and how it is depicted on the packaging and explained growing retailer interest in hard kombucha. Later, she discussed the continued lack of investment in female-led brands and why asking for specific help is important when working with mentors. Brands in this episode: Luna Bay Booch, Flying Embers, Juneshine, SkinnyDipped

How to Use TikTok for Marketing and Customer Service Shep Hyken interviews Dennis Yu, CEO BlitzMetrics and author of The Definitive Guide to TikTok Advertising: How to Access 1 Billion People in 10 Minutes! They discuss how businesses can use TikTok to promote their brand and enhance customer experience.  Top Takeaways:   ·      Social Media is an opportunity for a brand to show the world that they are interested in resolving issues for their customer. ·      The fastest-growing content on TikTok right now is catered to B2B. ·      Dennis Yu shared these tips (and more) on how to use TikTok for business: 1.    Keep TikToks at 15-30 seconds long. ByteDance, the parent company that owns TikTok, found that the most viral videos are 22 seconds long. 15 to 30 seconds is the sweet spot because you have to have a high completion rate. Your audience needs to watch until the end of the video. 2.    Advertise on TikTok. The price to advertise TikTok is about 1/4 of what it is on Facebook because the supply is higher than the demand. There are so many users, and there are not that many advertisers. This might change in a year. 3.    Use Spark Ad. It lets you boost another user's content. Brands can boost their customers' content using a code. Spark Ads performs differently than if you were to post from your brand account because everything on TikTok needs to feel human and personal. 4.    Repurpose content. We want to repurpose content that has already worked on YouTube, Facebook, blogs, etc., and turn those into TikToks.  Quote:  “TikTok in 2022 is Facebook in 2007. Now, it has more traffic than Google, a higher average watch time than Facebook or Netflix, and it is now the top downloaded app.” About:   Dennis Yu is a Digital Marketer, Speaker, Agency Builder and the CEO BlitzMetrics. He is the author of The Definitive Guide to TikTok Advertising: How to Access 1 Billion People in 10 Minutes!   Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and your host of Amazing Business Radio.  Learn more about your ad choices.
