Both Brian and Ed are seasoned dads, coaches, and longtime ministry leaders who have spent decades serving in the youth sports space.

If you're a ministry leader, you'll walk away with a few ideas for how to support parents who are navigating both the pressures and opportunities that come with youth sports.

Nel 1978, Brian Smith si è appena laureato in ragioneria dopo dieci anni di studi ed è certo di una cosa: non farà mai il ragioniere. Invece si trasferirà dall'Australia agli Stati Uniti e fonderà UGG, vendendo solo 28 paia di scarponcini nel primo anno. Dovrà scoprire l'importanza dell'esperienza di marca per avere successo.Oggi l'esperienza è un elemento chiave delle strategie di branding. Uno dei settori più coinvolti è sicuramente il retail, che riesce a coinvolgere quattro (a volte cinque) sensi. Ad esempio, è stato studiato che trasmettere musica non famigliare al pubblico aumenta il tempo di permanenza nel negozio. Ma dove trovare della musica non famigliare di qualità?Ospiti della puntata:- Karin Zaghi, Associate Professor of Practice di Channel and Retail alla SDA Bocconi School of Management- Marco Rinaldo, president & founder di Rehegoo Music- Luca Rinaldo, CEO di Rehegoo Music ItaliaBibliografia- La storia di Brian Smith è tratta dal suo libro The Birth of a Brand, Beyond Words Publishing, 2014,  e dalle sue interviste per Inc Magazine.- Le parole di Brian Smith in cui canticchia Time sono tratte dal podcast The Art of Brand. - Karin Zaghi ha scritto diversi libri, tra cui Visual merchandising.

In Episode 508 of Daily Influence, Brian Smith dives into a topic that hits a nerve: the word “boss.” Why does it bother so many? Because being “the boss” often signals insecurity and a need for control rather than true leadership.

Whether you're leading a small team or an entire organization, this episode asks: Are you bossing people or building them?

Brian Smith is the Founder of UGG, the globally recognized sheepskin boots brand. Originally from Australia, he transitioned from a career in accounting to entrepreneurship after studying at the UCLA School of Management. Brian launched UGG Imports in 1978 with minimal capital and a bold vision to introduce sheepskin boots to the American market. Over the course of two decades, he built the brand into a cultural icon renowned for its comfort and quality — before eventually selling it to Deckers Outdoor Corporation. In this episode… Every entrepreneur dreams of turning their idea into a household name, but few consider the financial hurdles and missteps that can threaten even the most promising ventures. What do you do when your product starts to gain traction, but the business is financially drowning? Brian Smith, the founder of a now-iconic footwear brand, shared hard-won lessons on breaking into a resistant market. Drawing from his experience as a surfer and former accountant, Brian explained how deeply understanding your target audience and reflecting on their aspirations can transform marketing outcomes. His breakthrough came when he stopped using professional models and instead featured young surfers in authentic settings. He also cautioned against the dangers of “profitless prosperity,” where rapid sales growth outpaces financial planning, and stressed the importance of sound financial literacy and timing when scaling a product-based business. Tune in to this episode of the Smart Business Revolution Podcast as John Corcoran interviews Brian Smith, Founder of UGG, to discuss how he created an iconic footwear brand. Brian reveals how surf culture shaped UGG's early marketing, why selling a fast-growing business was necessary, and how he's mentoring modern entrepreneurs today. Listeners will learn about Brian's innovative marketing strategies and the critical role of resilience in business success.
