POPULARITY
Morrissey, Taking Back Sunday, Alkaline Trio, Streetlight Manifesto…For dedicated fans, these are bands that bring back memories of checkered Vans shoes, studded belts, and paper wrist bands from each show.But some of them haven't toured in years.So to see them all on one festival poster 20 years after their heyday made fans think it was too good to be true. It wasn't, and it lived up to the hype.So in this episode, we're talking about all the good - and questionable - marketing that went into the When We Were Young Festival.With the help of our special guest, Head of Content Marketing at CoreWeave, Brooke Gocklin, we're talking about painting the picture, building a community of advocates, and delivering on the hype.About our guest, Brooke GocklinBrooke Gocklin is the Head of Content Marketing at CoreWeave.

Show your audience what doing business with you would look like. When they're able to visualize the tangible benefits of becoming a customer, it makes it that much easier for them to sign on the dotted line. For the When We Were Young Festival, the organizers made a poster with album covers of all of the bands who would be performing. Ian says, “[It's] brilliant, right? You have to show people what it would look like. I have found over the years that if you can mock something up, it's so much easier, right? It's much harder to get an idea of something in a Google doc.” So paint the picture. Mock up an idea of what your product looks like for your audience.Build a community of advocates. Bands like Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance and Taking Back Sunday have created communities of fiercely loyal fans. Brooke says, “And so that means that when you see all of these bands coming together, the reaction is, is this even real? But two, it gives you a sense of like, ‘Oh my gosh, I have to be there. And I have to tell my friends about this.' And so I think that for B2B marketers, you know, really leveraging customer advocates or people who are just really excited about your product or service to amplify your message builds trust in a wider audience. So choose customers who love you, who love your product, who love your service and leverage them to tell others about you.”Deliver on the hype. You can tease about a product or service as much as you want, as long as it delivers what it promises. Brooke says, “When We Were Young created a massive buzz with a huge lineup. They also did a lot of teasers, but most importantly, they really backed it up with a well organized incredible event. Credibility is so important. So you can't just hype something up whether that's your product or service. And not have it live up to expectations. So as marketers, I think it's really crucial when you're thinking about B2B, to build trust and credibility from the get go. So whether that means that you're creating content that is factually accurate and all of the products and features, functionalities live up to what you're selling them as. That is important, right? So you need to establish your brand as a go-to resource, but you do that by being credible.”Quotes*”As far as how I think about content, it's really like connective tissue. I think it's at the core and at the center of a brand story. So, you need content to be able to bring people into the funnel. You need content as they're exploring, getting to know you. You need content when they're at that purchasing stage, or even after they become a customer, you still need them to engage with you. And you need to be putting out ideas that provoke some sort of thought and that's valuable to them.”*”Really good content marketing is about creating value for your audience and really helping them solve their problems. So my approach has always been: start with the audience. What do they care about? What are their challenges? And then craft content that speaks directly to those needs. I think that that is a key differentiator when it comes to content strategy.”Time Stamps[0:55] Meet Brooke Gocklin, Head of Content Marketing at CoreWeave[3:10] When We Were Young Festival's Unique Marketing Tactics[8:11] Nostalgia and Community Building[19:39] Marketing Lessons for B2B[22:31] The Power of Loyal Fan Bases[23:14] Leveraging Customer Advocates in B2B Marketing[24:09] Building Online Communities[26:54] Activating a Community[29:43] Delivering on the Hype[31:40] Content Strategy and Its Importance[34:11] Successful Content Campaigns[37:16] Measuring Content ROI[39:38] Exciting New Projects at CoreWeave[41:06] Advice for New Heads of ContentLinksConnect with Brooke on LinkedInLearn more about CoreWeaveAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

TITLE:Getting to Exceptional. (ft. Gary Forman. | Freelance Creative Director and Speechwriter)OPENING QUOTE:“I have to say because it's one of the more interesting things I found in this work. I've seen a direct correlation between how vulnerable people are willing to make themselves and how successful they are. The people who are closed and live in fear, I don't do as well with them, and they don't do as well. Those folks that come with an open mind, and it's like let it hang out. Those are the folks I see rising quickly, and those are the folks that are willing to take as much help as I can give. That is such a rewarding experience.”- Gary FormanSUMMARY:A freelance creative director, speechwriter, and executive coach with more than 30 years of experience in delivering successful events to some of the world's leading pharmaceutical and technology companies, Gary Forman, is a well-rounded resource for meeting professionals looking for help in bringing their next event to an exceptional level.As Gary reasons… as long as you're vulnerable, smart, well-meaning, motivated, and committed to bringing in creative experts who may do things differently, you'll get there.Gary also chats about establishing trust, and with that as a baseline, he addresses how enhanced content can be delivered. He talks about how presenters can work the stage for maximum impact and about adding humor to events. He believes that laughter and positive energy breed connections. And as a self-proclaimed energy junkie, Gary also addresses the pros of always having seasoned stage managers in place to jump around and through hoops to ensure there are no energy-killing moments in any part of a production. All of it is in line, of course, with delivering No More Bad Events.GUEST BIO:A creative director, speechwriter, and speaker coach, Gary has worked on hundreds of events over the last 30 years, primarily in the tech and pharma industries.

Add to that the effect of technology on how people meet and match, the growing problem of loneliness, and changing norms of dating, family, sex, marriage, work, and life. - We invite you to subscribe to our Podcast and share it with others! -To support this Podcast visit us on Patreon -To find out more about us visit: www.artistshouseinternational.com -Instagram: @artistshouseinternational -Twitter: @artistshouseint -Facebook: @artistshouseinternational

I talk with British illustrator and animator Dan Woodger about how he got his work seen, how he learned to protect himself and his art through contracts and agents and how he pushes himself to keep learning and getting better at his craft. Dan Woodger (IG;Web;Twitter) is a freelance illustrator and animator based in Kingston, UK. You might be familiar with Dan’s signature bubbly and joyful characters, anthropomorphised fruits and Where’s Waldo?-esque crowd scenes. Dan has drawn his unique characters for brands like McDonald's, Samsung, Apple and Netflix. Dan also occasionally contributes editorial illustrations to publications like The New York Times, GQ and The Sunday Times. I reached out to Dan wanting to learn more about how he made a name for himself and honed his unique style--but we talk about so much good stuff beyond that. I learn how Dan used a cheap inkjet printer to create promotional material that got him seen by people at It’s Nice That, Nike and Wieden + Kennedy. We talk about failures, downturns and what it takes to find freelance work even when you don’t have a large audience or an extensive list of contacts. Dan also explains why he thinks his style and skills appeal to big brands and companies, how he copes with failure and how he learned the importance of having a good contract and agent to protect himself and his art. We also talk about Dan’s adventures in Asia, how he became a famous illustrator in Japan and eventually got asked to be a guest of honor at the Nuit Blanche festival in Taipei.

It’s funny how we begin creating at a young age, simply for pleasure. Wax crayons, felt-tip pens, glitter-glue, pencil-crayons, all tools that we use to depict something that makes us happy or interests us in some way. Liam Gall is a 10 year old who freelances as an artist, illustrator and cartoonist at primary school. The first time I tried to make any money from my creative skills came when I was 14 years old. My friend convinced me that there was money to be made by sketching David Beckham with no clothes on. I panicked and destroyed the masterpiece before we ever found out whether there was indeed anyone willing to pay for such mischief. Many of us abandon the innocent enjoyment of making something from nothing when adult life starts to come into play. Parental pressure, grades in education, living costs, self-imposed ideals and trends are just a few of the factors, but I wanted to talk to Liam to see how he felt about his creative talent and how going into business at such a young age had happened. We discuss the lack of tonal range in felt-tip pens, how it feels to know your work is on a girl in your class’s bedroom wall, the difficulties in drawing human beings instead of cartoons, the patience and practice required to develop your skills and what role Disney and WWE’s John Cena play in all of this.
