"Stop being Switzerland!” This could sound like vague advice but it's so important today. Translated it means that your brand can’t be neutral anymore. There’s so much noise you have to stand out. To help, marketers and serial co-authors Ekaterina Walter and Jessica Gioglio have penned the new book The Laws of Brand Storytelling, which launches this week. Both joined me on the On Brand podcast to discuss. About Ekaterina Walter and Jessica Gioglio Ekaterina Walter is a globally recognized business and marketing innovator, international speaker, and author of the Wall Street Journal bestseller Think Like Zuck and coauthor of The Power of Visual Storytelling. After pioneering social media and digital strategies for Fortune 500 brands such as Intel and Accenture, she cofounded a start-up that was acquired by Sprinklr, a customer experience management platform, where she served as Global Evangelist. She now helps global organizations build customer-centric digital transformation strategies.

She’s been consistently recognized by the industry and her peers for her innovative thinking: she was number three on Forbes’s World’s Top 40 Social Marketing Talent, and Fortune magazine included her on the list of the most impactful business people on social media, alongside Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, Arianna Huffington, Warren Buffet, and others. When Ekaterina is not writing about digital and business innovation, she and her nine-year-old daughter coauthor children’s books. The first of a planned series, Amber and Sapphire: The Magic Spell, was published in 2017. Jessica Gioglio is a recognized digital and social business strategist and the coauthor of The Power of Visual Storytelling.

Jessica’s thought leadership and industry commentary has been featured on CNBC, USA Today, PR Week, ComputerWorld, Chief Marketer, and more. Episode Highlights How is brand storytelling different? Ekaterina kicked off the show by reminding us that we need a new definition. “When people hear ‘storytelling’ they assume you mean marketing. Or content. Content was really storytelling 1.0. It’s not just for marketing anymore because your brand is built by what other people say.” Stop being Switzerland. Citing new data from Sprout Social, Jessica encouraged brands to take a stand. “You actually have more to lose by saying nothing. Two thirds want brands to take a public stance on issues they care about.” How do you embrace taking a stand? “You have to align advocacy with authenticity. Everyone has brand style guides for what to do visually. They don’t always have guidelines around values.” Who’s doing this really well? Ekaterina and Jessica pointed us to GE who’s focusing on 50/50 representation of females in STEM roles by 2020. We also discussed Nike and Honeymade with some good reminders on how to launch and execute campaigns like this. What brands have made Ekaterina and Jessica smile recently? Ekaterina told a story about a funny cease and desist from Bud Light while Jessica used Land Rover to reinforce the power of brand storytelling.

Wise Wednesdays - well aren't I wise every day? Some days more than others. WW is about sharing other people's wise words. This podcast is about the Power of Visual Storytelling by Ekaterina Walter and Jessica Gioglio. I can guarantee you I did NOT pronounce Jessica's last name correctly but points for trying. This is a great book for any business owner who needs to know more about how to share their business' story and the best way to do it. I also partly throw communication consultants under the bus by mentioning you might want to educate yourself before allowing someone you don't know to wield the pen or keyboard on behalf of your business. And yes - I'm a communications consultant ...
This episode of Jay Today comes to you from the Social Fresh conference (http://socialfresh.com). Laurie Meacham of Jetblue spoke at the conference about her experiences leading social media for the popular airline. She told an interesting story about a tweet that referenced the old Oregon Trail game (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Oregon_Trail_(computer_game)). Instead of saying a generic "thank you," Jetblue came back with a fun and relevant reply that truly impressed their passenger (https://twitter.com/JetBlue/status/258938937698054145). Changing the way we interact and respond to the people who are watching us gives us a chance to make a lifelong customer (or personal friend).
