Podcasts about luxury brands

For this episode, Ashley sits down with Malinda Sanna to discuss luxury research, the psychology of high-spending women, the shift from status to agency, and why the next frontier of luxury might be less about advertising and more about listening.Luxury consumers are full of contradictions. A woman might put Hermès or Byredo in the guest bathroom, use Dove herself, and still have the means to buy almost anything. The why behind that behaviour is where the insight lives.The new luxury buyer wants agency. She is less defined by the male gaze or visible logos, and more focused on what makes her feel good, cared for, informed and in control.Transparency is becoming part of desire. Today's luxury client wants to know what sits behind the velvet curtain: leadership, values, sustainability, culture and how the business actually behaves.VICs do not just want dinners anymore. These women work, lead, host, donate, travel and buy. To impress them, luxury brands need more creativity, more access and more meaningful forms of engagement.The real value of research is not confirmation. Malinda does not want a client to say, “That confirms what we already knew.” She wants them to say, “We never thought of it that way.”

In this episode of OFFBounds, Paula Macaggi goes to Singapore for NRF APAC 2026 and sits down with Delphine Dultzin, CEO and Co-Founder of OnTheList, to explore a retail challenge that rarely gets discussed: what happens to the products brands don't sell. What began as a side project in Hong Kong has grown into a business operating across 11 markets, helping luxury and premium brands transform excess inventory into curated shopping events that create value for both consumers and brands. Delphine shares how OnTheList built trust with some of the world's leading brands while creating a model that combines profitability, customer experience, and sustainability.The conversation also dives into the realities of building and scaling a company across Asia and the Middle East. Delphine reflects on launching without a playbook, learning through trial and error, navigating cultural differences across markets, and why understanding local consumers matters more than replicating a formula. From the future of inventory management and AI-driven forecasting to entrepreneurship, resilience, and retail innovation, this episode offers valuable lessons for anyone interested in the evolving world of commerce.

In this Buying & Beyond, we sit down with Elena, founder of Elena London, a luxury home fragrance brand she built from scratch during lockdown after becoming frustrated with reed diffusers that seemed to lose their scent within days. What started as a search for a better product quickly evolved into a thriving business, built alongside a full-time career and driven by a commitment to quality, craftsmanship and customer experience.Elena shares her entrepreneurial journey, from an early venture importing Australian salt to discovering her passion for home fragrance and creating hand-poured products made in small batches. We discuss the realities of building a product-based business, the meticulous process behind developing her fragrances, and why she refuses to compromise on quality, even when it comes to pricing. We also talk about the viral social media post that saw messages arrive from around the world, being shortlisted for the UK Start-Up Awards Consumer Product Start-Up of the Year, and her exciting plans for wholesale growth and a new candle collection.Three Key Takeaways1. Listen to your customers, not just your own taste. Some of Elena London's most successful products, including refill pouches and car diffusers, came directly from customer requests. Elena believes the best product development starts with understanding the problems your customers are trying to solve and creating solutions that genuinely fit their needs.2. Quality over quantity builds loyalty that lasts. In a market full of low-cost alternatives, Elena has built her brand around exceptional product performance. Her reed diffusers can last up to six months or more, creating a level of trust that turns customers into advocates and drives repeat purchases.3. Stay in your lane — your brand is your brand. From navigating imposter syndrome to growing alongside larger competitors, Elena's approach is simple: focus on your own values, stay true to your vision and avoid getting distracted by what everyone else is doing. Authenticity and consistency are what build long-term brands.Find out more about Elena London and follow Elena's journey through her website and social channels. https://elenaldn.com/ @elenalondon_Support the showIf you've liked this episode please rate, follow, subscribe and share :) - and if you already have, thank you!

When Tanya Golesic took the helm of Mackage in July 2021, she inherited a Canadian brand with extraordinary product and almost no story. "The minute you put the product on, you wouldn't want to take the product off," Golesic tells Ken. "But it was lacking a brand story. It was lacking storytelling." Four years and a record-breaking 2025 later, the former Jimmy Choo president has transformed a down-outerwear specialist into a global luxury lifestyle brand—stretching price points to $3,500, balancing the men's-women's split, and betting on the Croatia national team at the World Cup.

This is a conversation about craftsmanship, curation, building inside a private-equity-backed startup, and why fashion has more in common with sports than most people think.In this episode you'll learn:How Tanya went from a Croatian immigrant family in Canada to leadership at Ralph Lauren, Marc Jacobs, LVMH, Canada Goose, and Jimmy ChooWhy she turned down Mackage the first time—and how a "six-and-a-half-year interview" led her to the CEO roleThe "aesthetics that protect" brand ethos: why Mackage product must be fashionable, functional, and technical all at onceHow Mackage shifted from 50% heavyweight down to a 12-month lifestyle business spanning leather, cashmere, ready-to-wear, and rainwearWhy 2025 was a record year with double-digit growth—and how launching a real spring collection unlocked itThe logo strategy: segmenting between a "quiet luxury" customer and a streetwear customer with flexible brandingHow she stretched price points from $850–$1,200 up to $3,500 without raising prices across the boardThe wholesale discipline: applying the 80/20 rule and pulling back doors to focus on top-tier accountsMackage's global retail expansion across Canada, the US, Paris, Japan, China, and Korea—and when to use partners vs. going in-houseDon't forget to subscribe to The Retail Pilot podcast for more conversations with retail industry leaders and visionaries shaping the future of commerce.If you missed our last episode, where Pete Nordstrom unpacks the eight-year journey to go private, the strategic partnership with Liverpool that made it possible, and what's actually changed since May 2025, be sure to tune in.Connect with Ken:-Follow Ken Pilot Ventures on LinkedIn, Instagram, and YouTube. Hosted on Ausha.

The Founderz Lounge Episode #77 with Don Varady and Steve Bon.Don and Steve are back with another round of Business & Bullsh*t, where real entrepreneurs break down what brands are doing right, what they are doing wrong, and what is changing in culture.This episode kicks off with the business behind GORUCK and how a founder built a massive brand around something most companies try to avoid: pain. Instead of selling convenience, the company built a loyal following around challenge, community, and shared suffering.From there, the conversation shifts into the rise of the experience economy and why consumers increasingly care more about how something makes them feel than what they actually buy. Don and Steve explore why atmosphere can matter more than the product itself, how travel and hospitality brands are leaning into customized experiences, and why human connection still matters in a digital world.They also dive into the strange world of luxury branding, where status and perception can sometimes matter more than the product itself.They close out with Hot Takes on AI, restaurant kiosks, and technology replacing human interaction, plus a Fast Five covering favorite snacks, nostalgia products, the Winter Olympics, and unexpected hotel pet peeves.Tune in to hear more.Timestamps:[00:00] Trailer[00:43] Founderz RoundUp[01:11] GORUCK and the Business of Shared Suffering[03:07] Why Fitness Got Easier[04:33] The Experience Economy and Emotional Marketing[07:59] Experiences Worth Paying For[09:24] Random Bullsh*t[09:52] “I'll Give You Back Your Time” Rant[11:19] Luxury Brands, Status, and Pricing Absurdity[14:15] Founderz Hot Takes[14:33] AI, Kiosks, and Broken Business Systems[20:04] Founderz Fast Five[27:45] OutroKey Takeaways:  • Instead of selling easy fitness, he sold shared suffering. ~Don Varady• “It isn't about being seen. It's about being felt.” ~Steve Bon• More people than ever are buying a memorable moment over a product or service. ~Steve Bon• The lead into a brand today is how it will make someone feel, not just what it sells. ~Steve Bon• “They're not selling products anymore. They're selling inside jokes for rich people.” ~Don Varady• The flex is not quality anymore. The flex is being able to waste money on something others cannot. ~Don Varady• Businesses should clean up their systems before adopting new technology. ~Steve BonConnect with Don and Steve…Don Varady:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/don.varady/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/donvarady/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/don-varady-450896145 Steve Bon:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephenbon Instagram: https://instagram.com/stevebon8 Tune in to every episode on your favorite platform: Website: https://www.thefounderzlounge.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheFounderzLounge Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0Nurr4XjBE747qJ9Zjth0G Apple Music: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-founderz-lounge/id1461825349 The Founderz Lounge is Powered By:Clean Eatz:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CleanEatzLife/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cleaneatzlife/ Website: https://cleaneatz.com/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJRGrE-Xv4IMW_DbxSOTGGA Bon's Eye Marketing:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bonseyemarketing Instagram: https://www.linkedin.com/company/bon's-eye-marketing/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/bon's-eye-marketing/ Website: https://bonseyeonline.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@bonseyemarketing9477

On February 1, President Trump announced that The Kennedy Center would close for two years for “Construction, Revitalization, and Complete Rebuilding” (capitalization sic). Washington Post art and architecture critic Philip Kennicott sees this as an existential threat to the Center. And: New York Times fashion critic Vanessa Friedman thinks everyone has been misunderstanding the Melania documentary from the get go. It’s less an actual movie, she says, and more the launch of the Melania luxury brand. And finally: Don Glickman was a design professor. He had retired in the late 1990s, and he died last year at 94. And then some people started getting postcards from him — charming, amusing, perfectly Glickmanian postcards.

A jeweler launching his own Prosecco sounds unexpected, until you hear how celebration sits at the heart of both. We sit down with Ben from Blakeman's to trace the path from showroom sparkle to $24 bubbles on local shelves, and why that choice wasn't about chasing prestige but designing for real moments people share. From the first pop to the final sip, he shows how taste, value, and presentation combine into a brand experience that feels premium without feeling out of reach.We dig into the details that make a difference: thicker, hand‑carved Italian glass that telegraphs quality at a glance, and a simple chill ritual that ensures the pour matches the promise. Ben walks through the distribution map, Bentonville's Guess Who, Angkor off Pleasant Grove, Liquor World in Fayetteville, plus Bordinos, Pinnacle Country Club, and Ermilio's, to keep discovery close to where celebrations already happen. The strategy is intentional and local, giving Northwest Arkansas a sparkling option with the right balance of price and pride.Then comes the masterclass in branding: the purple bag. Instead of leaning into industry blues or neutral black, Blakeman's chose a distinctive purple palette that turned packaging into anticipation. Families now look for the purple bag under the tree, on birthdays, and during Valentine's Day, proof that when service, product, and presentation align, a simple color becomes a promise of joy. We share personal stories, a holiday prank with a surprise purple box, and the small traditions that turn customers into communities. If you care about brand building, retail strategy, or the psychology of gifting, you'll find practical insight and a few smile‑worthy moments all the way through.Enjoy the conversation, share it with a friend who loves great branding and better bubbles, and don't forget to follow, rate, and leave a quick review so more people can discover the show.

Episode 277 of The Smart Agents Podcast features a dynamic conversation with Amelia Turbyfill, one of Montana's leading luxury real estate advisors serving the Bozeman, Big Sky, and Park City resort markets. With over $60 million in career transactions and a background in marketing, Amelia has built a boutique luxury brand rooted in precision, storytelling, and a deep understanding of lifestyle-driven buying decisions. As a Northwest Regional Director of REAL Luxury and a Top 100 Realtor in 2024, she has advised on multi-million-dollar transactions and played a key role in shaping high-end development and marketing across resort markets.In this episode, Amelia shares how her marketing foundation became a competitive advantage in real estate, why social media and content creation are now essential tools for modern agents, and how selling luxury homes requires far more than listing features and price points. She explains how understanding a client's lifestyle goals, investing in professional content, and staying consistent with marketing efforts leads to warmer leads, deeper trust, and long-term referral business—especially in second-home and resort markets.In this conversation, Amelia breaks down:✅ How lifestyle storytelling drives results in luxury and resort real estate✅ Why consistency matters more than chasing every new marketing tactic✅ How to use social media and video to attract high-net-worth clients✅ The unique challenges and opportunities of second-home markets✅ Why investing in quality marketing assets pays off over timeConnect With Amelia

With a focus on monetization expertise and authority, Kathryn works with clients to elevate their brands and expand their vision of possibilities. Her unique approach emphasizes mastery, rarity, and transformative experiences, enabling her clients to connect deeply with high-end buyers. In this episode, Mark Stiving sits down with Kathryn Porritt to explore the intricacies of selling luxury goods. They discuss the differences between luxury and premium buyers, the importance of creating an expanded vision of possibilities, and how to effectively communicate value in high-end markets.    Why You Have to Check Out This Episode: Learn why luxury buyers don't negotiate and how expanding a buyer's future vision removes price from the conversation entirely. Understand the difference between premium and luxury pricing, and why treating them the same quietly caps your revenue. Discover how elite sellers confidently say bold prices without flinching, discounting, or overselling.   "Expand a vision of possibility for people—show them what they can't see for themselves. When you focus on that, pricing becomes easy."  – Kathryn Porritt   Topics Covered: 01:30 – What Luxury Buyers Actually Buy. Why true luxury customers aren't purchasing features or value props—they're buying rarity, mastery, and first-of-its-kind experiences. 05:40 – Premium vs. Luxury: The Line Most Sellers Miss. How premium buyers still compare and negotiate—while luxury buyers step outside price entirely. 08:45 – The "Expanded Vision of Possibility" Framework. Why the most powerful pricing conversations anchor buyers in a future they didn't know was available. 12:30 – When Budgets Grow (Even in Corporations). How elite sellers expand scope and impact—causing "fixed" corporate budgets to quietly increase. 16:10 – Confidence, Control, and Saying the Number. Why the price you can say without hesitation determines whether the buyer trusts you. 19:40 – Intuition vs. Calculators in Luxury Pricing. How elite experts balance cost, margins, and intuition when there is no reference price. 23:20 – Why This Isn't Just for Luxury Brands. Mark connects the dots: this is exactly how every B2B seller should be selling value. 26:40 – One Pricing Principle That Changes Everything. Kathryn's closing advice—and why expanding possibilities is the fastest path to higher prices.   Key Takeaways: "People at this level, people who buy luxury, like true luxury buyers, they're looking for something that's not necessarily about the value." – Kathryn Porritt "That expanded vision of possibility is the difference. And like I said, that's when pricing becomes almost obsolete in the conversation." – Kathryn Porritt "For a luxury buyer, it's not about the budget." – Kathryn Porritt   People & Resources Mentioned: Iconic Empires – Kathryn's firm helping elite experts position, monetize, and sell at the highest levels. Jeff Bezos – Referenced as an example of true luxury buying behavior where budget is irrelevant Coca-Cola - Mentioned as a corporate example in the context of budget discussions for events.

In 2025, Golden Goose, the Italian brand known for its handcrafted, distressed sneakers, was at a crossroads. CEO Silvio Campara had grown the label from a cult favorite into a $650 million global force, but sustaining that growth raised tough questions: Should the company double down on sneakers, expand into ready-to-wear and accessories, or push into emerging international markets? Harvard Business School Professor Juan Alcacer and entrepreneur Alexandre Daillance co-wrote the case “Golden Goose: Reshaping Luxury.” They join host Brian Kenny to explore how the brand has upended traditional fashion norms by embracing imperfection, inviting co-creation, and redefining what it means to scale in the luxury world.

He didn't build a luxury brand by doing everything. He built it by doing one thing exceptionally well — consistently. In this episode of The Root of All Success, Jason Duncan sits down with Larry Walshe, founder of This Is Beyond, one of the world's most respected luxury event and design houses. Larry's journey began with £700 and a dining room table, and today his work spans Royal households, global luxury brands, and A-list clients. This conversation goes beyond aesthetics and into the real foundations of sustainable success. Larry shares: • Why focus is the true advantage in luxury and business • How consistency beats talent over the long term • The systems behind scaling a creative business without burnout • Why staying in your lane creates both freedom and profitability • What entrepreneurs misunderstand about “doing more” If you're a founder, creative, or entrepreneur trying to scale without losing your edge — this episode will change how you think about growth, discipline, and freedom.

Today, I'm sitting down with Larry Walshe, founder of Larry Walshe Studios, a global event design firm producing large-scale, luxury weddings and private events for ultra-high-net-worth families, celebrities, and royal households. While Larry's roots are in floristry, his work goes far beyond flowers. His studio designs fully customized experiences—shaping the creative vision, transforming spaces, and defining how guests experience an event—while bringing together specialized artisans from around the world to execute complex, high-stakes productions. In this episode, Larry breaks down what it actually takes to build and protect a premium brand at the top end of the market, how he orchestrates massive productions with a small team, and why learning to say no early was essential to attracting the right clients and scaling without lowering the bar. If you're building a service business or premium brand and want a clearer sense of what it takes to operate at the highest level, this conversation offers a grounded look at how that kind of work actually gets done.   Key Takeaways 00:00 Intro 00:55 Why Saying No Builds a Luxury Brand 03:28 Don't Chase Revenue That Dilutes Your Brand 07:08 Consistency Is the Real Competitive Edge 08:20 Why High-End Clients Pay 10X More 13:07 Defining the Client You Actually Want 17:24 How to Shift Into a Higher-Paying Client Category 19:37 Inside Multimillion-Dollar Events 22:10 Running Global Operations With a Small Team 26:23 Becoming the Creative Director, Not the Doer 33:01 Managing Clients Who Want the Wrong Thing 35:03 The Sales Approach That Works at the Top End 40:02 When to Walk Away From Work 45:04 Handling Last-Second Client Demands 52:00 The Non-Negotiable's of Elite Client Work 57:15 Larry's Advice for Founders Moving Upmarket     Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/kmYqmgFjDIM     Let's Connect: Website | Instagram | YouTube | TikTok | Twitter | Facebook
