“Something that disruptors bring to the table is the personal relationship with the customer.” And Brand Hacks author Emmanuel Probst knows a thing or two about disruptors. With a background in academia and working with several Fortune 500 clients at Ipsos, he brings a consumer behavior focused mindset to the world of branding and marketing. We discussed all of this and more on this week’s episode of the On Brand podcast. About Emmanuel Probst Emmanuel Probst’s background combines over 15 years of market research and marketing experience with strong academic achievements. At Ipsos, Emmanuel supports numerous Fortune 500 companies by providing them with a full understanding of their customer’s journey. This encompasses brand awareness to purchase and recommendation, leading to greater insights on the consumer within it. His clients span across a wide range of industries, including consumer package goods, retail, financial services, advertising agencies, and media outlets. He’s also the author of the book Brand Hacks: How to Build Brands by Fulfilling the Human Quest for Meaning. Emmanuel also teaches Consumer Market Research at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA), and writes about consumer psychology for numerous publications. Emmanuel holds an MBA in Marketing from the University of Hull, United Kingdom and a Doctorate in Consumer Psychology from the University of Nottingham Trent, United Kingdom. Episode Highlights Cognitive dissonance when it comes to branding. As a fellow educator, Emmanuel remarked that the millennials that he teaches frequently note that they’re not “into brands.” And yet they use brands like Spotify constantly! Is branding different in an era where consumers don’t think brands matter? “It has to be less flashy,” Emmanuel reminds us. This made me think of a Steve Jobs quote I heard last week at MarketingProfs B2B Forum from keynote speaker Kara Swisher. Jobs had thought that marketing should be “quiet.” Emmanuel and I then discussed that Apple’s advertising and promotion has grown to be anything but quiet. Can you measure branding immediately? “Programmatic advertising creates the illusion that instant metrics are available.” It’s something you have to measure regularly over time—especially the emotional resonance with your customers. What brand has made Emmanuel smile recently? Emmanuel pointed us to a brand I’ve never heard of before — The Farmer’s Dog. “It provides meal plans for pet owners.” It promises real food for dogs that have been tested on humans first. That’s a welcome reversal! To learn more, connect with Emmanuel on LinkedIn or Instagram. As We Wrap … Did you hear something you liked on this episode or another?

“I believe in the power of data to change decision-making and culture. It’s all about finding the signal in the noise.” — Raviv Turner In this podcast session, I had the opportunity to speak with Raviv Turner, Co-Founder & CEO @CaliberMind.For those who may not be familiar with Raviv, he and his all-star team at CaliberMind have built a leading Customer Data Platform designed specifically for the B2B Revenue Marketer with one aim in mind — to be THE “single source of truth” for marketing and sales teams that finally gives them the "superpowers" they need to grow revenue faster, together. Raviv developed and mastered his data intelligence "superpowers" as a military intelligence officer and now, for the past decade, has been helping CMOs, and B2B marketers grow revenue using these honed data intelligence skills. In 2017, Raviv was selected as one of the ‘Top Tech Leaders to Watch’ by Inc. magazine and is also a contributor to Forbes Tech Council. He is also a sought-after speaker at marketing conferences on the topics of marketing analytics, data intelligence and marketing AI, including Dreamforce, MarTech Conference, and MarketingProfs B2B Forum. Despite all that Raviv does, he still finds time to ‘give back’ as both a personal advisor to CMOs on the topic of marketing technology and data analytics strategy to help improve their revenue accountability and customer-centricity skills - and as an angel investor and mentor at well-known startup accelerator @Techstars. Here are a few highlights from our discussion: 03:42 — How a former Israeli Intelligence Officer found himself in Boulder, Colorado running CaliberMind - a leading B2B Customer Data Platform for Revenue Marketers. 07:10 — 3 reasons why Boulder, Colorado has such a strong tech community and culture. 10:43 — Empathy: why it's a personality trait all good product managers must possess. 14:20 — #MarTechPorn: What it is and how it relates to CaliberMind’s #UnMarTech Manifesto (...and the correct approach to building your MarTech stack). 18:55 — Why CaliberMind is focused on building THE "single source of truth" (aka superpower) for B2B marketing and sales teams. 28:29 — How CaliberMind operationalizes revenue marketing at their own company (...and a CEO’s perspective on the obstacles B2B marketers face when trying to adopt revenue marketing.) 36:05 — "Data pukes" and the framework Raviv and his team use when building meaningful, actionable marketing and sales dashboard that drives real insights and business results.

Jason Miller, Group Manager of the Global Content and Social Media Marketing team at LinkedIn, joins Jeff for the second year in a row from MarketingProfs’ B2B Forum to discuss his move from the United States to London and how his outlook has changed on global marketing.Jason, a rock star marketer and author of Welcome to the Funnel: Proven Tactics to Turn Your Social and Content Marketing up to 11, and Jeff kick off this show with discussions around hair bands, 80s movies, the British invasion of music, and how all these influences shaped his views on global marketing. I want you to imagine an episode of VH1’s Behind the Music. The voiceover comes on with a photo montage of Jason Miller showcasing pictures of him as a photographer, his early years in the music industry, getting his start at Marketo, and working in the San Francisco office at LinkedIn. “From the outside, Jason had everything. A loving family. A career at the largest B2B social network. A side hustle taking photos of some of his favorite bands. But something was not right. Jason wanted more.” Cut away to this interview with Jason. “I felt I had one last shot to do something big.”That something big for Jason was selling a bunch of stuff and packing the rest for a move to London where he would lead up the Global Content Marketing Team. Talk about a huge change.Throughout this episode, we dive into some of the ways marketers can stop viewing their content as green field and global at the same time. Every culture, community, company, and person has a context that matters to them and seeing your content through their eyes is what real empathy requires at a global scale. If you’re a teenager looking for drive awareness for a cause, a dry goods supplier in Haiti, or a Polish bakery in the town square of Tomaszów Mazowiecki seeking to cater local events, you need content that will help you understand your audience and drive amazing results. Jason now has a mission to help these marketers and more understand what content and social media marketing is on a global scale.One of the most interesting statements Jason made for me took me out of my comfort zone and forced me to think. He stated he is not “creating content for EMEA, and localizing for the States.” What a mindset change from a global perspective. To create the content from an international context to you first, then localize it back to what is familiar will quickly show you how different context is between two countries. Team Challenge: I would like to challenge you and your marketing team to determine a market you feel you do not serve well and do whatever you need to get yourself in the mindset of a target customer in that space. Maybe do a phone interview asking contextual questions, visit a few locations if possible, and read a little bit of the current culture of whatever that segment is. Then write a piece specifically for them, maybe an 800-word how-to article. Then, create a revision of the content localized for your existing audience. I would love to hear about your experience from this challenge.We hope this show will help you think outside the box when it comes to an upcoming marketing effort your team has.If you liked this show and the others, I would encourage you to give us a review and a 5-star rating on iTunes.

Tish Millsap, Content Strategy and Demand Generation Consultant, joins the show at MarketingProfs’ B2B Forum to talk about Account-based Marketing (ABM), Demand Gen, and the intersection between sales and marketing.During this show, Tish and Jeff share some in-depth lessons they have learned over the years, to help marketing teams perform better and gain a seat at the table when it comes to corporate strategy. One of the first places Tish suggests marketing teams look at is the data. If you can’t attribute the information you are using to a source and verify that source is current, it might be time to start cleaning it up. Once you know the data is clean, can your efforts be amplified with the use of data. We’re not talking about filling in the first and last name in your Twitter or email automation. We are talking about context.With a background in technology, Tish has also found the agile approach to content planning and execution to be beneficial for marketing teams. Around the midpoint of this conversation, we pull the elements together and talk about the logistics of agile planning in a marketing context.We hope this show will help you think outside the box when it comes to an upcoming marketing effort your team has.If you liked this show and the others, I would encourage you to give us a review and a 5-star rating on iTunes.

It was really hard to name this episode. Andy Crestodina, Co-founder and Strategic Director of Orbit Media Studios, sat down with me at MarketingProfs’ B2B Forum to discuss just about every topic when it comes to digital marketing. We talk about the history of the Internet, his book Content Chemistry, how marketers should be using analytics, and many other topics. Andy also describes his experience keynoting Content Marketing World in September of 2016. I have a few favorite quotes from this podcast with Andy. One of them is “fear of public failure is a huge motivator.” When I think back to each stage of my journey into public presentations, I cannot think of a time that I was completely confident. There is always a comfort in the presentations you have given, but a fear of the next experiences as the audience gets bigger and the topics get deeper. Andy describes his experience of the change in audience size from 100s to 1000s at #CMWorld. At the core of this conversation is the need for analytics, not reports. “The real way to use analytics is a decision support tool.” I love this philosophy because many of us use our analytics and metrics of success and to get a gold star of achievement when we reach a number. In this episode, we both share examples of times we received some amazing numbers from traffic, but instead of improving our measurement, they added noise. If we look at the why behind the numbers, we will always find more areas of improvement and learn more about our audiences.This is definitely one of those shows I will listen to a few times to capture each area of the conversation we get to and I hope you do the same.If you liked this show and the others, I would encourage you to give us a review and a 5-star rating on iTunes.

Ann Handley sits down with us at MarketingProfs’ B2B Forum to discuss her latest book, Everybody Writes, and why slow marketing is a practice you should consider in 2017.I cannot thank Ann enough for the impact her content has had in my life. In fact, it is the perfect case study of how to market well to a person and have them become a part of your audience and your customer base. Listen to her considerations of the reader in advance, and how the book comes from a desire deep in her life that she had to get out. These massive pieces of content that are considered by some masterpieces don’t just form out of mid-air. During the interview, Ann described the how she used other author’s work as guides she used along the way, such as E.B. White’s, The Elements of Style. Later in the show, we discuss the idea of Slow Marketing. In this approach, you slow down your marketing efforts to make sure there is true value delivered. I love this concept and see it ushering in the conversations we will have as modern content marketing grows into the 2.0 stage of life. Concepts like agile marketing, account-based marketing, and video marketing, paired with ideas of a slower pace, allow for us to see the consumption patterns of an audience and determine the best cadence for the content they want. This podcast is a shorter show but is jammed packed with goodies. We will continue publishing the shows from B2B Forum on Mondays and Fridays until we January. I would love your thoughts and commentary on the share.
