When your audience thinks they already know your story, the boldest brands flip the script and earn their attention in the process. That's exactly what happens in Wicked, the smash-hit film adaptation that reimagines one of pop culture's most iconic villains. In this episode, we explore the marketing lessons behind it with special guest Allison MacLeod, Chief Marketing Officer & GM of US Education at Flywire.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from reframing brand narratives, building fan-level community, and executing with bold, high-stakes detail that actually gets noticed.About our guest, Allison MacleodAllison Macleod currently serves as Chief Marketing Officer & Head of US Education at Flywire (Nasdaq: FLYW), a global payments enablement & software company. At Flywire, Allison leads global marketing and revenue operations, & US Education sales, relationship management & pre-sales. She played a key role in guiding Flywire to a successful IPO in May 2021.Allison brings nearly 20 years of experience with a background spanning marketing and revenue-focused roles. Prior to Flywire, she spent seven years at Rapid7 (Nasdaq: RPD), where she played a pivotal role in building and scaling demand generation, business development, and analytics. Before that, she held various digital and field-based positions at Forrester, including launching the marketing function in EMEA.Outside of work, Allison sits on the Board of Trustees of the Massachusetts Technology Leadership Council and serves as a strategic advisor to early-stage companies through F-Prime & Underscore VC.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Wicked:Reframe what they think they know. Wicked works because it flips a legacy story on its head. The same power lies in brand repositioning. “How do you really reframe what people think they know about you and your brand,” Allison says. Whether it's entering new markets or expanding product lines, your biggest unlock might come from telling your old story in a completely new way.Community is your flywheel. Wicked isn't just a show, it's a movement. Audiences don't just watch it, they live it. That level of advocacy isn't accidental. “How do you really cultivate that community, whether that's your clients, the advocacy, and make people… feel that deep passion for what you do,” Allison asks. In B2B, fandom might look like retention, referrals, or customer-led storytelling, but it starts with emotional connection.Be bold and unforgettable. Every production choice in Wicked is a masterclass in attention to detail. From the live vocals to the stunts, they took creative risks that resonated. “How do you be bold and unforgettable,” Allison says. The safest move in saturated categories? Standing out.Quote“I think that's sort of the lesson and the beauty in this, taking something that everyone already thought they knew, and they thought they knew the story… and completely reframing it. And I think that's where you just think of us as businesses, us as consumers… there's so much clutter. So the brands that stick out and do things differently, and even if it is trying the same channel but in a different way, there's so much power in that."Time Stamps[0:55] Meet Allison MacLeod, Chief Marketing Officer & GM of US Education at Flywire[01:05] Why Wicked?[02:29] The Role of CMO at Flywire[04:00] Breaking Down of Wicked[09:22] B2B Marketing Takeaways from Wicked[21:54] The Appeal of Villains and Taking Risks[23:37] The Power of Visual Design in Branding[24:54] Marketing Strategies for Global Brands[29:26] Flywire's Unique Differentiation Approach[40:03] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Allison on LinkedInLearn more about FlywireAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

When timeless advertising principles meet today's AI-saturated landscape, something surprising happens: the old rules still work.Especially when we're talking about the father of advertising himself, David Ogilvy. In this episode, we dive into his iconic book, Ogilvy on Advertising, with special guest Eric Williamson, CMO at CallMiner.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from Ogilvy's approach: why specificity beats slogans, how research powers emotional storytelling, and why writing for humans is the real differentiator.About our guest, Eric WilliamsonAs CallMiner's Chief Marketing Officer, Eric oversees all global marketing functions from brand and events to demand generation. Eric's marketing team works very closely with channel and sales to drive pipeline and CallMiner's explosive growth. Eric has over 20 years of experience in both technology and consumer products marketing from both the vendor and agency side. Before joining CallMiner, Eric was VP Brand & Digital Marketing at Acquia — an open DXP platform built around Drupal — where he led brand, creative services, webops, editorial, and demand generation. Prior to Acquia, Eric was on the agency side of marketing working as SVP Digital & Social at MullenLowe, and before that as VP Digital Strategy at The Martin Agency. During his career Eric has worked with a variety of B2C and B2B brands including Google, Microsoft, Intel, GEICO, Walmart, P&G, Pizza Hut, Acura, Royal Caribbean, and Hyatt. He earned his undergraduate degree from Texas A&M University, and an MBA from The University of Texas at Dallas.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Ogilvy on Advertising:Start with the line, not the logo. Great B2B brands don't start with visuals, they start with voice. The sharpest creative begins on the page, not the mood board. “Copy first, research first, copy second, then worry about the visuals,” Eric says. In other words: write the line that earns attention before you pick the font.Write for humans. Most B2B copy dies in a sea of jargon. What buyers actually want is to feel seen. “It's really easy to fall into a place for a technology company to talk about your tech, talk about your features… and there's nothing emotional about that,” Eric says. The fix is to start by writing for humans. Emotion isn't a nice-to-have, it's your edge.Don't guess, ask. You don't need personas when you have real people. The best insights come from your customers, not your whiteboard. Eric says, “Just go talk to them…Why do they keep staying with you? What sort of thing that they worry about at night does this help solve for them?” The answers aren't in your funnel.

Keywords podcasting, marketing, entrepreneurship, Frugalpreneur, podcast growth, networking, podcasting community, podcast marketing agency, podcasting tips, podcast success Summary In this engaging conversation, the hosts discuss the intricacies of podcast marketing, the importance of building relationships within the podcasting community, and the journey of the Frugalpreneur podcast. They explore the challenges faced by podcasters, the significance of investing in quality equipment and networking opportunities, and the value of sharing personal stories and failures. The discussion highlights the supportive nature of the podcasting industry and the potential for growth and collaboration among podcasters. Sarah talks about podcast marketing, and the things that podcasters typically get wrong. She explains that simply sharing the podcast on social media is not enough, and that there are other ways to reach a podcast audience, such as paid ads, collaborations, and podcast guesting. She also shares her own experience with starting her podcast, The Frugalpreneur, and how it unexpectedly became a top 200 podcast in the entrepreneurship category. Sarah emphasizes the importance of enjoying the process and not being obsessed with rankings They discuss the impact of being in the Apple Podcast essentials list, and how it can increase visibility and listenership. Sarah shares her checklist for creating eye-catching cover art, such as bold colors and a focused design that stands out while scrolling through podcast apps. They also talk about the power of relationships and credibility that come with having a successful podcast. They brainstorm ways to further use the podcast to market the Frugalpreneur brand and services, including creating a mini-series and potentially getting into the New Forget budgeting strategy. The guest, Sarah, is from the Podcast Marketing Agency, and she talks about her journey in the podcast industry and how she helps podcasters market and grow their shows. She discusses the importance of networking and building relationships in the industry, as well as investing in conferences and high-quality equipment. Sarah also talks about the collaboration vs. competition mentality in the podcast industry and how that can help podcasters grow. Takeaways Podcasters often underestimate the importance of marketing beyond social media. Paid advertising in podcast directories can yield better results than social media alone. Networking at podcast conferences is invaluable for building relationships and growing your podcast. The Frugalpreneur podcast started as a marketing tool for a book but became a successful venture on its own. The podcasting community is generally supportive and collaborative rather than competitive. Cover art and podcast titles play a crucial role in attracting listeners. Investing in quality equipment, like a good microphone, is essential for podcast success. Sharing personal stories and failures can create deeper connections with listeners. Creating a mini-series can be a great way to explore new topics without committing to a full podcast. The journey of podcasting can lead to unexpected opportunities and growth.

Episode Summary: In this insightful episode of the Simplified Functional Medicine podcast, Dr. Chad Woolner and Dr. Andrew Wells reveal the tangible blueprint for establishing a successful virtual practice. Building off their previous discussion where they debunked myths about virtual practices, this session dives deep into the tactical side, offering a four-step strategy that has liberated many from the constraints of traditional practices. This episode is particularly beneficial for practitioners looking to transition into the virtual healthcare space without getting bogged down by technology overload or certifications. The discussion begins by emphasizing the importance of leveraging existing audiences when transitioning to a virtual practice. Drs. Woolner and Wells provide expert strategies for creating a seamless integration between in-person and virtual consultations. They detail a streamlined process involving audience traffic, patient education, compelling offer crafting, and long-term marketing strategies. These elements form the backbone of a thriving virtual practice that can operate profitably and sustainably. Listeners will gain insights into the nuances of these steps and will be presented with actionable advice to make the leap into virtual healthcare delivery confidently. Key Takeaways: Transforming a brick-and-mortar practice into a virtual practice involves a strategic four-step approach: increasing audience traffic, patient education and enrollment, crafting irresistible offers, and establishing a solid marketing platform. Leveraging existing audiences is crucial; practitioners should tap into their current client base instead of trying to build one from scratch. AI developments have made conventional sales tactics obsolete; practitioners need to focus on selling comprehensive solutions rather than individual services like lab tests or supplements. Creating a unique branded solution can provide a competitive edge in the increasingly crowded field of virtual functional medicine. Building a podcast or regular content platform is essential for scaling marketing efforts and establishing authority in the virtual healthcare space. Notable Quotes: "If you build it, then they have to find you, and how do you separate yourself from other practitioners?" "Patients don't quit protocols easily, but they don't quit relationships easily." "If you're selling just labs, supplements, or diet programs, AI can do that better and faster." "We build the bike for you. It rides great, and it's ready for you to start helping patients now." "Start with a podcast. Leverage it to create a marketing platform for long-term sustainability."
