One day, you're just a girl moving to New York from Canada with a visa and a dream, and a few years down the line, you're an in-demand industry success story. Such is the case with this week's guest. Alyssa sits down with Ariella Starkman, founder and executive producer of the full-service creative production company Starkman & Associates, as well as the managing director at HommeGirls, to learn all about the wild world of production. You've likely seen one (or several) of Ariella's events come across your Instagram or TikTok feed, as she and her team have built out experiences for some of the coolest, most sought-after brands on the scene, including Anna Sui, Dazed, Kim Shui, Luar, Nike, Sky High Farm, Stussy, Telfar, Vans, and Warby Parker. At a time when everyone is getting into the IRL activations game, Ariella operates under the philosophy that chic events are a dime a dozen, and making people feel like their time has been considered when they show up for something is crucial. Tune in to hear how Bravo's “Gallery Girls” inspired Ariella to start a career in the art world and led her to produce her first event in her early 20s, a warehouse art show in Toronto; how time is our most valuable resource and making experiences worthwhile through the details is her company's guiding principle; navigating the attention economy as a creative and a business owner; the importance of never phoning anything in; the dangers of “compare and despair;” why being the first person to do something is a double-edged sword, but while people may copy you, the sauce is not replicable; how to create a sense of curiosity by finding new, unexpected event spaces; why building a tight-knit professional community is key to finding meaning in your work; why at the end of the day, it's just not that serious, and much more.This episode was recorded in the podcast studio at The SQ @ 205 Hudson.

How many comments have you seen on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube over the last few years that read: “Give the marketing team a raise!” It's easy to boil everything a brand does down to simple marketing tactics, but how does one formulate a cohesive strategy — with a mix of product, content, social media, events, PR, collaborations, and more — and create a cultural hit? This week, Alyssa is joined by Ana Andjelic, a global brand executive, founder of The Sociology of Business newsletter on Substack, and author of Hitmakers: How Brands Influence Culture, to dive deep into the world of brand marketing and understanding how to tap into a cultural moment. Tune in to hear Ana's insights about mass culture versus niche culture and how they move at different speeds; whether it's possible to build a brand in 2025 without a fandom or community behind it; what happens when you use “authenticity” as a shortcut to culture; why brands must avoid being prisoners of the past and living in the archive; how to diversify the ways you're present in culture; the dangers of trying to grow too fast; whether product plus PR can equal a brand; why there are so many marketing content creators on TikTok, Substack, and YouTube now; unpacking ‘brat' as a marketing case study; why sometimes it just comes down to throwing a really good party/showing people a good time; and a discussion about the marketing highs and lows from today's most buzzed-about brands, including Telfar, Vans, Skims, Rhode, Prada, Miu Miu, Erewhon, and Loewe.This episode was recorded in the podcast studio at The SQ @ 205 Hudson.

Let's talk about HOW we're talking about Diddy. Though Sean "Diddy" Combs is in jail on a variety of SA allegations, a lot of social media content has reduced his alleged behavior to "being freaky" - raising a larger conversation about society's understanding of SA, consent and it's complicated relationship with consensual sex. Our resident kink enthusiast, Queen breaks down how sex and kinks get harmfully conflated with acts of violence and SA, while J. gets in their Black church kid Telfar about the influence of cultural Christianity, domination & control on community concepts of sex and deviance.

We're catching up with Anna on the west coast, her San Diego show, and Dre in Times Sq with a fun hosting gig. We chat about how big of a week this is for Steve from SATC (aka Anna?) with the major shout out on Fallon from Megan Thee Stallion! We're also chatting all things fall - what are we shopping for? Are we still into Telfar? Anna buys dupes when she's half asleep? Lol. We're ready to be new money, though mentally old money... a theory we've created. Dre updates us with a story that came out 20 years later about Will Smith's farts on the set of Men In Black that made the entire crew EVACUATE... so naturally we had to share some epic stories of our own.

Kadian Langlais is the Chief Marketing Officer at Renfro Brands, a 100-year-old legacy sock and hosiery design and manufacturing company. In her role, she oversees Renfro's diverse portfolio of brands and maintains its position as the largest manufacturer of socks in the U.S., producing three million pairs per week. Kadian grew up in Kingston, Jamaica, where she developed a love for interior design and has always had a passion for fashion. After immigrating to New York, she initially planned to go into investment banking but decided to follow her passion instead and enter the business side of the fashion world. Prior to joining Renfro, she consulted with leading brands and retailers on their e-commerce and digital marketing strategies.In this episode, Alan and Kadian discuss her pathway to becoming the CMO at Renfro, the role of DEI and how she's focused on it, and an initiative she helped launch called Project Footprint. When Kadian joined Renfro in 2018 as Vice President, DTC and Digital, she was tasked with expanding the business beyond the traditional brick-and-mortar stores the company traditionally relied on. With the move to CMO, she has had the opportunity to further help modernize Renfro through a full rebrand and instilling a new values system. Kadian tells us there can be a sock for every moment of the day and a way for Renfro to pivot its businesses to thrive through every economic shift. Despite commodity price inflation, global competition, and dynamic consumer preferences, Renfro has maintained its place as the largest sock company in the world.

Mockup Culture is everywhere these days. We have seen things from Wes Anderson Star Wars to Gucci Spring lookbooks created in MidJourney, the possibilities are truly endless. Join Phillip and Brian as they explore the notion that we now live in a time where any dream can be transformed into reality, no matter how bizarre or outlandish. They explore how prominent brands like Telfar are embracing the concept, utilizing gamified pricing strategies to captivate consumers. As they dissect these phenomena, they unravel the concepts of "hyperstition" and "metamodernism" and examine their implications for the modern consumer. Stay tuned for some content teasers from Phillip and Brian, as they hint at what's to come at our Visions Summit in Chicago.Tonal Shift{00:09:42} “Why does Dollar Shave Club or Glossier choose a Shopify? There's an operational cost associated with selling online and it gets more expensive every day, especially the more custom software you have and the more esoteric your business model is online. By choosing a platform that imposes a constraint on you, theoretically, you can drive the cost down.” - Phillip{00:16:09} “The things that create inherently shareable content and the things that are truly remarkable and worthy of talking about are things that are building so close to the edge of possibility that it requires a tremendous amount of investment.” - Phillip{00:17:18} “What we're seeing, and you wrote a whole article on this recently on mockup culture, is this idea that actually customers and fans and audiences are now having real influence on the greater brand.” - Brian{00:26:02} “Metamodernism is when a piece of content or something is created that's both critique and embrace of something. Some of these mockups are super interesting because they are commentary, they are ironic and sarcastic, but they're also good ideas.” - Brian{00:31:01} “This multifaceted way of engaging in media and art has a direct bearing on commerce because commerce powers it all.” - Phillip{00:40:55} “What algorithmic timelines do and what generative AI allows for people to create through hyperstition is that my idea of Hermes or Gucci or Nike is no longer fundamentally the same as yours.” - Phillip{00:43:41} “It's not personalization so much as your brand is going to hit differently for different people. You need to hit the notes that say the things that you're wanting to say to that person that maybe achieve the same outcome for a different person, but it's done differently.” - BrianAssociated Links:Find out more about The Visions Summit at RICE 2023 and make plans to meet us there!Have you checked out our YouTube channel yet?Subscribe to Insiders and The Senses to read more of what we are witnessing in the commerce world!Listen to our other episodes of Future CommerceHave any questions or comments about the show?
