Description

I've just launched a new YouTube channel!! The concept? I take real businesses struggling to stand the f*ck out, provide my positioning/branding/lead gen help, and record it all for YouTube. The first mini-series features three freelance marketers (copywriter Rob, ecommerce designer Laura, and non-fiction book coach Vicky).I hope you'll set aside half an hour to watch it through. Maybe with your morning coffee? Or lunch break? Or evening onion soup? And then, the usual "Subscribe, Like, Share" would go a long, long way too.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdNXaHHVnVntg5gpveB-5_Q***I recorded this episode at the height of the Black Lives Matter movement, and like many of us, you may be struggling with the best way to approach the subject and other social issues in your campaigns.I’m not the best person to talk about this subject, so I invited the multi-award winning businesswoman Flavilla Fongang onto the podcast.Flavilla is an expert on the subject and she discusses how you can tackle issues while still coming across as authentic.Topics covered:The biggest mistake you can make is thinking of social issues as trendsGreat brands are ones that can make a difference and not just sell their productsAlign your brand with a social issue and focus on impact KPIs not marketing KPIsIf you are a small brand, start with your local communityThe top two mistakes that brands make when dealing with social issuesYou don’t have to comment on every social issue. Choose your focus and stick to it.How to ensure that every employee is on board with the focus and implements itWhy management should be a two way systemWhat do impact KPIs look like for each department in a large companyCollaborating with a brand that is focused on the same social issuesCreate one campaign that is about impact and not directly about money.Resources mentioned:Tech Brains TalkStart with the Why - Simon SinekBlinkistState of Mind SeriesMakeLoveNotPornCindy Gallop Podcast Episode2BobsDavid Baker podcast episode3coloursrule.com***→ Buy my book: book.stfo.io→ Watch my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdNXaHHVnVntg5gpveB-5_Q→ Take my 60-second quiz: stfo.io/q→ See my pretty face on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/louisgrenier/→ Leave a review on Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3p4wL4r→ Leave a review on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7iEF1qovZZiaP1iRtxGARo🐔
