Episode Highlights

Threads? What do we do?!? This is a question marketers have been asking with the latest shiny new thing. “Think strategy before tactics,” Chantal cautions.

Where do we start? “Listen to your clients.” Again, with so many distractions today, it can be hard to remember this simple yet effective advice that Chantal doubled down on.

How can marketers build an emotional connection? “My research over the past few years has yielded five emotional strategies driving brands.” They are:

  1. Certainty
  2. Connection
  3. Contribution
  4. Growth
  5. Significance

What brand has made Chantal smile recently? “I love Škoda, the car manufacturer,” Chantal shared. She loves the brand both for its funky colors and the amazing services she receives from Sam at her dealership!
