Episode Highlights

What do B2B brands need to do differently in branding and marketing today? I thought I’d start with a softball! However, Linda knocked it out of the park. “B2B brands need to remember to focus on the end user. And that’s often a business rather than a specific consumer demographic.”

“From there, focus on getting your language and story down.” Linda stresses that marketers need to continue to test this through ongoing surveys and focus groups.

How can marketers stay sane in the new year? Marketers have to be organized and strategic.” And creative to boot! That’s not always an easy combo. That’s why Linda notes that it’s important for marketing leaders to understand their team and what motivates them.

What brand has made Linda smile recently? “Lazy One—creators of stylish PJs, robes, and slippers.” I love learning about new brands. Especially ones that can help me get comfortable as I think about all of the challenges marketers face today!
