The Two, Four, Five Framework for Brand Marketing
The podcast episode discussed the Two, Four, Five framework for brand marketing. According to this framework, a brand campaign can be divided into three parts: the fame builder, short stories, and calls to action. The fame builder is a 30 to 60-second video that aims to build awareness and get stuck in people's heads. It focuses on being interesting, unique, or funny. This video can then be cut down into 15-second short stories, which highlight specific features or include a call to action. Finally, the short stories can be further cut down into GIFs or single image ads with clear calls to action. This framework allows for a mix of brand and performance marketing, ensuring both broader reach and targeted conversions.
