The Brands That Printed Money in Q2 vs the Ones That Spent Millions Insulting Their Buyers

تفصیل

Two brands doing $46 billion in revenue combined spent millions of marketing dollars insulting the exact people responsible for the majority of that revenue. Five other brands made their buyers feel so seen that their comment sections looked nothing like comment sections for products — they looked like communities. In this episode of Running With Wolves, Savannah breaks down the Q2 marketing campaigns that got it right and the ones that got it catastrophically wrong — and what every founder needs to take from both. Here's what this episode covers: • The difference between marketing to a demographic and marketing to a lived experience — and why one prints money while the other gets ignored • The alienation tax — what happens when you focus on one segment of your audience and accidentally insult the other 90% • Why Nike's Boston Marathon campaign was a marketing disaster hiding behind good engagement numbers • Why selling the mission, the outcome and the conversation creates cult-like brand obsession — and selling the product only creates a one-time purchase Apply to work with Savannah HERE: http://bit.ly/applywlfpodcast or DM her on Instagram @itssavannahjordan ( / itssavannahjordan ) with your takeaway.
