The Dos and Don'ts of Marketing During Black History Month - S1:E4

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

vendredi 3 février 2023 • Durée 01:05:51

Welcome back to Creative Friction! This week we talk about the timely topic of the dos and don’ts of marketing during Black History Month. Every February, brands suddenly find they have something to say (or sell) related to Black History Month. It’s become common for brands to participate in Black History Month, but these efforts are often perceived as little more than performative activism.

So, how can your company uplift and celebrate Black culture and the Black individuals in your community, without appropriating Black culture for likes on social media? Let’s find out.

In this episode, we cover some “dos” such as:

- DO show support for the Black community outside of Februar
- DO collaborate with employees and elevate Black voices from your community

And some “don’ts”

- DON’T put the brunt of the work on Black employee
- DON’T celebrate publicly if you're not celebrating internally

This February, approach Black History Month with authenticity and action, but also think about how you can uplift Black communities and culture year-round. This month is more than just an opportunity to educate people. It’s an opportunity to promote positive stories, check your motives, and make some changes.

Carving Your Own Creative Path with Jasmine Childress

vendredi 2 juin 2023 • Durée 01:06:42

Many creatives wish to control their own destiny, to strike out on their own and start their own business. In theory, this often sounds like a dream scenario, but in reality, most people are scared to leave their day job in pursuit of something new.

However, for the few that do take the leap forward and stick with it long term, we’ve found that there are certain skills and experiences they possess that lead to success.

In today’s episode, we are joined by Jasmine Childress, founder of Eight Thirty Seven, a creative and technology agency that specializes in working with women-led companies to build strong brand pillars and online experiences. Listen in as we pull back the curtain on setting boundaries and expectations with clients, how to handle slow seasons, and what it takes to be successful as a creative solopreneur,

Listen in as we speak about:

Prospecting for new clients
Developing relationships with other creatives
Building up your confidence in your creative abilities over time
The courage it takes to raise your prices and how necessary this is

And much, much, more!

Aligning An Agency That Amplifies Your Impact with Ari Kryzyzek

vendredi 2 juin 2023 • Durée 01:04:20

If you grew up in America, you’re accustomed to entrepreneurial success stories left and right. You knew that if you worked hard and buckled down, you would be given your opportunities. But this isn’t the experience many people who grow up outside of the United States face.

Carrying unique insight and culture outside of the common lens, entrepreneurs coming into the United States can bring a fresh perspective to the companies they join and get off the ground. The challenge is, many people don’t even know that they can have opportunities outside of their lived experience. But with opportunity, also comes challenges.

In today’s episode, we are joined by Ari Krzyzek, CEO at Chykalophia, a creative technology agency that specializes in working with women-led companies to build strong brand pillars and online experiences. We discuss what it takes to grow an impact-oriented agency from the ground up, how to go about identifying and establishing a niche, and the importance of making giving back a core part of your mission as a marketing leader.

Listen in as we speak about:

What it takes to grow an impact-oriented agency from the ground up
How to go about identifying and establishing a niche
The importance of making giving back a core part of your mission
The challenges and triumphs of being an Asian woman in leadership

And much, much, more!
