Season 5 · Episode 9

Sunday, July 21, 2024 • Duration 37:59

Brain Hurt Scale = 5/10. Following on from part 1, we explore a paper that studied thousands of online retailers between 2020 and 2022. The findings from this study have massive implications on the digital marketing industry, decision-makers, executives and investors.

They analyzed 100's of billions of digital marketing expenditure and looked at how this affected customer acquisition and growth. Finding that not only have costs increased on average but firms who targeted certain customers and used particular channels realized the greatest drops in yield.

So why are so few in the industry talking about something so momentous? There are a few reasons for that which we discuss near the end.

Part 2 - Where did brand campaigns came from? The history of advertising agencies, marketing & growth - S4 Ep16

Season 4 · Episode 16

Thursday, October 26, 2023 • Duration 47:12

Brain Hurt Scale = 2/10. Note - this is the audio version which is an extended yet similar and different version of the written article which includes diagrams and videos. If reading is your thing go here https://www.brandingmag.com/john-james/brand-campaigns-part-2-where-did-they-come-from/ - but this audio version is more story-like so it makes for perfect listening.

Why do some people say 'performance marketing' when all really mean is Google search?

Why do digital marketers have an allergic reaction when they're asked to use an offline channel?

Why do advertising agencies love brand campaigns but hate digital?

Why is the Silicon Valley growth discipline deeply ironic?

And what's all of this got to do with Brand Campaigns!

Sometimes to understand why we use terms we need to understand history. Understand the etymology of these terms. Terms like performance marketing, brand marketing, ATL, BTL, growth hacking, growth marketing, demand generation, demand capture - oh gee I could go on all day.

Because there's reasons why all these terms exist, and why we use them - and that history is fascinating.

If this episode doesn't give you an 'a ha' moment then no episode will.

We leverage the power of memetics and research so you'll learn:

How these terms originated

Why using them is problematic

Why people who do, are unaware how their thinking has been warped subconsiously

Why DTC started in 1845 in the US - not the 90s or 2000's

Which channel American Expressed used to create an entire category (credit cards)

Gregory Kennedy - Confessions of two fractional CMOs - Trials, tribulations & opportunities - S4 Ep19

Season 4 · Episode 19

Wednesday, October 25, 2023 • Duration 56:23

Brain Hurt Scale = 2/10. Learn all the hot topics, struggles and opportunities in the current environment from the perspective of two fractional CMO's. After shooting the breeze about coffee (Skip to 4mins in to miss the coffee talk intro) Gregory Kennedy and John sit down to talk about what they're both seeing on the ground right now.

With significant declines in the yields and measurement of various digital media over the years, they discuss different ways to move forward and embrace a revised approach to the marketing function.

What's the difference between West and East coast business culture?

Why is the crazy valuations in the recent tech boom not even comparable to what happened back in the late 90s? Why is revenue growth and positive economics so important now?

How have digital channels changed over the years?

Gregory has worked in senior marketing roles at tech companies like InMobi, TapSense, NextRoll, Sojern and Noteable.

Embrace the future. Leave the shackles behind.

This is an easy listen.

That won't leave you in a bind.

Part 3.2 - How does advertising & branding? (2 of 2) - S4 Ep18

Season 4 · Episode 18

Saturday, October 21, 2023 • Duration 41:43

Brain hurt scale = 6/10. This is the second half of the former episode which will complete the audio version of Part 3's article.

In the former episode we covered in detail the first determinant of effective advertising - reach.

In this one, we explain what is 'brand' and how 'branding' actually works or doesn't work.

Then we explore the third factor which is all about making products 'easy to find and buy'.

Followed by even more myth busting at the end to put everything into a practical context.

This is an audio episode version of the first half of part 3's article published at Brandingmag - https://www.brandingmag.com/john-james/brand-campaigns-part-3-how-does-brand-advertising-work/

But some people wanted the audio version.

Part 3.1 - How does advertising & branding work? (1 of 2) - S4 Ep17

Season 4 · Episode 16

Friday, October 20, 2023 • Duration 35:11

Brain hurt scale = 7/10. Isn't it funny how we all think we know how advertising works, but very few of us know about the scientific side. Even fewer have married up science with the practical considerations of what it's like in an applied work setting. Until now!

After learning about what brand campaigns are in part 1 and understanding the etymology. We were then left with a gaping hole. How does brand advertising work?

And to know how brand advertising works, we first need to understand how all advertising works.

What is 'reach'? How do you know if you have it or not?

What is 'brand'? How do you know if your ad had branded or not?

What is 'advertising'? How do you know what is and isn't advertising?

This is an audio episode version of the first half of part 3's article published at Brandingmag - https://www.brandingmag.com/john-james/brand-campaigns-part-3-how-does-brand-advertising-work/

But some people prefer audio.

So here you go audiophiles
