Branding is something that informs the whole company and its customers about what we are doing here together. And the 4 questions we should ask is: 1) who are we 2) what do we do 3) why is it matter 4) how should we show up in the world
Mr Stephen, God will bless you richly for the directional transformation to accessing new PERSPECTIVE in branding! Thank you so much Sir Marty Neumeier for the insight!
I've been hearing arguments about which is more important, branding or marketing. My two cents is that marketing is an important source of forward momentum, but branding is the rudder. In simple terms, branding is about meaningful differentiation. It is how an organization gains agency over its trajectory in the market.
Excellent conversation. The brand flip is one of the best books I’ve read. This interview has inspired me to buy both his other books. I have 17 years experience working with Nike and adidas, so I have worked with some incredible talent. I now run my own consulting business and I’ve positioned myself as a GTM strategy consultant, which was my last role, I work with startups. I struggled with this four years ago as people thought they need a CMO. I still get titled this! However I stuck with it and now that’s how investors and founders find me. With a background in sales, brand marketing and GTM I didn’t want to restrict myself as it’s the formulation of the strategy that I truly love. I am at the point of reassessing my business positioning, so this has given me lots of food for thought! Thank you.
Its commendable the level of knowledge Stephen has acquired as he has intensely studied the works of his interviewee . In a sense his style reminds me of Charlie Rose who even went further to create magic in his interviews by unveiling fresh thought patterns. I'd personally like to witness this in the future then those time pieces give grounds to create new material and perhaps even fresh books to spark the imagination. Theres no such thing as a too much swagger.
Fantastic interview and very accurate. I loved the ROI question such a road block when educating or pitching clients about why branding is so important!
great vid thanks! one piece of input on sound. a de-esser would go a long way and it sounds super compressed and distorting. you could improve your sound a lot with a few minor changes. hope that helps thanks again
I don't know why I haven't seen this episode before, but I've seen it now, thanks to those short clips you shared on LinkedIn, Stephen! Thank you, and thank you Marty! As always, great content! Stay safe, both!
Hello Stephen, I have started to follow you closely in youtube after a long thought and self-investigation of what I would sincerely love to do for the rest of my life, and I found that brand strategy is the one!! however I always get the idea that most of the people who want brand strategy are designers or marketers in a way, while I am a recent international business graduate... i have a concern whether this will create problems for me in pursuing brand strategy. Thank you !
Steven! Thank you so much for the wonderful content that you provide us with. I have taken some of your courses and I learned many things from you. Your material is organized, thorough and practical. I also have been listening to Marty and last week I did the LevelC brand specialist workshop with him and Andy. Now in the same tribe as you are and very happy about it too 🙌🏼😍
Amazing to see these two come together in a podcast. Both had a huge impact on my transition from a designer to a brand strategist. 💚
Glad you enjoyed it!

That a good way of thinking of it. This video dives in a little deeper. [link to branding vs marketing video]
