When you hear the term “branding,” do you think of “branding” and “messaging” as one thing? Branding is more than just the visual aspect –– it’s also verbal. What’s the tone of the company as a whole? What’s the tone of the CEO and other executives? Though branding and messaging can often be an afterthought, it really is critical on so many levels. My guest, Bobby “G” Gillespie, is an expert in brand growth, so don’t miss hearing his insights!
Bobby Gillespie is the author of the book, Build Your Brand Like You Give Sh*t, and is known for his creativity and design chops. Since starting his brand-growth agency Propr in 2014, he has expanded his problem-solving prowess for brands far beyond design. With a focus on simplifying the complex, he speaks, writes, and advises growth-focused leaders to ditch the gimmicks and embrace their purpose to achieve sustainable, scalable, and fulfilling success.
Bobby G and I discuss branding, messaging, how companies think about it, how to implement these strategies for scaling, better positioning, and more.
