Episode Quotables
“I love organic because it’s very personable and emotional... Organic is genuine and people engage with it because they love your brand.”
“We can’t overwhelm our audiences with constant push, we have to give them that balance of two-way conversation and make them feel like they're really talking to us as a brand and we’re listening.”
“There is so much value in getting scrappy and making your own creative without a full photoshoot.”
“My team and I are constantly talking about what’s next for us on our social channels. If you try to do every single channel that’s available out there and speak to every single person that's out there, you’re going to run yourself ragged really fast. Finding a way to focus on the channels that can be most successful based on your audience is a great first step.”
