    Recoding Brand DNA: Breaking Fashion’s Rules, Humanizing Aspiration & Rethinking Influencer Plays like ESPRIT ft. Ana Andjelic

    Recoding Brand DNA: Breaking Fashion’s Rules, Humanizing Aspiration & Rethinking Influencer Plays like ESPRIT ft. Ana Andjelic

    Legacy fashion brands have plenty of gravitas. They are the industry’s titans. But what becomes of them when nostalgia can’t sustain relevancy?
    A rewriting of brand DNA is needed. To become modern, playful, and cool, every brand must break fashion’s traditional rules. While you’re not an anarchist, ripping them up for the sake of it, you will rebuild a brand that knows where it stands; in relation to the culture, the consumer, and the category again.
    Ana knows the secret to doing that.
    In this episode of Building Brand Advocacy, Paul sits down with aspiration Guru & Chief Brand Officer at ESPRIT, Ana Andjelic. Author of ‘The Business of Aspiration’ and creator of ‘The Sociology of Business’ newsletter, Ana shares authentic advice from her vast experience building brands with a culture-first approach. As the ex-CBO of Rebecca Minkoff, ex-CMO of Mansur Gavriel, and ex-CBO of Banana Republic – where she led the label’s iconic rebrand in 2021 – no-one is better placed to help reinvent your fashion marketing strategies.
    With advice for finding creators as you would friends and tactically translating your brand’s values in every campaign, Ana reminds fashion Brand Builders of something many forgot. If you’re in fashion, you’re in the business of fun. 
    Discover Ana’s vision for bringing brand & performance marketing together (like she successfully did at Banana Republic and ESPRIT), the brands she sees injecting a healthy dose of playfulness (Corteiz, Jacquemus, or Casablanca anyone?), and how B Corp’s philosophy of betterment can be built into any brand’s strategy.
    Tune in to hear why shortcuts to customer acquisition never work, and why playing the long-game always will.

    Amazon, Netflix & Bloom & Wild: The Six Pillars of Personalization ft. David Mannheim

    Amazon, Netflix & Bloom & Wild: The Six Pillars of Personalization ft. David Mannheim

    It’s time Brand Builders stop buying into the hype cycle of personalization, and get back down to branding basics. Personalizing for your community is one thing, but a personification of their individualization is now key. 
    Join us in welcoming David Mannheim, the guru of personalization and Founder of Made With Intent, to this episode of Building Brand Advocacy. In a far-reaching conversation, Paul and David discuss why retention doesn’t equate to loyalty, how brands can prioritize care over competency (for the sake of their community), and the art of building for long-term goals at the expense of short-term gains. 
    From breakdowns of marketing initiatives at Amazon, Disney, Netflix, Gousto, and Bloom & Wild, you’ll learn what to do (and what not to do) to win in today’s brand landscape.
    On a technical level, personalization comes down to two things; segmentation and recommendations. David knows it’s much more than that, though. From his Six Pillars of Personalization – acknowledgement, familiarity, intimacy, authenticity, care & listening – there’s plenty to be learnt.
    Master these, and you’ll be on your way to Building Brand Advocacy.
