Ep 33. The Secret to Brand Loyalty
EP. 33 BRAND LOVER PODCAST
The Secret to Brand Loyalty
The ultimate goal for any brand (no matter how big or small) is to cultivate a tribe of brand advocates. These are your most loyal purchasers who sing your praise and shout your brand name from the rooftops with no hesitation or inhibitions; who line up from the wee hours of the morning to be the first to grab your product releases and aren’t shy about telling the world about it.
This may seem an intimidating feat, but the process is actually quite simple once you understand the steps to get you there.
The secret to cultivating loyalty in your brand in this digital age is to fast track your customers to a point of trust. This looks different for every brand, depending on your offerings, your customers’ unique circumstances, wants, need and perceived risk.
Let’s explore the recipe to fast track brand loyalty. It’s possible for you!

Ep 32. Three ways to connect with your perfect customer
EP. 32 BRAND LOVER PODCAST
Three ways to connect with your perfect customer
No matter how good your product or service is, or how finely tuned it is, or how incredibly pretty it is…
90% of business is sales and marketing.
Ever wonder why so many small businesses fail? This is it. Brilliant marketing drives sales. Half-hearted marketing = business failure. Why? Because a) nobody is seeing your product or service or b) the right people aren’t seeing your product or service. It’s as simple as that.
People will simply not purchase from you unless you are perceived in their heart and mind as trustworthy. This takes time, intentional steps and a perfectly aligned brand strategy. The first step is connection. So today I’d love to share with you three ways you can connect with your perfect customer.
Are you ready to truly connect with your perfect customers?
My 5-Day Brand Revival challenge is coming back this month! Cultivate brand loyalty in your audience, in just five days. Reconnect with your audience, instigate meaningful relationships and increase visibility for your brand!

Ep 30. Good vs Bad branding
EP. 30 BRAND LOVER PODCAST
Good vs Bad Branding
Have you ever judged another business’ branding? Subconsciously, we are always judging, assessing and processing the messages we receive, whether they are visual, verbal or subliminal. It’s how we differentiate one brand from another, and figure out whether or not what they’re offering is right for us.
But when it comes to your own brand, how do you know if what you’re currently doing to portray your brand is good or bad?
Watch this episode as I compare the traits that might affect how your brand is perceived (whether good or bad!).
