Collectively - Purpose-led business and marketing

Collectively is a podcast about building better businesses, and the journey all of us as business owners and entrepreneurs have along the way. In here, we share our experiences of building our own purpose-led businesses and the trials and tribulations, actions and results of our clients, as well as some of the most memorable and successful ethical and sustainable brands we admire. As two Marketers with over 40 years experience between us, we chat about the marketing methods and mindsets that really move the dial for small-to-medium sized businesses, and how by working in collaboration with others, you can build a successful business and market it in a way that feels aligned, authentic and appealing for you and all your audiences! Collectively, is a podcast by The Marketing Collective Founder, Marijke Timmers and Mark My Words Founder, Monica Shepherd.

    Connecting with your audience through emotion

    Defining your target audience without bias or stereotypes

    Without knowing your audience, you’re shooting in the dark. It's essential for your marketing, messaging, and product development.

In this episode we’re talking about how to craft effective, inclusive brand persons (or buyer personas) by digging into the psychographics that drive decisions and avoiding bias a...

    Building brand credibility with certifications & standards

    Greenwashing, woke washing and virtue signalling— there are plenty of ways that brands can embellish the true results or impact of their products or processes to mislead consumers. So, are certifications and standards the solution to keeping brands accountable to their claims?Certifications and standards are more than just marketing tools, in fact they take some serious commitment to operational KPIs, but they can become a helpful tool to leverage when it comes to sharing your story and diffe...

    Are you an antisocial entrepreneur?
