EP 46:2019 Marketing Trends and Personalized Marketing | Brett Podolsky

In episode 46 of the Lion's Share Marketing Podcast, Tyler breaks in the new Fidelitas Studio (read: better audio, finally!) and talks with Brett Podolsky, Co-Founder of The Farmer’s Dog, a subscription-based pet health food company.

Before the interview, Tyler and Jen look ahead to 2019 and discuss the big trends in marketing, namely social commerce, chat bots, 5G internet, influencer marketing, and voice search. Tyler and Jen forecast a lot of opportunity in each of these areas, advising marketing leaders to find creative ways to explore these different opportunities for impact.

After reviewing marketing trends for 2019, Tyler brings on Brett to discuss his background and his work growing the Farmer’s Dog brand from scratch in a crowded industry. Brett got his start as a stand-up comedian, and he says that his desire to make people happy is what brought him to start The Farmer’s Dog. He always keeps this in mind as he strives to provide customers with great experiences and healthier pets.

As Brett dives into his team’s marketing strategy, he places a huge emphasis on the customers. The Farmer's Dog takes the customer experience to a rarely-matched level for subscription services, providing food that is personalized for each individual dog, correctly portioned, always delivered on time, and keeps dogs healthy. 

Finally, Brett leaves listeners with a final piece of advice, to work hard and stay patient, because big successes don’t happen overnight.

Join Tyler, Jen, and Brett in this discussion on all things pet food and personalized marketing.

EP 45: Marketing to Mind States with Will Leach

In episode 45 of the Lion’s Share Marketing Podcast, we’re joined by Will Leach, the author of Marketing to Mind States and founder of Trigger Point, a leading behavioral research and design consultancy. Tyler and Will discuss the ins and outs of behavioral research and how marketing leaders can use human behavior models to frame their campaigns.

After getting into his background and the inspiration for his book, Will dives into the basics of decision-making and what that means for marketers. He states that people make about 75,000 decisions every day, and most of those decisions are made on an unconscious level. People say that we’re emotional creatures, and behavioral research provides the science to back that up. Understanding how people make decisions is crucial to determining how to frame your marketing strategy, and Will explains that mind states are the key to this understanding.

A mind state, as Will describes, is a state of heightened emotional arousal that makes a person significantly more susceptible to influence. He gives the example of healthy eating, saying that most people say they want to eat healthy, but their food buying decisions do not always reflect that desire. Instead, there are multiple factors that can influence a person’s mind state as they choose which food to buy and eat.

Will goes more into depth with this, laying out his new behavioral model and the four factors that most influence a person’s decisions. Then, he shares his insights on the future of behavioral research in marketing, gives tips to marketing leaders on where to begin, and talks about his writing process. Finally, he leaves listeners with the advice to put more emphasis on triggers, or calls to action, in marketing campaigns. Since people are so emotional, a little can go a long way with simply telling customers to buy something.

Join Tyler, Jen, and Will in this discussion on behavioral research and marketing.
