What’s on your list of “I can’t believe I’m still fighting this fluff in 2023!”?
Here’s mine (in no particular order):
πGeneration-focused marketing (millennials, y, z…)
π Brand archetypes (and most Jungian psychographics)
π “Start with the why” + “GrOw”schools of purpose
π Lovemarks (and generally “brand love” residue)
π Maslow (honestly!)
π “We’re different because we’re customer-centric”
π Brand frameworks that are a mashup of other frameworks
π Get/To/By creative briefs with no strategy in the “By” (or, often, anywhere else. Post coming soon.)
π “Brand is dead” (or TV is dead, or any “X is dead”)
π “We need to go viral.” / “create a movement” (in head: “here’s a movement. [flips the bird]”)
π “Marketing vs Branding”
