The biggest question when it comes to marketing strategy is – push or pull? On this episode, we look into the meaning and relevance of this approach.

Social Listening, Missing the Point? | Podcast S02E03
The best kinds of relationships are ones where you listen to each other. On this episode, we look into how social listening is able to quantify data and analyze the different topics that matter for your brand development.

If you’re not listening at all times, then you’re probably disconnected and missing the point. The cost of not responding accordingly is something brands need to consider. Without this tool, we tend to lose track and misinterpret the reality of what your audience truly wants or needs. In this episode, we talk to the founder and CEO of Crackerjack Marketing, Stephanie Schwab. She shares with us the significance of social listening tools for brands and what type of data you can look for to help understand customers more. Read More…

And believe it or not, big brands have been using this theory to keep buyers hooked into purchasing products and services. In this podcast, we will be speaking to Jasmine Bina from The Concept Bureau – a brand strategy expert who can demonstrate how you, as a business can leverage from this idea and create content that engages with your customers better.
