Sweat Equity by Marketing Examined

What makes a brand memorable? In this episode, we dive into the power of community-driven content. From organic content challenges to cause-driven marketing, this episode is all about standing out and building loyal communities. We discuss how a viral “Hit the Goal with Me” campaign —created by an intern—turned the small brand “Smashd” into a massive success.

Plus, why do mission-driven brands inspire such strong customer loyalty? We also explore how to differentiate your brand by tapping into causes, building character-based narratives, and engaging with your audience creatively.

Don’t miss this masterclass on growth and community building.
