Manage episode 419372628 series 2890598
What if I could tell you the secret to great marketing? James Bond (yes, that's his real name), stops by Awakened Nation to share with Brad the secrets to why one idea sinks while another idea sticks in our brains.
James lost one of the most iconic ad campaigns of his career; when two eggs hit the frying pan and a narrator says "This is your brain. This is your brain on drugs. Any questions?"
After such a loss, he forced himself to figure out the emotional triggers that drive all iconic products to become mega brands.
This is a laugh out loud episode as James shares the secrets from his latest book Brain Glue, his unique sense of humor throughout his incredible career, and chats about the Father of modern Advertising David Ogilvy, and finally, why Pop-Tarts was such a hit. James shares one case study after another on how to name a product so it sells like hotcakes...or in this case, sells like Pop-Tarts.
If you work in advertising, marketing or public relations, this is the episode for you!
