episode The Differentiation vs Distinctiveness Debate artwork
The Differentiation vs Distinctiveness Debate

Only 15% of brand assets are truly distinctive. And just 19% of logos achieve "gold" status in recognizability according to a study by Ipsos and JKR. So which marketing strategy matters more: differentiation or distinctiveness? In this episode, Elena, Angela, and Rob debate whether brands should focus on meaningful differentiation or memorable distinctiveness. The hosts explore research showing that while differentiation plays a more limited role than traditionally assumed, distinctiveness is crucial for getting into consumers' consideration sets. They also examine how category dynamics impact which strategy dominates and share real-world examples of brands that excel at either approach.  Topics covered:  * [01:00] Research from Rob Myerson on Byron Sharp's distinctiveness claims * [03:00] The case for focusing on distinctiveness in marketing * [06:00] Why differentiation gives brands resilience and pricing power * [09:00] How category dynamics impact strategy importance * [12:30] The role of distinctiveness in TV advertising effectiveness * [19:00] Examples of brands excelling at distinctiveness vs differentiation    To learn more, visit marketingarchitects.com/podcast [https://www.marketingarchitects.com/Podcast] or subscribe to our newsletter at marketingarchitects.com/newsletter [https://www.marketingarchitects.com/Newsletter].    Resources:   2021 WARC Article: https://www.warc.com/newsandopinion/opinion/what-does-byron-sharps-research-really-tell-us-about-differentiation/en-gb/4314 [https://www.warc.com/newsandopinion/opinion/what-does-byron-sharps-research-really-tell-us-about-differentiation/en-gb/4314]   Get more research-backed marketing strategies by subscribing to The Marketing Architects on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.

episode The Louder You Are, the More You Grow: Why ESOV Still Works artwork
The Louder You Are, the More You Grow: Why ESOV Still Works

A study from Les Binet and Peter Field found that for every 10-point increase in excess share of voice, brands see around a 0.5% annual market share growth on average. But does this marketing principle still hold true in today's fragmented media landscape? This week, Elena, Angela, and Rob are joined by VP of Strategy Dan Cleveland to explore excess share of voice (ESOV) and its enduring relevance. They dive into how ESOV correlates with growth, why it's still a valuable planning tool, and what happens when brands let their share of voice slip below market share. Plus, discover why TV remains crucial for building the top-of-funnel awareness that drives long-term brand performance. Topics covered:  * [01:00] The history of share of voice and why it matters * [03:30] How excess share of voice links to market share growth * [08:00] When ESOV doesn't work (and what that reveals) * [12:30] Using share of search as a real-time metric * [16:00] Why top-of-funnel channels drive brand awareness * [21:00] The risks of underspending compared to your share of market * [27:00] Practical steps to apply ESOV to your strategy    To learn more, visit marketingarchitects.com/podcast [https://www.marketingarchitects.com/Podcast] or subscribe to our newsletter at marketingarchitects.com/newsletter [https://www.marketingarchitects.com/Newsletter].  Resources:   2023 IPA Article: https://ipa.co.uk/knowledge/ipa-blog/esov-an-excessive-focus-on-the-wrong-thing/?utm_source=chatgpt.com [https://ipa.co.uk/knowledge/ipa-blog/esov-an-excessive-focus-on-the-wrong-thing/?utm_source=chatgpt.com]   Get more research-backed marketing strategies by subscribing to The Marketing Architects on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.
Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
