Description
When building a community, there's one principle which lays the foundation for every community and culture around the world – People Like Us Do Things Like This. It's a sense of tribalism, and a concept that Seth Godin, a global thought leader, brought to the world more than 10 years ago.
Seth Godin is an entrepreneur, best-selling author, and speaker. In addition to launching one of the most popular blogs in the world, he has written 20 best-selling books, including The Dip, Linchpin, Purple Cow, Tribes, and This is Marketing – which was an instant bestseller in numerous countries around the world. Though renowned for his writing and speaking, Seth also founded two companies, Squidoo and Yoyodyne (acquired by Yahoo!).
In 2013, Seth was inducted into the Direct Marketing Hall of Fame and, in 2018, was inducted into the Marketing Hall of Fame.
In this episode, Seth and Ben Grynol, Head of Growth at Levels, talked about marketing, community, and what it was like to grow up in Buffalo, New York.
