Description

Hey Brand Nerds! We have a surfer dude who doubles as a marketing maven!!. What a fun ride with Ken who shares many fun stories throughout his career from writing copy for the California Lottery, to his ill-fated Hamburger Helper campaign and into cultural relevance for Yum in the many different countries they serve. Oh and lots to learn including these highlights:

• RED- Relevant, Ease and Distinctive
• Always know your culture
• Selling the dream of the dream
• Learning from brilliant peers such as MIT Building 23
• Don’t get cocky marketers, be humble and don’t argue with consumers!
• Fight against the cultural norm at your own peril, better to work WITH culture
• Lot of snake oil in MarTech…. Be careful of the creepy factor…
• Gen Z- craving comfort
