Timestamps:

(0:37) - Difference between Branding vs Direct Response and why not knowing the difference can lead to your business failing

(3:19) - Your branding can be a potential opportunity for maximizing value. You are reinforcing people to share stories about your brand rather than asking for immediate action from them

(6:16) - It’s very rare to find a massive “Direct Response” company these days. A “direct response” marketer is aggressive, while someone who focuses on branding will take time to market

(9:32) - Give people the words that describe your brand rather than trying to redefine it yourself. What you say about your brand should align with how people think about it

(13:43) - Most people in the “direct response” space are relatively young. The problem with this is that there aren’t enough older people to pass on their advice

(15:48) - Goodwill compounds faster than revenue. The more you give, you are creating a higher value with your audience. They will gravitate toward you without even asking because of the trust that was built
