The Brand Naming with Jeff, PR and Music with Michelle Andersen and Raising the Bar in the Bar with Robert Episode
This week the topic for the Marketing Studio with Jeff Clark is brand naming, our guest is VP of NextTech Communications, Michelle Anderson and Robert Rose talks about raising the bar over a cocktail in the Rockstar CMO virtual bar.
In the newly rebranded Marketing Studio, Ian Truscott and regular guest, rockstar strategy advisor Jeff Clark, former Research Director at SiriusDecisions/Forrester, discuss the process of naming a brand, whether it's a company, a product, or a new service that you offer.
Ian chats with Michelle Andersen, a marketing communications professional with a career spanning more than 20 years that started as a music publicist, working with Lawrence Welk-owned Vanguard Records, and evolved through working with consumer technology brands from the dawn of the internet, a stint in philanthropy, and now deep into the next iteration of technologies like IoT and Web3. As you’ll hear, her work and career have been led by her passions, almost always involving music and technology. Michelle recently joined NextTech Communications, a women-led agency born from The Bliss Group, as vice president.
And we wind down the week in the Rockstar CMO virtual bar with Robert Rose, Chief Trouble Maker at The Content Advisory, who transports us away with a cocktail to discuss how we are all exhausted, but need to raise the bar.
If you have any thoughts or suggestions on the topics we discuss, please let us know.
Enjoy!

"Ian is both a CMO and a student of marketing. Ever curious, he dives deep into the biggest issues facing CMOs and believes that B2B marketing can be so much better than it typically is. He also knows how to butter up his guests in a way that makes them feel appreciated and even more committed to sharing useful knowledge."- Drew Neisser - Chief Marketing Renegade

"Ian really knows his stuff when it comes to modern marketing tech and techniques. His 'gang' of Jeff Clark and Robert Rose make the show a must-listen-to if you want to get a great view over the marketing landscape." - ASmithcalledKeith via Apple Podcasts
