098 Leslie Zane: Brands and the Subconscious Advantage Part 1 of a Two-Part Interview

Paradigm Shift with Christina Martini

In this episode, Christina Martini and Leslie Zane discuss:

• Leslie’s earlier career and how she learned to implement her own vision and philosophy of how brands should be marketing themselves.
• How Leslie defines a brand and how a brand is its most effective.
• The beginning and growth of Leslie’s company, Triggers.
• Making your brand the dominant, instinctive choice to consumers.

Key Takeaways:

• A brand is a collection of associations, both positive and negative, in our memories and our subconscious.
• There is more to branding than what you see in research.
• There are powerful codes and queues that ignite our memory and draw a connection out of us. You can use these ideas that already exist to become a way to leverage your brand growth.
• Everything is about brand and has the potential to be thought about as a brand.

"Brands exist in the minds of consumers, and that is really how we need to be thinking of them." — Leslie Zane
