This week Ian Truscott thinks about customer relationships and reciprocity. He shares the example of his friend Demie Loizou, founder of performance marketing agency This Is Digital and quotes Ted Rubin and his return on relationships mantra:
“Relationships are like muscle tissue; the more they are engaged, the stronger and more valuable they become”.
Our guest this week is Rebecca Biestman, the Chief Marketing Officer at Reputation. We discuss Rebecca’s marketing career, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), and she makes an excellent suggestion for the Rockstar CMO swimming pool.
Rebecca joined Reputation last year from Dialpad, a business communications SaaS platform. Before that Rebecca held various marketing leadership positions for RMS, a risk modelling software company, where shelaunched the company’s inaugural Social Impact program. Before moving to B2B tech, Rebecca specialized in B2C marketing for CPG and retail, working for Earth Essentials and Gap, Inc.
Finally, we find Robert Rose Chief Trouble Maker at The Content Advisory in the Rockstar CMO virtual bar, who over a cocktail discusses creative briefs that are neither brief nor creative.
Enjoy!
