The Longer Game Episode 23: To Love The Brand: A Lesson On Brands, People, & Well-Placed Words

About our guest:
Eric is a Creative Director turned Messaging Strategist, for a really good reason. Frustrated by brand development processes that were too slow, too costly, and ultimately written from a consultant’s POV, he invented his own. He’s helmed his process to help more than 100 brands find their greatness, something Eric calls, The Soul Difference. Naked Juice, Atkins, Jenny Craig, Lenny & Larry’s, Zespri Kiwifruit, Health Warrior and Perfect Bar have all been clients. And he’s remained close with these brands’ Founders, past and current owners, and investors.
