#186: How the Medium Magnifies Your Message
The media you choose, the channels you select, determine the kind of message you will share to connect with your audience. And most of us use our analytical left brain to understand what drives our customers. But this only covers what we believe is the logical behavioral side, and isn’t capturing the full picture of what customers want and need.
Therefore, in this week’s episode, discover a revolutionary way of understanding audiences and how to effectively communicate using an interesting combination of algorithms and anecdotes.
Pete is the founder and Chief Creative Officer of Digital Surgeons, a communications company that helps its partners design forward-thinking brands, business models and experiences. They design brand experiences for notable companies including Lego, The US Open, and Sabra.
Pete believes that creativity and curiosity have the power to not only change people personally and professionally, but that it can also change the planet.
