Key Take Aways
- Purpose is becoming increasingly important in branding and marketing, and it is following a similar growth trajectory as digital did.
- Building a purpose-driven agency requires patience, authenticity, and a long-term view of brand equity.
- While there may be challenges and doubters, founders should remember that no one has all the answers and everyone is figuring it out as they go.
- Consumers can be forgiving, but brands need to be authentic and consistent in their purpose-driven efforts to build lasting brand love.
- Purpose is not just about marketing and communications; it should be implemented within organizations through policies, benefits, and actions.
- The myth that all founders have it all figured out is not true; everyone is trying to navigate the challenges and uncertainties of entrepreneurship.
