• #595: Time Out for a Terminology Twist
    Oct 1 2024

    Executive faculty members from the Loyalty Academy™, the CEO of the Wise Marketer Group,Bill Hanifin, and his CMO, Aaron Dauphinee are back again this week for the Wiser Loyalty podcast series for Let’s Talk Loyalty. Our loyalty industry SMEs provide their weekly perspectives on constructs from the Loyalty Academy™ curriculum for their Certified Loyalty Marketing Professional™ (CLMP™) designation and each month they cover content from one of the core courses.

    In this week’s episode Bill and Aaron take a different twist on things by exploring some terminology and understanding around some basic constructs. There are five episodes this month where the duo explores topics from the Loyalty Analytics curriculum (course 107) so they thought they’d take a bit of a time out to mull on some recent in market experiences that impact loyalty marketers.

  • #594: Trust and Taylor Swift - Loyalty Insights from London Business School's Alex Brown
    Sep 26 2024

    This episode is available in audio format on our Let's Talk Loyalty podcast and in video format on www.Loyalty.TV.

    This episode explores some of the key concepts that underpin how we as human beings behave with brands, through the academic insights and wisdom of Alex Brown, whose work I have followed on LinkedIn for the last few years.

    With an incredible career teaching digital marketing and digital strategy in top tier schools including London Business School and Wharton University, I was thrilled when Alex started binge-listening to "Let's Talk Loyalty" a couple of years ago as part of his preparations to teach his students about the power of emotional loyalty and I know he still recommends us to his students!

    Alex is fascinating to follow given his career focus and pioneering the use of social media throughout his teaching and industry work, and he joins me today to talk about loyalty through the lens of Taylor Swift and Trust.

    Listen and learn and please do enjoy our conversation.
