A concept makes a better brand
A great brand isn’t always built around what it sells. Instead it can be built around a bigger idea that gives people something memorable to connect with long after products and services evolve. Now, for many businesses, they focus on communicating what they offer. But the strongest brands I believe create meaning beyond the transaction, shaping everything from their messaging, visual identity, ex

Why Branding?
This episode is all about a question I get asked more than almost any other: Why does branding actually matter? So much so I put a list of 10 dot points on my G’day Frank brand services website about the 10 biggest reasons I believe better branding leads to better business success.Which covers everything from helping customers choose you over competitors and pay a premium, through to building loya

The things big brands get right that a little brand can do too
What can you expect from this podcast episode?Big brands have plenty of advantages that smaller brands don’t, but that doesn’t mean smaller brands can’t learn from what they consistently get right. In this episode, I looks at some of the simple branding principles that businesses of any size can use to become more recognisable, memorable and easier to think of when needed. From choosing a shorter

Deal or No Deal? Choose a Briefcase and unlock your next big brand win
In the last 15 years I’ve accumulated a fair share of the do’s and don’t’s when it comes to developing and managing a brand to help it succeed and in turn, see greater business growth and success from that investment of time, effort and money into your brand.Inside each of these 20 briefcases is a brand-related tip for your branding and marketing efforts that I want to share with you. No matter if

It's not how big your logo is, it's how you use it
In this episode, I’m looking at why “make the logo bigger” isn’t always the answer, and why effective branding is less about the size of a logo and more about the meaning attached to it. From packaging and signage to positioning and marketing, every touchpoint shapes what consumers think and feel when they see your brand.You’ll learn why a logo is identification, not communication, why context mat

Positioning vs. Purpose, is there a difference?
Many businesses spend a lot of time talking about their purpose. While some spend a lot of time talking about their positioning. But they’re not the same thing.Purpose is why your business exists. Positioning is the space you want to occupy in customers’ minds. This episode explores the difference between the two, why businesses often confuse them, and why having a meaningful purpose doesn’t autom

What does a good branding person actually do?
Most people think a branding person designs logos. And while that can be part of the job, branding often goes much deeper than visual design alone. From brand strategy, internal team culture and messaging through to customer experience, brand naming and brand touchpoints, there are many different ways branding can influence how a business is perceived and remembered. This episode explores what bra

Create a new distinctive asset for your brand
In this episode, I talk about one of the easiest branding wins most businesses could make today… creating a new distinctive brand asset and actually committing to using it consistently.Because while most brands rely on the same logos, colours and generic messaging as everyone else in their category, the brands people remember usually give customers multiple things to recognise and associate with t

Don’t be a brand that sacrifices personality for professionalism
In this episode, I talk about why so many brands are missing out on a big opportunity by sacrificing personality in the pursuit of looking “professional.” By only focusing on how your brand looks and falling back on safe messaging that every other brand does, I explore why distinctiveness matters more than ever if everyone is playing the same game. Because while consistency helps build recognition

One FMCG product brand or many?
In this episode, I break down the three main ways brands approach selling multiple products on supermarket shelves, and why the strategy behind it matters far more than most people realise. From Coca-Cola owning Sprite and Fanta, to Kellogg’s endorsing products like Corn Flakes, I unpack the difference between a House of Brands, a Branded House, and an Endorsed Brand model, otherwise known as bran

How much does a logo design cost?
In this episode, I break down one of the most common questions I get asked: how much does a logo design actually cost? And the honest answer is… it depends. Because you can get a logo for next to nothing, or you can spend thousands. But what I unpack here isn’t just the price ranges, it’s what you’re actually paying for at each level and why so many businesses get this wrong. From cheap templates

Is your branding sh*t?
In this episode, I ask a pretty blunt question: is your branding actually doing its job...is it s**t? Or is it quietly holding your business back? I diagnose the common signs I see all the time, like inconsistent messaging, forgettable visuals, and brands that look fine on the surface but don’t give people a real reason to choose them. It’s not about whether your logo looks good. It’s about whethe

How to destroy brand trust in 15 seconds with AI
In this episode, I demonstrate just how easy it is to destroy brand trust in seconds using AI and why so many businesses are playing with fire without realising it. With tools now capable of generating hyper-real people, testimonials, and content, the line between what’s real and what’s fabricated is getting dangerously thin. And while it might feel like a shortcut to credibility, I explain why th

Stop, that’s too many brand colours
This episode is a straight-talking take on one of the most common branding mistakes, using too many colours. I break down why more colours don’t make your brand more creative, they make it harder to use, harder to stay consistent, and harder to remember. You’ll hear why the strongest brands commit to one or two core colours, how restraint actually leads to more effective branding, and what happens

The most overlooked part of branding is a team culture
This episode breaks down one of the most overlooked parts of branding, what’s happening inside your business, not just what you show on the outside. I talk through why branding isn’t built on logos, colours, or messaging alone, but on the internal identity your team actually believes in and delivers every day. Because when there’s no alignment internally, inconsistency creeps in, experiences don’t

Most brands don’t fail, they just lose momentum
This episode is a reality check on why most brands don’t actually fail, they just fade out. I talk through how momentum is what really drives brand growth, and how so many businesses lose it by going quiet, getting inconsistent, or only showing up when things get slow. Because the truth is, brands don’t disappear overnight, they just slowly become forgettable. So I break down what causes that drop

The cost of building a brand
Building a brand isn’t just about what you spend upfront, it’s about what that investment unlocks over time. In this episode, I talk through the real cost of building a brand. I also cover how a well-built brand creates long-term value, makes your business easier to choose, and ultimately works harder for you day to day, so you can decide for yourself… is the cost of developing a brand worth it? G

Make branding uncomplicated
Branding gets overcomplicated far too often, so in this episode I show why stripping it back to what actually matters is the better branding approach. I talk through why a brand shouldn’t live in a thick strategy document that no one reads, but instead be simple enough that your whole team can understand it and use it every day. From purpose and values to messaging and visual identity, I explain h

Is a good brand name more important than a good logo?
In this episode I explore an important branding question: is a good brand name more important than a good logo? I break down the role brand names and logos play in brand recognition, why many businesses overvalue logo design, and how stronger brand naming can help businesses stand out, be easier to remember, and build long-term brand equity. If you’re thinking about brand naming, logo design or bu

When is it time to rebrand?
In this episode I unpack the question I get asked all the time, when is it actually time to rebrand? I walk through the difference between a full rebrand and a simple refresh, and explain why a rebrand is not just a new logo but a strategic reset around target customers, positioning, objective and identity direction. I cover the key signals that it is time to start again and when a lighter refresh

How can we expect AI to help us do better branding if we don’t know what better is?
In this week’s episode I’m exploring whether AI can actually create “better” branding if we as humans do not first understand what better means and looks like from experience, skill and taste. I’m arguing that AI is a powerful tool for speed, exploration and efficiency but not a replacement for strategy, taste or creative judgment. It highlights the risks of relying on AI without clear direction,

“I only need a logo” - Why better branding needs more than a logo
In this episode I’m talking about why a brand is more than a logo, to echo the millions of times a branding or marketing person has said this into a void. In the hopes it will be a shot in the arm that many small business owners need to see branding as more than just the visual icon that represents their business and go a bit deeper in the same ways that big brands do. Because it is achievable to
