Welcome to a new episode of Business Lunch! Today, Roland and Ryan discuss the changing landscape of marketing and branding. In this episode, they explore how businesses can create meaningful connections with customers in an era of AI, economic uncertainty, and information overload. Learn why having a unique point of view and emotional resonance is more critical than ever for brand success.

Highlights:

"We are still going to do business with the brands that we know the most, that we like the most, that we trust the most."

"The tragic error that so many companies make is that they try to speak to everyone, and therefore speak to no one."

"Direct experience which informs a unique point of view shared by a worthy messenger."

"The highest and best use of a CEO at scale is being a spokesperson for their brand."
