Episode #151. Today’s focus is a technical skill on how to step change growth of your brand or business. When we refer to step change, we don’t mean incremental movements in growth, but a bold, substantial shift; whether that’s a significant reversal of brand decline or stepping out into new categories and territories in pursuit of brand-new growth opportunities. It requires a real mindset shift – plus bravery and curiosity – to step change growth of your brand of business.
Joining Abby is her guest Jo McClintock, award-winning marketer and Trainline’s VP Brand and Marketing. Jo is known in the industry for her strategic thinking, combining brand purpose and commercial strategy for brands such as Moonpig, Skyscanner, Screwfix and today at Trainline. This has really shown up in big ideas such as the award-winning ‘I Came By Train’ sustainable train initiative to get more people out of cars and planes and onto the rails, as well as scaling Trainline into four new international markets.
In this episode, Jo shares her definition of a step changing growth, how to bring new ideas to your team, building a collaborative culture that supports bold ideas, helping others to visualise to bring to life and making space for curiosity.
Plus, her career highs and lows and advice for marketers of tomorrow.
