The Rose & Rockstar: Uncommon Value

Welcome to The Rose and Rockstar - with the Chief Troublemaker at Seventh Bear, Robert Rose, behind the bar serving one of his splendid cocktails while our host Ian Truscott, a CMO but not a rockstar, picks his brain on a marketing topic.
This week, over a fancy cocktail with a fancy name, Ian and Robert discuss the importance of being distinct yet remaining relevant, the challenges of standing out in a crowded market, and the concept of 'uncommon value' as a competitive advantage.
-
The critical concept of being distinct.
-
Avoiding confusion about your place in the category.
-
The impact of AI and the importance of brand recall.
-
Creating “uncommon value” to differentiate.
-
How this idea impacts your storytelling.
Do you have a question for the bar? Or maybe an opinion on what we’ve discussed? Please get in touch - just search “rockstar cmo” on the interwebs or LinkedIn.
Enjoy!
