096: Build Your Brand at an Instinctual Level
Leslie Zane began her career at blue-chip companies, where she witnessed the success of marketing initiatives as hit or miss. Her ideas about marketing differed from conventional wisdom and weren't always welcome inside the organization. She felt strongly that branding should be more than just pretty pictures and clever ad campaigns.
So Leslie struck out on her own and founded Triggers® with the express mission of consistently increasing revenue for her clients. Over the past 25 years, her company has a track record of growth through its unique expertise in changing brand preference at the instinctual level.
The vast majority of decisions people make, whether in the grocery store aisle, on Amazon, or at the voting booth, are instinctive. Leslie has uncovered what lies inside the mental shortcuts people use to make those decisions: networks of associations and memories. She calls these the Brand Connectome. These networks are malleable. People can be influenced to change their minds. Leslie’s work demonstrates how and the results are visible.
She applies these same instinctual lessons to some of the most crucial, systemic issues of our time and helps companies understand the roots of unconscious bias. She is also working with social organizations to tackle racism.
