In episode 072 I was hosted by Filiberto Amati on his Growth, Brands and More Podcast.

We discuss the fundamental principles of building brands from the bottom up, the importance of having a clear and consistent strategy, and how to execute it successfully across different markets and channels. I also talk about the value of small empirical experiments, the balance between strategy and execution, and how to handle unexpected opportunities.
