“Puzzle Podcast with Manuela” episodes 3 & 4 are available on the Puzzle Consulting YouTube channel. In these two episodes, we have covered two very interesting topics: Episode 3: 500 EUR vs 500,000 EUR in marketing Episode 4: How we really choose brands   In episode 3, we talk about the real differences between marketing for small businesses and large systems - through practical examples from working with entrepreneurs and corporations. We ask some of the key questions - such as how to make marketing decisions when you do not have a budget, is ‘brand awareness’ a luxury or a necessity and what small businesses can learn from big ones - and vice versa.   In episode 4, we talked about how people make purchasing decisions much more often based on emotions than with rational thinking. Although we like to believe that we choose products based on price, quality, or functionality, the reality is that decision-making is usually made intuitively and very quickly, and the...

In the second episode of the "Puzzle Podcast with Manuela", we delve into a topic that decides the success of a business: Brand Development   Manuela Stamatovic introduces us to the segments that help us understand what it is that really makes a brand strong and long-lasting. That is why we have asked her the following questions, getting answers that are important to both marketers and leaders: Why is it not enough today to just have a superior product? What differentiates a long-lasting brand from one that is just a current trend? Why does authenticity without strategy lead to chaos? How can (and must) leaders be part of building a brand, not just the marketing team?   If you want to understand how a brand is built strategically, long-term, and in the service of the business - then this episode is for you: https://youtu.be/ZRLzw1AqIE4?si=hGTI5ArIuJ1rR5Wb   👉 And the best way not to miss any new Puzzle Podcast episode is through the subscribe button on our YouTube...
