  • Wrong Instagram handle

    Please change the Instagram handle in podcast notes from ChangeOfBrand to AChangeOfBrand. For a podcast that requires pictures, an inaccurate Instagram handle on the podcast note indicates lack of attention to detail.

  • Incredibly insightful and fun!

    The depth and dimension of these interviews and the insight they give to how these branding projects are conceived and completed is truly invaluable to creative professionals. This is a sort of peek under the hood into huge projects that we otherwise wouldn’t get this kind of a detailed behind-the-scenes look at. It’s informative, helpful, and fun at the same time with stories of a whole rebranding effort and the ups and downs of navigating that process.

    Really excited for the next season!
