Album 1 Track 9 – Carol Kruse, Former ESPN CMO, Multiple Board Member, Award Winner, BAWSE - Your brand is your experience is your brand is your experience!

Pause the action in your insanely busy lives and listen to true BAWSE Carol Kruse as she spits gold bar after gold bar of straight knowledge. Here’s a taste of what Carol blesses us with: Are you marketing BRAVE? Are you driving business value AND brand love? Are you afraid to make the tough and unpopular calls (like for real, for real)? Are you giving people room to make mistakes? Do you ignore your Spidey senses? That’s dumb. Really dumb. Is your Brand trapped in the land of Speeds and Feeds? Have you EARNED the right to lead? And finally, in the spirit of keeping it 100, some marketers are not good business people (sorry, not sorry). In the world of Hollywood, they celebrate and shower the best with awards such as Oscars and Golden Globes. In the marketing world, Carol is one of our best and has been equally celebrated and showered with myriad awards (too many to name Brand Nerds). But it’s not her awards that impress per sé, it’s her mind and her ability to effectively lead and drive results.
