Diane Wiredu, Lion Words
“I always think of brand messaging as the backbone of marketing. The message strategy is at the core of what any business is. Things like your vision or brand purpose aren’t really messages that you’re gonna slap on your homepage because it doesn’t really resonate with the customer.”
Diane also mentions the ‘five stages of awareness’ approach inspired by a book called Breakthrough Advertising, which she regularly applies for the conversion copywriting process.

In this episode we talk about:
