Billy Broas

In this episode of the Marketing Spark podcast, I talk to Billy Broas, a leading messaging expert, about the crucial role of messaging in marketing. 

We discuss why businesses often undervalue messaging and how strategic messaging can significantly impact customer engagement and conversion rates.

Billy introduces his ‘Five Light Bulbs’ framework, which helps businesses develop and implement effective core messaging. 

We explore the importance of understanding the customer’s pain points, differentiating from competitors, and using a unique approach to improve messaging. 

The conversation also covers how to recognize and address messaging problems and the metrics to measure the success of improved messaging. Here’s the timeline.
