Wavemaker's James Hier interviews founder and director at MyBudget, Tammy Baron; Kayla Itsines' Sweat CEO Tobi Pearce and Coopers Brewery chairman Glenn Cooper.
These three organisations are completely disparate, but they have one thing in common – each is marketing-led.
Baron outlined how a focus on making sure its customer value proposition was front and foremost in its marketing, led to a surge in growth for her company.
“It’s not just that marketing has a direct impact on growth, it’s that the right marketing has a direct impact on growth,” she says.
For Coopers, an Australian, family-owned brewery up against the multinational giants, marketing had to be unique, because they couldn't compete on dollars.
“We’re up against giant international breweries, really big ones that have a massive amount of money and a massive amount of marketing spend. So to us, the marketing became an issue that we had to be unique,” he explains.
“They’ve got massive boxing gloves, we’ve got little gloves.”
Influencer Kayla Itsines and and partner Tobi Pearce built a US$100 million fitness brand on social media. The company's CEO Pearce says it was built around four pillars: feasibility, profitability, scalability and sustainability.

This season of the show is being filmed in front of a live audience, with each episode filmed in a different metro state. This episode was filmed in Sydney. It will be filmed in Melbourne in May, in Perth in June and in Canberra in July.
