Most brands point the camera in the wrong place. Their best stories are buried on page 47 of an impact report no one reads.
Andy Keller sits down with Kevin Willard, owner of brand storytelling studio Assembly and a copywriter who has spent two decades helping organizations like American Forest Foundation, Ocean Conservancy, Hyatt, and Jack Daniels find stories that actually move people. They get into why brands are losing ground in the attention economy, what Huckberry and North Face are doing differently, and what to do when virgin material is cheaper than recycled content and you still want to make the right product.
What you’ll hear:
- Why most brand video gets ignored, and what the top 10% does differently
- How Huckberry built a YouTube channel reportedly worth around $450,000 by reallocating ad spend
- The story arc every piece of content needs (want, obstacle, overcome)
- “Great stories need enemies.” For ChicoBag, it’s plastic waste. What’s yours?
- Why decision by committee turns Rocky Road into vanilla
- Andy gets vulnerable about the virgin-versus-recycled material problem
- AI is sterilizing content. The brands that stay human are the ones that win.
If your brand is rethinking what your promotional products actually say about you, our custom program is built for the brands who care about the answer.
