Ryan Lee - Building Brands, Cultivating Communities, And '80s Movies

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Today’s guest is someone who’s been in the industry since the late 90’s which is when we discovered Ryan Lee and have followed his work since then. We love how he tells it like it is in the marketing world. He’s the founder of</span> <a href="https://freedym.com/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Freedym</span></a><span style= "font-weight: 400;">, a free community that is basically the Netflix of marketing and entrepreneurship. We, along with a bunch of other high-level entrepreneurs have contributed content to his membership area.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">On today’s show, we talk about how to dial in your branding to build a cohesive brand for your business. We also talk about how to build a community around your brand, even if your brand is a physical product or a more boring brand. Plus we chat all about email marketing, Ryan’s obsession with the 80’s and how to inject the things you love in your personal life into your marketing and business. Ryan is a ball of energy and we know you’ll have as much fun as we did during this interview.
