In this episode, Kevin Oakley is joined by Beth Russell and Andrew Peek! The Masters is happening near Beth’s residence and Mercedes Benz is a huge sponsor so they have taken over her neighborhood and Beth discovered that Mercedes Benz contributed to the community development in order to do so. The team discusses the power that’s unleashed when businesses take advantage of their audience and work together with other businesses in a marketing setting. They dive into a deep discussion on “personas” and how they may no longer be relevant in the new home industry, suggesting it’s really a conversation about messaging and content.
