Have you ever wondered what it takes to go viral? The answer might be less about luck and more about strategic, creative thinking. For many brands, coming up with new and exciting marketing ideas is a struggle. They often find themselves doing the same old things, which doesn't help them stand out or keep people interested. When everyone is fighting for attention, finding a unique way to connect with audiences is more important than ever. So how do you find the inspiration to try out fresh and inventive marketing ideas?

In today’s episode, hosts Dr. J.J. Peterson and April Sunshine Hawkins explore the innovative marketing behind the band Jungle’s latest album, Volcano. They’re joined by guest Charlie Di Placido, the director and collaborator behind the viral music videos that propelled Jungle into the spotlight. Discover how Jungle used the power of viral moments, leveraged strategic collaborations (including a new international campaign with Gap), and made an entire movie for their album to get people interested. These unique strategies offer valuable lessons for marketers looking to elevate their game. Tune in and learn how creativity, collaboration, and the courage to dream big can change the way you do marketing!
