10 out of 10 things to consume to get absolutely incredible at marketing, but they get progressively more niche. First is Acquired. This podcast is the good of all brand breakdowns. Second, Zag by Marty Neumeier. The market is so saturated today, and this book teaches you how to create a brand with a distinct story. Third, positioning by Al Reis. This book teaches you exactly how to create a distinct position within your consumer's mind. Fourth, Magazine Better. This Korean publication goes behind the scenes at some of the world's most famous brands. Fifth, Arena. It's getting harder to find good visual references that aren't already saturated. That's where Arena comes in. Sixth, depth to stock. Yes. This is an Instagram page for a business, but they produce some really interesting insights into culture today. Seventh, the future of marketing by Oren John. Marketing isn't what it was a year or even six months ago. This YouTube video breaks down all the changes that are happening right now. Eighth, art direction techniques by Jason Murray. This is an excellent video on building a foundation in art and creative direction. Ninth, art direction of modern streetwear by Orangeon. Yes. This is a video highlighting streetwear, but these principles can be applied to any category of brand. And tenth, I definitely follow this account by Joey m. He's basically taught me everything I know about using AI to design good brand creative. Follow me for more resources on brand and creativity.
