Made Possible

Episode 1: Brands In Culture

"If you're on trend, there's a very high risk of being off trend very quickly. Being part of culture is being part of people's lives."

— Jordanne Young, Enid

What does it actually mean to be a brand in culture? It's a question clients bring to briefs constantly — and one the industry doesn't always answer honestly, or at least clearly. In our first episode of Made Possible, Parkview Creative founder Rachel Dyson sits down with two brand specialists who grapple with this question every day.

Guests

In this episode we cover:

• What culture actually means — and why it's harder to define now than ever
• The difference between being on trend and being part of someone's life
• Why good strategy is fundamental when you need to move fast
• How brands build content engines — and whether they should
• The case for longer, braver creative ideas over short-lived campaigns
• Why the people in the room matter as much as the brief
• Whether a brand can genuinely shape culture — or can only be riding the wave
