Key Takeaways:
“You use audio to make an emotional connection. And we don’t buy things based on logic; we buy based on emotion. So that’s why it’s so important in advertising and marketing and in just about everything you put out there.” – Jodi Krangle
“You can know someone on social media for years, follow their posts, read about them, and exchange messages. But the minute that you have an actual voice conversation with them, you get to know that person so much better than you ever did, and those many years following them on social media.” – Jodi Krangle
“It reaches us on such an emotional level. So I think that brands who are considering how they can make a deeper connection with their clients or their potential clients or their audience need to consider how we emotionally respond to stimuli. And audio is one of those things that just cut through everything.” – Jodi Krangle
“The way that people understand advertising marketing is that consistent repetition really wins the day. If you’re going to put together some kind of audio for your brand, have every video that you put out there, start with a certain sound or a certain little music piece.” – Jodi Krangle
“Humans get sound; they just understand it on this deeper level. And it will give you an impression of who someone is on a really deep level very quickly.” – Jodi Krangle
