Welcome to another great episode of The Stocki Exchange Marketing Show! On this episode, John is joined by Eric DeBoer from Grand Traverse Resort and Spa and John Paul Morris from Practical to talk about emotional marketing. Our guests provide some fascinating insight, so check it out!

 

The main focus this episode is on GT Resort and Spa’s new Get Up and Go campaign. Eric discusses the inspiration behind the idea, the process of pitching the idea to his bosses,  identifying and crafting a real and authentic message to get across, and ways GT Resort and Spa are looking to market in the future. John Paul talks about the process of actually filming the campaign, the influences that went into the video, and capturing the energy and experiences of Northern Michigan.

Later, John asks his guests about golf and their preferred equipment for filming during One Word Answers. In Ask The Stocki Exchange, John explains what brought him home after years of living and working abroad, and how new mobile technology is affecting how businesses market themselves and their products & services. To end the show, we give you all the usual social media info for our guests, and we give away some free golf!
