The Hero's Journey with Guest Matt Jones

Join us as we talk about the philosophy and framework of the hero’s journey, specifically in a branding/marketing context.   For your business, who should be the hero and why? A lot of brands mistakenly make their product the hero. The customer should be the hero, in reality.   Who is Joseph Campbell and will Jason watch the new Dune movie?    === About Our Guest: Matt Jones For over 20 years, Matt was a designer, builder, creator, and problem solver at GE Appliances. He’s managed teams to develop new brand engagements & experiences from trade shows to corporate events to the showroom floor. In the late 90s, while attending the University of Cincinnati’s Design, Art, & Architecture program, he quickly realized he was in the right building but not the right department. He then stumbled on a group of folks doing Industrial Design, and the rest is history. === About The Podcast The NerdBrand Podcast is the intersection of nerd culture, branding, and marketing.
