Zambezi reposted this
At #Brandweek, there was no denying that music emerged as an integral part of sports marketing. Bryan Biniak, president and chief marketing officer at Songtradr, and Gavin Lester, partner and CCO at Zambezi, explored strategies behind successful sports campaigns that leveraged music. They revealed emerging data that confirmed music's key role in scoring big for brands, highlighting the powerful synergy between sports and sound in marketing strategies. "Typically, the music isn’t on the front end – there’s not a music strategy, it’s how does it fits into the story? And unfortunately, it’s also “how much money do we have left?” But the reality is it should be in the beginning and really help shape the creative, especially when artists are influencers. Artists have fans and can connect with audiences immediately," said Biniak.

We love working with great partners, and are excited to be part of the growth of Once Upon a Farm! 👩🌾 🚀
Last night our first ever Once Upon a Farm national linear broadcast TV ad ran on America's Got Talent. We've worked for years to build this brand with quality organic, high velocity & repeat products in wide national distribution. Now it's time to make many, many millions more households aware. I'll share the journey and what happens with this community as it all plays out over the rest of this year. You'll be seeing this everywhere, linear, streaming, online & up and down our funnel. It's a major bet behind our already fast growing brand, for benefit of consumers, all our retailers, and the categories we compete in. Please wish us luck and good vibes as we go for it. Thanks! #emergingbrands #cpg #organic
