Today I talked to James Hurman about his new book Future Demand: Why Building Your Brand among Tomorrow’s Customers Is the Key to Start-Up Success (Previously Unavailable, 2022).

Marketers aren’t always very good at marketing, ironically enough, as today’s guest candidly admits. Among the most amorphous terms tends to be branding, for which James Hurman has a pithy, memorable and very practical definition: “The simple idea at the heart of a company,” an idea that informs all the decisions the company subsequently makes. To succeed, what’s necessary? Clarity and an animating purpose, certainly, as well as at least two other key qualities. The first is not giving in to short-term thinking, whereby the pursuit of profit and the churning rotation of ever new campaign ideas mean that nothing gets the chance to sink in and resonate with the target market. Second, the need to develop a sense of what emotional space or category you’re operating in as a company. In other words, what emotion are you “selling” or nurturing, e.g., in the way that Dove emphasizes inclusivity.

James Hurman is the founding partner of the innovation studio Previously Unavailable and the co-founder and director of TrackSuit, a brand health tracking company. An award-winning ad agency planning director, James is also the author of a previous book, The Case for Creativity: The Link Between Innovative Marketing and Commercial Success.
