Building a Brand That Feels Real with Megan Matthews – Part 1 (Ep. 54)

What do your clients feel when they think about your brand?

Megan Matthews has spent over 20 years helping companies answer that question with honesty and precision. In this conversation, she joins Alex and John to unpack how branding isn’t just a logo, tagline, or marketing campaign; it’s a living story built on trust, consistency, and emotional connection.

This episode explores how brands grow, stumble, and evolve through leadership shifts, family legacy, bold marketing moves, and moments that define what they stand for.

Here’s what to expect:

  • Why PR became the next big wave after the “Mad Men” era
  • How family businesses carry both a legacy and a weight of expectation
  • What separates a feeling-first brand from a forgettable one
  • Why some bold marketing campaigns work and others crash and burn
  • And more!
