John C. Maxwell famously said, “If you’re proactive, you focus on preparing. If you’re reactive, you end up focusing on repairing.” In today’s marketing landscape, this is more true than ever. In an insightful episode, Little Bird Marketing CEO Priscilla McKinney and Tony D’Amato, a dedicated leader with over 20 years of marketing experience, delve into the challenges and opportunities in the marketing ecosystem.

Tony emphasizes the importance of understanding and valuing the customer experience. He recounts D’Amato Management’s history, emphasizing the founder’s personal interactions with customers and the passion that drives the automotive appearance industry.

Companies often reach a point where they need to reassess their strategies and address critical issues that were neglected during their growth. These issues can range from underinvestment in marketing to a lack of clear marketing plans. A well-thought-out plan ensures that marketing efforts align with the company’s objectives and are sustainable in the long run.

“It has to be sustainable, or else what we do is for nothing.” – Tony D’Amato
