Chris Phyland is back with a fresh dose of radical honesty, and this time the marketing brief is his target. Phylo argues that AI can now distill 'the situation' so effectively that the traditional brief, often skewed by human opinions and agendas, becomes completely unnecessary (foaming toilet brush, anyone?!). At TBPC, we don't just take a brief. If yours is packed with anything other than the real strategic problem, it's time for a different conversation. Dive into Phylo's full take on "The Imaginary Concept of the Brief" and discover why it's no longer required. #Marketing #CPG #AI #TheEndofMaybe #StrategicPartnership #Briefs #SalesCertainty #StopGuessingStartGrowing
The concept of the marketing brief is no longer required, should not be suggested, and was flawed from the beginning. Here is why AI has confirmed what we always suspected. What is a brief supposed to be? Deriving from the Latin word ‘brevis' it means as you would expect, short. In military parlance, it's a briefing on the situation, and that is the same in marketing. Here is the situation for you to react to… Enter the SITUATION. We needed a brief because the situation was very hard for the human brain to get their head around in a short space of time. Research, along with many and varied components make up this situation. In our view we think there are around 15 different categories that may contribute such as price, awareness, distribution, function, research, needs/wants etc all often quite unique to the product itself. There are a couple of highly important elements including zero party data sets TBPC use as part of this, but that is for another story. So, we needed a short summary of the situation. And then we have the world now. With the right agentic teams and LLM’s now operational at a level approaching human, you can combine what is known in the world and publicly available, with what you know yourself and is proprietary to you, your brand, your company, in minutes. The world gets very small, very quickly, and can be summarized and organized in an instant. Word of warning - just remember everyone else can do this too. So why, now, do we need a brief? You don’t. There's devil in the detail as to “The situation”. Most importantly what do you know that differentiates your awareness of the situation vs someone else’s? We have built that into our machine and can talk to it at length, but rest assured differentiated insight will decide 90% of your success. A brilliant creative idea will not deliver a business outcome if it is based on the wrong raw information. Example of the situation not being tight, was a major global brand, who launched a toilet brush with a foaming spray built in. Seems obvious right? We created an ad. People bought tons of them. Guess what happened? The spray ran out and people just kept using them as toilet brushes. Guess where the manufacturer was going to make their money? The refills. Hilarious. Expensive. And a cautionary tale on why briefs were flawed before AI. Go back to the military scenario and insert the word OPINION. Human nature allows us to construct our version of the brief, which is a summary of all the important information vital to business success. Often with vested interests in the hope of a certain outcome (awards at Cannes, the want to use a certain supplier, the budget it has to meet or need). Can you imagine the response from the senior military officer? “Nobody asked you for your opinion, sonny.” So, a brief is at least now, imaginary and not required. Yet I bet we let it live on for a while. Phylo #Marketing #CPG #AI

Most people check their phone 144 times a day. That isn’t a typo. It’s a battle for attention that most of us are losing, especially in the chaos of December. We trade deep focus for shallow scrolling and wonder why we feel so overwhelmed. One of our own, Rod Podesta recently did the opposite. He spent 20 hours in complete silence. No tech, no books, no distractions. Just a 2x2 meter square and raw discipline, alongside almost 300 others. He didn't do it to escape the world. He did it to raise funds for 20Talk and draw attention to youth mental health in Australia. "It was a beautiful, powerful moment to reconnect with myself by being fully present, free from distractions. I strongly recommend everyone take some time each day (it doesn’t have to be 20 hours!) to disconnect from devices and be mindful of the present moment," said Rod of his experience. Rod’s story is a powerful reminder that real impact isn’t about being the loudest voice in the room, but the clearest. It’s not about doing more, but doing what matters.

Phylo, our CEO (aka Chris Phyland), cuts right to the heart of what truly drives lasting value in life and in business - especially pertinent in a world of rapid AI acceleration. His piece on the 'relentless chase' versus building where you stand delivers a uncomfortable truth. It's also why we believe certainty and real growth come from developing meaningful relationships, not just chasing the 'next big thing.' This is the radically honest approach that defines The Brand Power Company: challenging assumptions to deliver 'The End of Maybe'. #TheEndOfMaybe #RadicalHonesty #AI #LeadershipInsights #CareerGrowth #StrategicThinking
One of my favourite sayings was when a mate said to me once: “Never leave a good time to find a good time, Phylo!”. Credit to Jono Barlow, his dad, and whoever said it first…likely centuries ago. Truer words have never been spoken. It's endlessly relevant, this phrase. Hits home in so many aspects of life. The party? You left it. Because the next one promised cooler people. The bar? Pumping, but you just knew the next one would be even better. The car? Perfectly fine. But the next one? Oh yes, the next one will be SO much better. The shoes. The haircut. The friend group. The school. The girlfriend. The restaurant. The relentless chase. That "next big and better thing". I just. Can't. Wait. And, to be honest, some of those things did turn out to be a better time. But statistically? Most of the time, disappointment reigned. We all know it. For me though, where this really hits home, is in business and career.Embarrassingly or maybe to my credit, depending on the day – I've been with the same company for 23 years. Yikes. "Started at the bottom, now a little bit above the bottom," as that famous tweet once joked. Rightly or wrongly, and this isn't me saying stay somewhere forever, it's fair to say it's worked out ok. But that’s not the point. The point is, things didn't always go perfectly. Still don't. Hard things are hard. The key? Knowing they're hard everywhere. So, don't just chase. Learn to acknowledge the good times you've got. And if things feel stale, because they will, it’s human nature – don't bolt. Re-shuffle the deck. Reinvent that wheel for yourself. Your team. Your whole damn career. Your project. Whatever it is, look for the potential right there, in front of you. At your own company. You’re in the front row. Don’t be a stranger on the next train. The grass? It's rarely greener. Odds wise, I'd suggest a lot of the good people we've had over the years, the ones who left a good time to find that better time, ended up realizing it wasn't such a good time at all. Job hopping often results early stage “progression” of salary and title. The issue arises when employees then hit an impenetrable ceiling, preventing them from truly senior roles. This is due to a lack of material traction, relationships, experience etc that tenure often brings. In short, mid-level purgatory. So, what made me think of all this now? As AI accelerates and the human value proposition continues to change, personal relationships and trusted connections? They will absolutely trump transience. Tenfold. Phylo
