In this episode, I'm joined by Rick Wittenbraker the CMO at Howler Brothers. We chat about how the pandemic has affected Howler and how they've chosen to respond to it. Rick shares his perspective on why staying true to your brand through times of duress will lead to success.
From the episode:
"We need to still be us, we can't all of a sudden become something we aren't."
"It wasn't tough [for us to help] the inventory wasn't going to make or break us, we're helping our community and at the end of the day that's why it's brothers plural."
"Being nimble, not thinking you have the answers, being willing to adapt, these are all things that at any moment under duress, I think are opportunities for someone to not just survive, but thrive."

In 2020, Port Side Productions launched this podcast to address a challenge we were facing ourselves: understanding how to make video content that was not only creative but truly effective.
What started as a search for answers has taken us on a journey through nearly 200 episodes, exploring every facet of the outdoor marketing world. Along the way, we didn’t realize that this podcast was helping shape our own approach to creating video work that actually delivers the results our clients need.
Now, our goal is to take you behind-the-scenes with experts from the outdoor industry as they share the secrets to producing creative work that delivers. If you’re seeking insights from some of the sharpest minds in the business, you’ve come to the right place. And if you're ready to take things further and need a guide to help you create effective video work, don’t hesitate to reach out and say hello.
