She highlights a standout example from Anthropologie, demonstrating how brands can create a unified customer experience across digital and physical spaces. Whether you’re a marketing leader, UX strategist, or product manager, this episode is packed with actionable advice on aligning teams, integrating user feedback, and building a future-proof omnichannel strategy. Key Takeaways: ✅ Omnichannel vs. Multichannel: Many brands think they’re omnichannel, but they’re really just multichannel. Kate breaks down the difference and how to shift toward true integration. ✅ Anthropologie’s Success Story: Learn how this brand seamlessly blended physical and digital experiences to create a memorable, data-driven customer journey. ✅ User Feedback is the Secret Weapon: Discover how continuous user testing—before, during, and after a launch—helps brands fine-tune their strategies and avoid costly mistakes. ✅ Aligning Teams for Success: Cross-functional collaboration is critical. Kate shares tips on breaking down silos between marketing, product, and development teams. ✅ Emerging Tech & Omnichannel: Instead of chasing the latest tech trends, Kate advises businesses to define their strategic goals first—then leverage AI, AR, and other innovations to enhance the customer experience. Quotes from the Episode: 💬 "Omnichannel isn’t just about being everywhere; it’s about creating seamless bridges between every touchpoint a customer interacts with." – Kate MacCabe 💬 "Companies that truly listen to their users—through qualitative and quantitative insights—are the ones that thrive in today’s competitive landscape." – Kate MacCabe Resources & Links: 🔗 Learn more about Flywheel Strategy 🔗 Connect with Kate MacCabe on LinkedIn 🔗 Explore UserTesting for customer insights for marketers…

Hello skeletons! This week on the podcast, we are joined by Judson Cowan, who you might know if you've been following Souls stuff for awhile.

NEW EPISODE OUT OF NOWHERE! My good friend Jason Killingsworth is Kickstarting a new edition of You Died, the book he and Keza MacDonald wrote about Dark Souls back in 2016. You Died is a celebration of Dark Souls, and contains stories, anecdotes, and lore about the game. It was an inspriation for this podcast, and I'm not just saying that because I'm in it, I promise!

DGUS Remastered - Sean aka The Lore Hunter 1:01:24

6 years назад1:01:24

1:01:24

Hello skellies! If you haven't been following me on Twitter or on the recently closed Patreon, I have some news. My original plan after putting DGUS on hiatus was to begin recording and releasing "remastered" episodes, in which I'd re-interview some of the original guests of the show and see how things have changed. I recorded one of these, which you are hopefully listening to right now, and since then have decided to shut down the Patreon. I don't have any direct plans to record more of these, but if I do they'll be publicly available on this feed. All of that aside, the guest is my friend Sean, who releases content under the moniker The Lore Hunter. Sean is a lore junkie, as you might imagine, and in the three years since we recorded the first time his life has gone through many changes. He has more kids, he bought a house...the usual stuff. Also: his Souls content began to get way more popular than usual. Popularity is a good thing right? Not always. As Sean tells us in this episode, sometimes it can lead to all sorts of unusual places.
