Ever wondered how to truly connect with your audience and level up your marketing? In this episode, I sit down with Crystal Foote, CEO of Digital Culture Group, to talk about the power of targeted audience growth. Crystal shares her journey—from finding inspiration to taking action—and how she’s helping brands reach diverse audiences in a meaningful way.  

We dive into why understanding different audience segments is key and why one-size-fits-all marketing just doesn’t cut it. Crystal and I chat about using AI and automation to improve targeting while avoiding the pitfalls of oversimplifying audiences. Plus, we explore the impact of smart audio advertising and how it helps brands speak to multicultural households in a more personal way.  

We also get real about rejection and resilience in marketing. Crystal shares her take on staying strong, showing proof of your work, and bouncing back from setbacks. We touch on why diversity and representation matter—not just in advertising but in education too—and how seeing yourself in stories can be life-changing.  

Crystal’s passion and dedication to inclusivity shine through in this episode, making it a must-listen for anyone looking to grow their audience with authenticity and impact. Tune in for great insights, inspiring stories, and practical takeaways to transform your marketing approach!
