GoPro didn't just sell cameras - they started a movement! Founded in 2002, GoPro wasn't your typical camera company. They legitimately changed the game when it comes to capturing EPIC moments. They didn't just market a camera, they marketed a tool to capture life's craziest moments. But what really set them apart? In a word... Authenticity. Yes the look was polished but what was shot was not - also it was prescribed or scripted content – it was real, unfiltered, and genuine. GoPro went beyond selling a product; they sold a dream. They empowered customers to be storytellers, turning their authentic voices into the ultimate marketing magic. They started a revolution in storytelling and authenticity. Thoughts?

This is helpful because we are also aiming for a movement, not revenue or headcount, in The Master's Program. So, I'm taking away from this that the stories of those living extraordinary lives need to be held up to showcase as kindling for this. Thanks, Billy Samoa Saleebey!

I wasn’t aware of there marketing but makes complete sense. The contention between customer experience and marketing message is very clever.But simple at the same time. Thanks Billy .
