Your marketing might reach potential customers today, but will they remember your business when they're ready to buy?
Most small businesses focus on what customers see. But what about what they hear?
On this episode of the Glovisor Podcast, host Joe Abreu speaks with Jeff McQuilkin, composer and creator of Jetstream Sonic, about sonic branding and how a distinctive sound can help small businesses build recognition and stand out from competitors.
Think of the Netflix opening sound or a jingle you still remember from childhood. Jeff explains how businesses can develop their own audio identity, using original music designed to fit their brand, personality, and audience.
Jeff also shares how a flooring company used his original branded music in a local television campaign. According to Jeff, the company reported becoming top of mind in local polling within six months and generating $500,000 in revenue from the ad during that period.
The key takeaway? Marketing is not just about getting attention. It is about being remembered when someone needs what you offer.
If you're a small business owner, entrepreneur, content creator, or marketer, this conversation will help you consider how sound could become a more intentional part of your brand identity.
