Growth Mode:ON - Episode 5 - What’s Right, Not Who’s Right (Fix Creative vs Client Friction)

Описание: Are you having a hard time seeing eye-to-eye with your creative department?
In this episode of Growth Mode: ON, we break down the real reason creative work gets derailed: lack of trust + opinion-based feedback (“I just don’t like it”) that pulls brands off-course.

We unpack:
Why “the customer is always right” can quietly wreck creative decisions
How to shift from who’s right to what’s right
When to A/B test instead of arguing
Why going off-brand damages customer trust (even if the change “looks nice”)
The leadership mindset that helps teams move faster—without wasting budget

If you lead marketing, run a business, or manage creatives, this one will save you time, money, and headaches.

Question for you: What’s the most frustrating kind of feedback you’ve ever gotten on creative?
