The Internal Marketing Podcast

Episode #14 - Building an Employer Brand with Employee Brand Advocacy (with Nate Guggia)

Episode Summary

A company's employer brand can make or break its ability to attract great talent. Nate Guggia shares how your employees sharing valuable content online can effectively build the kind of great employer brand you need, in a competitive recruiting and hiring space.

Episode Notes

The Great Resignation has shown that compensation and benefits are not the only things that people are using to evaluate which company they should work for.  Quality of life and working with a company that shares their personal values have now become an important part of the 'checklist' that job hunters use in their decision-making process.

In this episode, we're flipping the marketing conversation from 'external' to 'internal' with Nate Guggia, who will break down:

  1. Why company leadership needs to care about their employer brand;
  2. Popular strategies companies are now using to build a great employer brand, through employee brand advocacy;
  3. How employees sharing valuable content online is an efficient and effective way to build an employer brand; and
  4. What companies can do to engage and empower their employees to get started.

Thank you for listening; and please consider sharing this episode with anyone who would find it valuable. The next podcast episode will be published on Friday, December 10, 2021.
