Welcome to Inclusion and Marketing, the show that’s all about helping you win the attention, adoration, and loyalty of more consumers, especially those with differences that are often ignored by brands.
I’m your host, Sonia Thompson, a marketer and someone with a lot of differences.
Let’s get to it.
Customer success doesn’t happen at the same rate for everyone. The customers you serve with differences, including those who are BIPOC, often have external factors that negatively impact their journey to success. The good news is, you have the power to implement products, services, and experiences that pave the way for a greater degree of success for your BIPOC customers and others with differences.
In this episode, Natalia Sanyal, an anti-oppressive copywriter and brand strategist talks about an approach she’s taken to make her BIPOC customers feel seen, cared for, and have a greater likelihood of both enjoyment and success with her programs.
Her approach is one that can be replicated and adapted to fit your business needs and the consumers you serve.
Key Points

- The burden and awkwardness often come with being the only one or one of a few like you in a room in professional setting.
- Common struggles people from marginalized communities experience when they are the only one or one of a few like them in professional settings.
