#Texans are extremely loyal to their favorite brands & it’s interesting to see how that plays out in times of #crisis. During the recent #snowmageddon, we witnessed some brands who emerged heroes – including @HEB, who has played the reputational long-game extraordinarily well.

Thanks to @sernational for hosting this Q&A yesterday! If there’s one thing I’ve learned about #entrepreneurship and business ownership, it’s to surround yourself with smart people who will tell you what need to hear, not what you want to hear…& to listen to them! #mentorship

Your company is #givingback to the community - and that's wonderful! But when you communicate your philanthropic efforts, are you coming off as holier-than-thou instead of humble? Watch this recent #SunwestPR Two Minutes segment with @craytonwebb for a few brand #messaging tips.

If you’ve watched #SunwestPR's other Two Minutes segments, you likely know the formula for responding to a negative story about your brand - apologize and take responsibility often top the list. But what do you do after the negative story comes out? Watch for five tips. #crisis
Throughout 2020, several brands have faced reputational #crisis - Ellen Degeneres & workplace culture, CrossFit & its CEO for making insensitive comments around #BLM...the list goes on. #SunwestPR CEO @craytonwebb discusses how brands can respond to a story once it's out.
