About this listen

In this episode of The Brand Forum, Jeremy Bloom (Marketecture Media co-founder, OhHello.ai founder) and Josh Palau (Media and AdTech executive and America’s favorite plus one) speak with Amy Benford, Head of Integrated Marketing for North America at Colgate-Palmolive. Amy walks us through her multifaceted career, from HBO to Campbell’s to leading marketing for some of the most recognizable CPG brands in the world. She reflects on what makes a brand resonate in today’s tech-driven, AI-saturated world and why performance marketing and long-term brand building aren't opposing forces—but partners. Amy also shares personal insights on mentorship, leadership, and how assembling the right team can shape a marketer’s growth. We also hear the story behind Colgate’s inclusive “Power of the Gap” campaign and how authenticity drives lasting impact.
