Summary
In July 2026, Nike is showing that a brand can survive—even thrive—after a major crisis. Lucas and Luna dissect how the sportswear giant weathered a high-profile scandal by leaning into transparency, athlete partnerships, and community-driven marketing. They trace the playbook from the 2025 misstep to the 2026 rebound, with specific metrics like a 12 percent sales lift in the quarter ending May 2026 and the launch of a new sustainability initiative. Learn the three pillars of crisis brand management: owning the mistake, amplifying authentic voices, and tying recovery to mission. A masterclass in turning brand damage into brand depth. #Nike #BrandReinvention #CrisisManagement #MarketingStrategy #BrandStorytelling #Transparency #AthletePartnerships #Sustainability #Sponsorship #NikeRecovery #BrandResilience #Authenticity #ConsumerTrust #Marketing #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #BrandIdentity #Storytelling Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
