BrandTalk is primarily call–in based (think executive–brand coaching for the business owner, entrepreneur or career-minded / Car Talk for people / the Suze Orman of practical branding) in which Dr. Tantillo listens to callers’ issues and then helps them with specific branding advice.


The call–ins are supplemented by segments in which "successful" brands in business, entertainment, politics are interviewed, brand winners and losers are chosen and evaluated, brands in the news and great brands of history discussed and all of the preceding is enlivened by Dr. Tantillo’s warmth, intelligence and infectious personality.


Development, format, broadcast and more show material is available upon request.
