Tom Eymundson is a sonic branding strategist and a partner, CEO and driving force behind the ongoing evolution of Pirate Group Inc. In this first part of our discussion, we break down Tom’s three step process for serving his clients and discuss some of the background that led him to create sonic brands for a wide variety of companies.  He’s super knowledgeable and I can’t wait for you to hear his perspective on the importance of having a strategic sonic brand.  You can find Pirate at www.piratetoronto.com.

We discuss:

  • The change in creating music for audio branding from orchestras to now Tom being the trackmaster
  • The “magic” of adding music to a commercial and how it completely changes people’s reactions 
  • The story of the closing of Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto
  • How layering music with storytelling and the visual component leads to an emotional connection
  • The evolution into his current process when creating sonic logos
  • Breaking down why some sonic identities stick and others don’t
