From listening to leading: what this Independent’s political campaign gets right about marketing with Phil Scott
This candidate is campaigning like a marketer—and it’s working.
In this episode of Got Marketing?, Mia sits down with Phil Scott, a community independent running for federal office in the NT, to unpack what it actually takes to build a grassroots campaign that works. No party machine, no spin—just bold strategy, radical trust, and a whole lot of door knocking.
From kitchen table conversations to joyful viral videos, this episode is a behind-the-scenes look at how good marketing principles are being used to rewrite the rules of modern campaigning.
If you’ve ever wondered what a marketing-first approach to politics could look like—or how real listening builds real momentum—this conversation will fire you up.
🎧 Enjoy the episode, and if you’ve got thoughts, we’d love to hear them. Leave an honest review: three lucky reviewers in April will win a copy of How Brands Grow by Byron Sharp (winners chosen randomly).
What you’ll learn in this episode:
✨ How to build a campaign using radical trust and community-driven strategy
✨ What grassroots campaigning has in common with startup marketing
✨ The real story behind the "teal" label—and why Phil rejects it
✨ What independents actually do in Parliament
✨ Why big party bureaucracy is failing small businesses (and what to do instead)
✨ The unexpected tactics that helped this campaign go viral (hint: there’s singing involved)
