356 - Huxtaburger's Daniel Wilson on how sharing your knowledge can build you a tribe.

Daniel Wilson is a chef and co-founder of Huxtaburger, my favourite burger joint (everything in moderation , of course ;0). Huxtaburger is a very understated burger brand that’s in 5 quality locations around my hometown of Melbourne. A mighty fine Huxtaburger There’s a couple of things I love about the Huxtaburger brand - one is in its marketing. Specifically, Daniel has written a recipe book that step-by-step explains exactly how to make the world’s best burger. So, in theory, you could follow all his instructions and go in to direct competition. In theory. Listen in as we cover some serious marketing ground including: What makes Huxtaburger more than just another burger joint How Daniel and his friends went from working as chefs to opening their own restaurant Daniel's personal philosophy of doing what you love - whether that's cooking food you love or using your passions otherwise How Huxtaburger's name and classic menu came to be The unique challenges and benefits of starting a franchise How Huxtaburger's new brand refresh focuses the company on diversity Why Daniel wrote a book, The Huxtaburger Book, with the secrets to making a perfect burger The reason your brand experience is so important to creating an emotional attachment with customers But that’s not all.
