The Brand Hunch

Balancing legacy with innovation: product development as a marketing lever

Episode Summary

In this episode of The Brand Hunch podcast, we chat to Revlon ANZ Marketing Director Amy Kingon Smith about the fine art of keeping a 92-year-old brand feeling fresh. From protecting classics to knowing when to shake things up, she shares how product development can double as a marketing superpower. We get into makeup-themed stunts, local ambassadors (shout out Delta Goodrem), and the not-so-glam side of brand building: consistency. It’s a candid look at how to keep legacy brands bold, relevant, and very much alive.
