When Customers Don't Tell the Truth | Classics with Kathryn McGarvey
Podcast:Brushwood Media Network Published On: Sat Jan 24 2026 Description: What if your customer research is missing the emotional truth because you're stuck on surface facts? Kathryn McGarvey joins me to discuss the kid’s book, Adrian Simcox Does NOT Have a Horse + why sometimes the "lies" customers tell reveal more than cold demographics. We discuss how to dig past the first answer + why one client's sweary customers led to 900% signup increases. Plus, why being kind beats being right + how Chloe's mum delivers a masterclass in strategic empathy. Look for more Classics episodes where we take stories that definitely aren't business books + treat them as full-on business texts.
