Most brands are just beating their chests.
Bragging about their organic ingredients, posturing about their benevolent charity efforts, yammering about their innovative technology, posturing about their third round of funding and raving about their company culture.

Smart brands champion their causes through other people’s feats and bravery.

Take that, Tarzan.
