What a CEO's "ignore the media" message teaches about brand communication

The headline behind this post refers to an internal message in which Elon Musk told Tesla staff to push for a record quarter and to disregard negative press coverage, while the company described changes to its operations. The specific figures and outcomes belong to that moment and have long since passed. The communication pattern, though, is worth studying for any business that has to manage its own story under pressure.

Internal messages rarely stay internal

Memos to employees are often written as if only the team will read them. At a high-profile company, they frequently reach journalists within hours. For smaller businesses the scale is different, but the principle holds: anything sent to staff, suppliers or partners can end up in front of customers. Write internal updates assuming they may be quoted, and keep the tone you would be comfortable seeing in public.

Telling people to ignore criticism is not a strategy

Encouraging a team to stay focused is reasonable. Dismissing outside coverage altogether can backfire, because it suggests the company has no answer to the questions being asked. A stronger approach is to acknowledge concerns briefly, state what is changing and explain why, then point to concrete actions. Clear facts calm customers more effectively than defiance.

Owned channels matter more than ever

Large brands that skip traditional advertising rely heavily on founders' social media, product launches and word of mouth. That works when the message is consistent, but it concentrates risk in a single voice. For a small business in Bogotá or anywhere else, it is safer to build several owned channels:

  • A website with up-to-date information on services and changes
  • A newsletter or messaging list for loyal customers
  • Social profiles that share the same core message in every post
  • A shop window or physical display that reflects the current campaign

Applying the lesson

When operations shift, such as new hours, a revised product line or a restructured team, announce it plainly, explain the benefit to the customer and repeat the same message everywhere. That is the shop-window clarity we aim for in our marketing services, and it is a recurring theme in our workshops on crisis-ready communication.
