[REPLAY] How to Become a Marketing Strategy Expert (Starting from Scratch)
Download MP3I've just launched a new YouTube channel!! The concept? I take real businesses struggling to stand the f*ck out, provide my positioning/branding/lead gen help, and record it all for YouTube. The first mini-series features three freelance marketers (copywriter Rob, ecommerce designer Laura, and non-fiction book coach Vicky).
I hope you'll set aside half an hour to watch it through. Maybe with your morning coffee? Or lunch break? Or evening onion soup? And then, the usual "Subscribe, Like, Share" would go a long, long way too.
In this episode, you will learn how to set up a one-year strategic marketing plan and lead your team to success.
My guest today is Kevan Lee, the Director of Marketing at Buffer. Tune in to hear us discuss your big picture gameplan, how to lead a team effectively, and Kevan's personal career path.
