17 FEB 2021 · We're thrilled to share this week's episode with you. We're joined by Mark Williams-Cook, who is the Director at Candour - an amazing web & digital marketing agency based in Norwich. Mark is also the Founder of AlsoAsked.com, organiser of SearchNorwich, and our go-to person for SEO news. So, we think he's the perfect guest to talk about technical SEO with.
We know that technical topics can get a bit overwhelming for generalist marketers and business owners that wear many hats. So, we thought it would be a great idea to release a podcast episode that covers technical SEO in detail without getting too complex. We ask Mark to break down some of the fundamental reasons why solid technical SEO can help websites in their search efforts. Mark also shares tips on how to run a site audit, common mistakes to avoid, and why it's important to get the foundations right. He also shared several examples that will help marketers in B2B and B2C.

10 FEB 2021 · We're very excited to share episode 64 of the podcast with you. This week we chat with Andy Duggan, who is a chartered marketer that has worked in roles at BP, The Co-op bank, Zen Internet, and more. So, Andy brings lots of marketing experience to the show.Â
A few weeks ago, Andy shared a post on LinkedIn that talked about why brands need to cut weak influencers from their outreach strategy. His post focused on the UK government's decision to spend £63,000 on paying 42 social media influencers to post about the UK Test and Trace app for COVID-19. We thought that his post would make for a great podcast episode.
During the episode, Andy talks us through that post and shares his thoughts on why brands need to change their influencer marketing strategy. He talks about the importance of finding the middle ground between having brand ambassadors and paying for one-off posts. We asked Andy to share how he would approach setting up an influencer campaign and he also shared some examples of brands that have used influencers both successfully and poorly. We love that Andy left nothing on the table during this episode and we're confident that all of our listeners will gain value from this episode, whether you work directly with influencers or not!

Neil is a leading figure in the PPC industry and regularly shares content around bidding strategies, account set up, fraud prevention, and more.
During the episode, we talk about a very interesting and somewhat controversial topic. Neil joins us to discuss industry awards and his opinion of the industry.

Around 400 people voted on the poll, with a landslide number of people stating that they think the industry is pay to win. We discuss Neil's views, some of the inconsistencies in the industry, and whether or not they are ultimately worth entering. We also speak about some alternative ways of showcasing your business via social proof.
