Let’s talk… Brexit?!

Hello {{first_name | there}} ,

Why am I emailing you about Brexit?

To be honest, I was giving it zero thought until I was invited onto the Marketplace Universe podcast to talk about it.

I have a fascinating chat with hosts Ingrid Lommer and Valerie Dichtl, getting into:

  • Why we don’t talk about brexit in business in the UK much anymore

  • Why Covid had a much bigger impact at the time and now

  • How the UK marketplace arena is evolving

  • and a lot more - these ladies really know how to dig in with the questions!

You can catch it all on YouTube here, and do let me know what you think - I’m still not sure I really hit the nail on the head with this one…

Keep Optimising!

Brand new episode: Dan Major, Major CFO Consulting

Until this week, I’ve always refused to have finance people on the podcast.

Because finance is boring? NO!

Because our listeners are all over the world and most finance guests want to talk about tax breaks, or accounting - which are all country specific.

But Dan is different, Dan is the sort of CFO who helps a store grow - so it’s a pleasure to finally (after over a decade) have an episode about money.

Thanks Dan!

Most AI content is fascinating. None of it is useful.

You’ve read the AI breakdowns. Watched the million AI explainers. Nodded along to the hot takes.

And then opened a blank doc and had no idea what to actually do.
