Episode Synopsis
Thomas Power
So yeah, I've met a lot of people and I've got a deep love of humans around the world, and an amazing connection, community and friendship and I still try and do, even now a 100 Zoom calls every month, so it gets through my 1000 a year, albeit, I missed the physical, I missed the flights, I miss the airports, the hotels, the formal shaking hands, the drinks, the beers, the conferences, the events. But I still, get through 1000 zooms every year so I can keep in touch with at least 1000 of that 33,000.
Martin Henley
Wow. And that's impressive. Okay so to bring a little bit of order to this. There are only four questions in this to typically keep us busy for like an hour and 15 minutes. The four questions are firstly, how are you qualified to talk to us about marketing. What is it that you do, how do you add value in the world. How do you feel about marketing, and then what is your recommendation for people in the current climate, you know, how should people be conducting themselves in a sales marketing kind of fashion right now, so I feel like all of this, how are you qualified is, you know, you build a network of 600 odd 1000 people this Ecademy thing so I feel like it's all gonna happen in the context of that and you are redoing it, but the thing I really liked about you is your commitment to actually engage, you built this huge online community where you clearly have like a really personal commitment to engaging with people face to face, or at least on video now. So, in that context, of course, the question is how are you qualified to talk to us about marketing?
