That Marketing Dude was founded by me, Luke Benjamin Thomas, a world traveler, digital nomad and motor mouth. I help digital nomads and location independent entrepreneurs, and those aspiring to become either, to build businesses that allow them to focus more on travel.

I started this podcast because I was sick of listening to the same type of shows... So I created something different. I bring on guests as "co-hosts", not to interrogate them. I publish 3 shows a month talking about a specific topic related to business or travel and 1 episode a month purely on travel stories.

With inspiration from people like; Pat Flynn and Smart Passive Income, Chris Ducker at Youpreneur, John Lee Dumas for EOFire, Josh and Jill Stanton from Screw The Nine to Five, Tim Ferriss and his 4 Hour Work Week book AND of course sprinkle in some awesome travel stories like you see at Extra Pack of Peanuts and Zero To Travel... I think I've created a rather unique show!

Subscribe and get the most interesting business and travel podcast in your ear holes every week.

    Making Sure Your Launch Goes Smoothly Whilst You’re On The Road with Jessica Rodriguez

    What's up dudes and dudettes! today I have the awesome Jessica Rodriguez on the show to show us how we can make sure our product launches, well any launch really, runs as smooth as possible whilst we're on the road!

    Jessica Rodriguez is a Business and Visibility Strategist, Podcast Host, and founder of the #daydreamachievers™ movement - helping purpose-driven women scale their online business to six figure years, without compromising the life they truly want in order to do so.

    Within the first year of her business, she went from working 4 jobs and carrying $120k worth of debt to replacing her income to become a full-time lifestyle entrepreneur- along with becoming completely consumer debt free just a few years later.

    Through her 1:1 work and her Achievers Circle membership community, she has committed herself to helping women create their own freedoms in life - both personally and financially.

    When she’s not helping people create massive growth in their online business, you can find her curled up on the couch with her husband and furbabies Netflix binging or travelling to the next adventure life brings.

    But there's no curling up today... Just straight fire with some awesome knowledge bombs!

    Adventures of An Avid Traveller and "Pisco Tasting in Chile" with Amy Schwartz

    Adventures of An Avid Traveller and "Pisco Tasting in Chile" with Amy Schwartz

    What's up Dudes and Dudettes! Episode 4 is here and it's with my new friend Amy Schwartz and we're diving into some of her crazy adventures as an avid traveller!

    Amy is the loyal but mischievous friend who convinced you to go nightswimming, sing in math class, eat too many mangoes, tell the whole truth, start the dance floor, stand up for justice, show some love and take the plane rather than the job. Her secret-not-secret passion is finding herself at home everywhere: from a 43 ft sailboat en route from Cape-Town to Florida, to the local matriarch’s front lawn on Easter Island, a first-edition VW bus in Argentine Patagonia, a raft on the Karnali river in Nepal, a bike in the Peruvian Amazon, a makeshift mat in an ‘untouchables’ village in Madhya Pradesh, her hammock-tent on a Mozambiqe beach, and next to more surf-breaks than she cares to admit to.

    Before launching Unleash - a remote-working experience for surfers with wanderlust, Amy was a specialist in creating healthy and active places that you’d like to linger in, developing government policy for community-led sustainable energy and guiding outdoor adventure tours. She’s gotten accolades as an Agent of Change by the Halifax Chamber of Commerce and as a top 50 Under-40 entrepreneurial leader by 21inc.

    Amy sent me a huge list of potential stories we could have talked about and it was a huge task to condense it all down to just 30-40 minutes! I think Amy will need to make a re-appearance!

    Let me know in the comments down below if we inspired you to travel to any place in particular!

    Enjoy!

    *fist bump*

    IN THIS EPISODE WE COVER:

    - Hitchhiking through Patagonia, Argentina... And the weird guy who picked Amy and her friend up.
    - The place to visiting in Brazil if you want to experience the carnaval... Hint: It's not Rio.
    - How the Drinking Games Bible came into existence in Fiji

    Building Relationships With People On The Road For Both Business and Pleasure with Michelle Weinstein

    Building Relationships With People On The Road For Both Business and Pleasure with Michelle Weinstein

    In today's episode, Michelle Weinstein and I talk about Building Relationships With People On The Road For Both Business and Pleasure. Michelle has some high profile clients (like NFL teams) she's managed to land thanks to her ability to build relationships with people. So we'll be diving into how you can do the same for your business and for your general travels for the first time.

    Michelle has knocked down the doors and impressed CEO’s at many billion dollar companies. Her relentless pursuit towards buyers at Costco Wholesale earned her coveted shelf space that also led to national deals with The Vitamin Shoppe. Other current clients include the Washington Nationals and Tampa Bay Rays. Within in her inner circle are multi-seven figure entrepreneurs, famous comedians, professional athletes and coaches from the NFL, NBA, MLB & NHL.

    As a result of these amazing relationships and opportunities Michelle has honed a unique skill set that will help you develop the most important and valuable relationships. She will teach you how to open doors and meet people that you have always dreamed of meeting, but you never knew how to get to. That’s her genius.

    She has accomplished incredible feats of influence, building a business both online and brick & mortar. She has sold everything from mortgages, to wardrobes at Nordstrom, to $30k online education programs, to 7-figure homes, to Paleo meatballs. She pitched her way on Shark Tank and raised over $1M for her last Company. She uses the same formula to make all these things happen and her goal is to take her 20 years of experience and help you overcome any obstacles to close more deals, work half the time, make double the money and work with the clients that you love to serve.

    Very impressive dudette!!

    We tackle the topic of building relationships for both business and for general friendships whilst we're on the road, especially seeing as there's a fair amount of overlap between the two. Michelle comes in from the business angle and I come in from the traveller's angle.

    Make sure you check out the episode in it's entirety and fire away any questions you may have down below!

    Enjoy dudes and dudettes!

    *fist bump*

    IN THIS EPISODE WE COVER:

    - How Michelle built her relationships
    - How Luke make friends on the road
    - How both of these can tie into each other
    - Tips for those of you doing this for the first time

Refreshing Format w/ Solid Information

I just finished the episode on managing your finances as a small business owner, especially one who spends a lot of time traveling, and wow, was it filled with some solid information and some great resources.

Luke approaches podcasting with a refreshing format, bringing on co-hosts rather than standard interviewees, so the episode is very much a back and forth conversation than a question and answer interview.

I highly recommend this show for any location independent small business owners, or anyone striving to get there!

Awesome show Luke!

Greddyboy ,
