    Why Innovation Is More Than Technology | Gemma Paterson From Legal & General | 20 Minute Marketing #80

    We're joined by Gemma Paterson from Legal & General for Liam's final episode as host of the show. Gemma brings a ton of experience to the show and also grew up down the street from Liam, so it's a fitting end to his time. Gemma is currently Head of People, Development, Experiences, and Innovation at Legal & General and previously spent around eight years in marketing working before moving into an internal role. Over those years, she's worked for top brands like BP, Monsoon, First Direct, and HSBC.

    During the episode, we talk about innovation and why it's more than just tech. Gemma tells us why she made the switch from direct marketing to an internal role that focuses on innovation and change. We then talk about both product innovation and people innovation and why businesses need to invest in both. Gemma also shares an example of a Vegas hotel that invests in its people and the positive effect that has on the customer experience. We then talk about how small businesses with low resources can innovate and why it's not just something that large companies can invest in. Finally, we discuss innovation in marketing, and Gemma shares another great example.

To close out, Ed shares insights on how Shandy Shack was pitched to Sainsbury's and a recent funding round which will allow the business to grow to the next level.

    Measuring Efficiency, Growth, & Opportunities | With Wiehan Britz | 20 Minute Marketing #75

    Measuring Efficiency, Growth, & Opportunities | With Wiehan Britz | 20 Minute Marketing #75

    This week we chat with Wiehan Britz on episode 75 of the podcast. Wiehan is a digital marketing consultant that has been in the industry for over ten years. He originally started out as an SEO specialist but has worked across the marketing realm such as CRO, A/B testing, paid social, and more. So, we could call him a veteran marketer.

    The episode focuses on measuring efficiency, business growth, and identifying opportunities. Wiehan talks us through two different frameworks and how they can support businesses. The first framework is the Efficiency GAP Analysis Scorecard, which Wiehan created himself. This framework allows businesses to analyse 12 pillars that include factors like learning and development, employee happiness, strategy, onboarding, and more. Secondly, Wiehan talks about the AARRR Pirate Metrics Framework. This framework allows businesses to work backward to identify where in the funnel prospective customers are dropping off. Wiehan shares a real-life example from a SaaS company that shows where prospects are dropping off (free trial, sign up page, canceled accounts, and more). We also talk about budget management and ensuring that your team is aligned.
