    #43 | Mark O’Rourke | Make Your Brand Famous

    Mark is the Director of RockSoup Media, who help challenger brands win at out-of-home advertising, a space traditionally dominated by the big, traditional brands. They have worked with brands such as NICE Wines (the founder of which was on the podcast recently), DASH Water, Made.com & Strong Roots, to name just a few. In this bout, we discuss what it takes for a start-up brand on limited budgets to win at out-of-home advertising campaigns, how not to waste their money and why many marketing agencies won’t have their best interests at heart.

    #42 | Hector Hughes | Unplugged | Alcohol, Social Media & Optimising for Happiness

    Hector is the Co-founder of Unplugged, whose mission is to encourage people to have a more conscious relationship with their smartphones and disconnect in nature from time to time. They provide beautiful tech-free wood cabins in the countryside just outside of London where you can reset in nature with a 3-day digital detox. In this bout, we discuss Hector’s journey to starting Unplugged, which included re-evaluating how he was approaching life and his relationship with alcohol. We then go onto discuss the question of whether society is optimising purely for growth and efficiency or whether we are optimising for happiness too, factoring in the role that social media, the news, smartphones and other new technologies play in modern life.
