    Ruffells Ad Break 35 - Lucy Pink and Hannah Hardy-Jones

    In this episode, we chat with Lucy and Hannah, the dynamic co-founders of Contented, an AI-powered platform redefining how we capture, repurpose, and amplify conversations.  From solo startup journeys and chance connections to late-night monkfish-fueled brainstorms, these two founders share how they went from consultancy to product development in just two years. They dive into how their backgrounds in ethical marketplaces and HR shaped their mission to build "boring AI" tech that prioritizes people, privacy, and real-world use cases over hype.  Hear about the lessons they’ve learned building a purpose-driven product, their unique approach to customer feedback, and how they’re helping industries like health, finance, and education unlock the power of conversations. If you're curious about the future of AI, building with values, or scaling a startup from scratch, this is a must-watch. 📌 Like, share & subscribe for more founder insights and real-world innovation stories! #ContentedAI #StartupJourney #WomenInTech #AIForGood #Founders #HumanCenteredAI #Podcast

    Ruffells Ad Break 31 - Lukas Halikias and Rit Negi

    In this episode of Ruffells Ad Break we sit down with Lukas and Rit, two dynamic Wellington creatives who turned boredom into a booming business. What began as a spontaneous TikTok, filmed in a local dairy, evolved into a fully fledged content agency redefining how brands show up online. From running their family store and filming skits to now working with major clients and corporate campaigns, these two are riding the wave of digital storytelling with authenticity, humour and zero f*#ks. We dive into their unlikely journey from university procrastinators to TikTok sensations, how they balance education with entrepreneurship, and why they see themselves as content creators not influencers. Lukas and Rit share their thoughts on how businesses get social media wrong, the power of storytelling over selling, and what it takes to genuinely connect with an audience in the age of endless scrolling. You’ll hear about the creative highs, the awkward client meetings, the rooftop barbecues, and the moments that almost tore them apart. Whether you’re a marketer, a creator, or just someone trying to understand Gen Z’s hustle, this episode is packed with laughs, lessons, and serious insight.
