Talking Points is a new format of podcast. I, the editor, hand over the commentary to a company with at least 2 readers working together. You the listener get insights from inside the industry. What’s the reaction to the news? What are we learning day to day?
This week’s guests are Harry and Esme of The Goat Agency.
If you and a colleague read Influence Weekly, you can be a guest host.
Email me: hi@influenceweekly.co and I’ll schedule you for a future week.
