In this episode I chat to Danny Denhard, Director of Growth & Crowdfunding at JustGiving, business mentor and mega source of wisdom! Danny has over nineteen years of experience in managing teams, marketing, and product growth, all of which we touch on in this episode.

Beginning with what "growth marketing" really means, and why it's more about bringing disciplines together to tackle business problems and improve user experience than just short-term hacking. 

We discuss ways to work, the importance of communication and why it's so important to be able to get teams to buy into the journey. Why you shouldn't have to sit in meeting rooms to make decisions and how the mindset needed to shift gear between startups and corporates, isn't all that different. Danny also shares some great tips on how to get senior leaders to buy into marketing ideas, particularly around social media, starting with the power of the executive summary.

I then give Danny the not to easy task of ranking marketing disciplines in importance, from product marketing to social and SEO. We get Danny's advice on how to unlock social reach and why the newsfeed shouldn't be the primary focus today, and how good creative always cuts through. 

This was an absolute pleasure to record and if you enjoyed it, I'd love for you to leave a review or share it with a friend. As always, thanks a lot for listening.
