Return On Disruption

Grab your hat, saddle up and hold on tight - cause this episode will buck you if you're not ready. A few weeks ago we recorded an episode with customer service expert and new best friend, Rootin’ Tootin’ Trouble Shootin’ Jimmy. This guy is a legend. We quick pitched him. Ran customer service role playing scenarios. And dunked not one, but two app games. There is a learning lesson basically every other sentence, so don't be afraid to listen twice...

The Return On Disruption booking team has simply outdone themselves again. This week we got the man, the myth and the ultimate LinkedIn connection: Link Dinn. Link generously shares some stories from his grandfather (Market Din) and gives us a quick lesson on the “Egypt strategy.” Luckily we were sitting down, because what happened next was some next level shit. The guy pitches not one, but two beauty homerun-slamdunks. And he wasn’t finished there…Link left enough gas in the tank to show us his approach to “selling a pen.”

Huge episode.

Make sure you're wearing your sunglasses - because this episode has so much star power, you’ll go blind if you look directly at it. This week we have writer, 'pengineer' and hotdog activist ANNA MAXYMIW on the show! If that weren’t enough, we also call in our good friend and audience favourite, Edgar Allan Flow Chart to help us dunk some fresh and fast pitches. Just a huge episode. Keith and Anna both brought incredible pitches to the show this week. We also go back to our roots and practice some classic marketing and advertising exercises.

Huge thanks and shoutout to Anna for lending her time, knowledge and expertise. Checkout DIRTY WORK and more of Anna’s work here: http://www.annamaxymiw.ca/

Sound the alarms - we got another absolutely HUGE episode on our hands. Our good friend, singer-songwriter and newly minted Pennywise salesmen of the year - Owen Davies is our guest this week. This dude is next level. He breaks down the music industry, telling us what it takes to go viral and walks us through his patented approach to making the filthiest of hard-slappin' bangers. As if that wasn't enough, he turns around and pitches us an absolute home-run slam-dunk, sells us some pennywise and creates an app on the spot. What can't this guy do?
