This episode is crammed with tips on how to build your audience and develop relationships by taking full advantage of the connections you make.KEY TAKEAWAYS: “It’s easier to repurpose content than you think, be native and don’t auto share.”“The biggest crime in branding is these people who have been gifted a platform and don’t apply all the other rules of social media and branding to leverage other platforms”“Start as soon as possible, maximise as much as possible, be it time, money or effort”“I can count on one hand the number of people who I have met on a podcast who I haven’t gone on to have an ongoing relationship with.”“The difference between a podcast and an Instagram or Facebook post is longevity.”“We all have a personal brand; we know it has the ability to make or break us. What are the characteristics that you are going to show? You’ve got to have total consistency and only one or key messages.”BEST MOMENTS:“I’ve actually generated more from getting my 15k followers than you have from your 1million followers, but you could be unstoppable”“When you meet someone in a podcast scenario, it brings with it a level of credibility and respectability that isn’t there if you had met under other circumstances. If you can leverage that properly, the cost of making the podcast tends to pale into insignificance, if you can make the right relationships with the right people.”“If you’re struggling with content it’s not because you’re not a good writer, it’s because you don’t actually like or believe in what you are doing. When writing about something you love, you will never run out of words”ABOUT THE GUEST: Matt Haycox AKA Funding Guru has finance and investment at the core of his business but he has organically become a mentor, advisor and online course host.

Julie Waddell’s passion for food and broadcasting came together when she took on a role on BBC Radio 4 as a journalist on The Food Programme in 2012 alongside Dan Saladino. During this time she started researching the popularity of humous in the UK, and she was amazed to discover that it’s market size exceeded £60m. 

At the same time, she had ‘invented’ smoked humous in her home kitchen where her creative culinary skills had been put to use when she had been looking to make healthy food taste amazing for her young family.

Julie combined her professional research with her cooking creativity and did some market testing on her unique smoked humous. It turned out that people loved it and wanted to buy it, so she decided to set up The Little Smoked Food Company and launch a range of Moorish smoked humous products to sell in delicatessens in her local area.

Early success meant that Julie had the confidence to approach Waitrose to see if they’d like to stock her products. Things moved very quickly with Waitrose launching the brand at the end of 2012.  Julie says “Getting in to Waitrose changed my life, I have worked very hard to grow our brand in Waitrose to pay back the buyer who took a punt on giving me this amazing opportunity. I’m still friends with my first Waitrose buyer and we often talk about how the listing came about and how I was so fortunate to hit upon something trendy and delicious.”

Julie is now Founder of Moorish - the leading British brand of humous & dips, available in retailers nationwide.
