The Creative Marketing Podcast

Easily the worst episode of the podcast yet, I didn't have much energy in the tank, I didn't have any good ideas of what to talk about, so I made a YouTube video about making YouTube videos while recording the podcast. Layers on layers.

Honestly just give this episode a miss lol, tune in next week when the quality of content will hopefully be higher!!

In this episode Aengus goes into detail on exactly how to start a podcast. From planning and choosing your nice, to selecting the right equipment, to editing and producing the show to releasing it across platforms.

Aengus has successfully launched The Creative Marketing Podcast to rank as high as number 6 in the marketing podcast charts in the UK, and here he shares the exact details of how he did this, and you can too.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone considering launching a podcast of their own (or who has recently launched one) as it breaks down all of the details and information you will need to successfully get a show up and running!

On episode 17 Aengus is flying solo. He talks about Clubhouse, the new audio-only social networking platform - what is it and why should you be using it to build your personal brand! He also talks some basic marketing theory and dives into what the marketing funnel is, how it works and what the common ways people misunderstand it are.

He also goes on a bit of a rant about how lucky we all are to be alive - not to be missed!

Heather Torres is the COO of Think Media and has helped grow their main YouTube channel to over 1.5 million subscribers. In this episode, she shares the secrets and tactics used to achieve this growth and lays out exactly how you can do the same.

If you have any interest in how YouTube works, in how to start a channel or in how to grow your following and turn YouTube into your full time job, then this is the episode for you!

On episode 15 I am joined by none other than Mr. Zain Gaziani. Zain shares the story of his journey. From working at Amazon in a seemingly great job, but one that he hated. To working at dollar general and living with 5 people and a hamster. To going to see Gary Vaynerchuck speak at an event and ending up getting hired by him on the spot!

He also deep dives into how he has been building his personal brand over the past few years and talks through the process he undertook to turn some of his digital creations into a successful merch drop.

We also jam on a range of other topics including how powerful LinkedIn is and how exciting the new clubhouse app is.

This is definitely a must-listen for anyone looking to build their personal brand or make money from their creativity!

No guest on this weeks episode, just the ramblings of a maniac. Some of the subject matter vaguely relates to marketing, some of it doesn't.

Among the topics discussed are conversion rate optimisation, the 80/20 principles, Aengus' goals for the year and vintage clothing.

On this episode, Aengus is joined by author and literary editor Kevin Stevens. Kevin has written 10 books, including the best-selling Cops Are Robbers, which was made into a movie by NBC. As well as this he has extensive experience editing books for others, and as such he has a deep understanding of what it takes to succeed as an author and what it takes to write a book.

In the episode, they discuss Kevin's own journey from English and History student to published author and professional editor. Among other things, they discuss the importance of making writing a habit, the process of developing a character and building a story, and how to self-edit a book before sharing it with agents or publishers.

For anyone who has an interest in writing or aspires to be a writer, this episode is packed full of valuable knowledge that you will not want to miss!

I didn't spend much time over the break thinking about getting any guests for the show. As a result, this week, there are no guests. It's just me, ranting about my goals for 2021, sharing my thoughts on how to best achieve goals, saying "shut the f*ck up" several times, talking about failure, and generally just chatting a bunch of shit!

I didn't edit this episode at all, so expect a lot of umms and mouth noises... X

On this Episode I am joined by none other than Michael Chernow - founder of successful restaurant chains The Meatball Shop and Searson, host of two seasons of his own TV show called Food Porn and most recently the founder of a new brand called Kreatures of Habit which will be launching in the new year.

On the show we discuss a wide range of subjects, diving into particular detail around what Michael considers his number 1 talent - taking a business from an idea in your mind all the way to be out in the world. We also touch on lessons Michael has learned through his career as well as the habits that allow him to remain successful.

On epsiode 10 Aengus is joined by a friend and form VaynerMedia co-worker, James Davey A.K.A. The Exam Coach.

One the episode they discuss a range of topics from smartphone management to 2021 goal setting to how James built a successful business while also working in a full-time job. Beyond this, they also chat about how Jame's entire business model was deeply threatened by COVID-19 so he pivoted to provide a completely new service that is now working well.
