Building a digital marketing strategy that performs consistently across global markets (while still feeling relevant locally) is one of the hardest challenges in modern marketing.

In this episode of Social In 10, we're joined by Ciaran Nixon, Global Digital Marketing Manager at Ivoclar, to explore what that looks like in practice. Ciaran shares how he approaches multi-market strategy without losing local relevance, where businesses most commonly lose potential customers throughout the digital journey, and how his experience as an entrepreneur has shaped the way he thinks about growth and strategy in a large corporate environment.

He also tackles one of the most debated tensions in marketing today: how to balance the pull of data and performance with the longer-term demands of creativity and brand building.

Data tells you what's happening. Empathy tells you why it matters… and the best social media strategies need both.

In this episode of Social In 10, Giraffe Social Co-Founder and CEO Phil Treagus-Evans shares his take on human-first social media and what it really means to cater to an audience rather than just analyse them.

Phil explores when marketers should prioritise storytelling over direct selling, and how to combine performance data with genuine empathy to create campaigns that resonate on a human level while still delivering measurable results.

Standing out as a challenger brand is easy to get wrong… and most brands do. The ones that break through aren't just louder, they're more intentional.

In this episode of Social In 10, we're joined by Georgia Smith, Founder of The Loud Agency, to explore what it really takes to stand out in a saturated market without resorting to gimmicks or short-term attention grabs.

Georgia shares what separates brands that build genuine communities from those that accumulate passive audiences, how bold personality-led marketing can drive real commercial results rather than just vanity metrics, and the biggest mistakes brands make when trying to be "different,” including the trap of performative loudness.

In many B2B sectors, marketing has always been treated as a cost rather than a commercial driver, and the businesses that change that thinking are the ones that start pulling ahead.

In this episode of Social In 10, we're joined by Alastair Patrick, Founder of Aluxai, to explore what it really takes to build a marketing function from first principles in sectors where marketing has historically been undervalued.

Alastair shares how businesses can move from relying on relationships and reputation to building a structured, full-funnel demand engine, the diagnostic questions he asks when stepping into an undermarketed sector to uncover the biggest commercial opportunities, and how founder-led businesses can introduce senior-level marketing thinking without creating unnecessary complexity or overhead.
