     In spirit of International Women’s Day, we have two lovely ladies in episode #25. This time Kris is hosting the podcast, starring a fellow team member, Erika.

     Erika was working a full-time job at a science lab, as a project manager when she applied as a personal assistant for Kris. She was hustling at these two jobs for half a year. During that time, Erika showed how smart and talented she is and proved that she’s a great performer and executor. After a while, Kris realised the real importance of Erika as a team member, resulting in promotion to COO of Sugatan. Now Kris thinks that everyone needs an “Erika” in their life. Even “Mambo No. 5” song has it in it’s lyrics:”A little bit of Erika by my side”.

Once again, we had a chat and we share our increasing pains of growing the agency and challenges we're facing. We've discussed where we're getting our creative inspiration (which is not where you would expect) & updates on where the agency is going. 

If you want to learn in a very cosy environment - that's the episode you should be listening to. 

Enjoy it!

Super short, yet super useful podcast episode. 

We talked everything related to the high-converting landing pages. Oliver was generous enough to share 5 top things he would change on any landing page and see an increase in conversion. At the same time, he shared the top mistakes entrepreneurs are making when creating their landers. 

After the podcast I've decided to do a few things to optimize my landing pages myself and will implement them asap. 

Enjoy the episode!

I've been following Nick 2 years already and have seen his growth. Now he's on many podcasts and scaling the businesses. 

Instead of going on over media buying processes (which we touched only a little), our podcast took a completely different way - we mostly spoke about the challenge of being an entrepreneur, developing systems & processes... Also, we touched on how much personal development a person has to go through in order to keep them growing... 

In general, one of the most enjoyable podcasts I've recorded so far. 

I urge you to listen it and let us know your feedback!

Processes, processes and more processes... As we are scaling our agency to 75 people working here, we don't want to rely on the talent we're bringing it. Instead, Kris is working on systemizing our workflow and have it as seamless as possible.

In my opinion, Pinterest is the most underutilized social media channel right now. Not many brands are looking into, they don't know how to do it and have many questions about it... However, if done correctly, Pinterest can generate as much as 7 figures in monthly revenue... 

That's why I've decided to have a chat with our Pinterest marketing gal - Lindsay Shearer. 

Not only did we cover Pinterest marketing, but also dove deep into spirituality and habits to bring the performance beast out of entrepreneurs.
