If you've ever wanted to hear what a group of women marketers sound like ad-libbing marketing tips and ideas, now is your chance.

We should have had a Google Analytics expert in the studio with us but he wasn't very well (no man-flu jokes) and so we just did out thing off the cuff.

We enjoyed it, we didn't take it too seriously and we hope we shared some useful marketing information and ideas from the cliff face.

If you’re madly in love with your partner it may seem like there is nothing more idyllic than to be able to spend all your day with them and then go home in the evening for a few more hours of quality time together. Or maybe it sounds ghastly! However, you manage your relationship with your life partner, when you also go into business with them this 24/7 things needs some serious juggling, patience and biting of tongues if you’re going to make the business work.

In this episode we discuss the very real challenges to face when your business partner is also your life partner, and a few tactics and ideas about how to make it work.

Plus we add some bi-polar issues into the mix. Quite frankly, it’s amazing we’re all still in one piece.

Join Laura and Barry Ash of Rocksolid and Sian Murphy (show host) and Mark Jennings of Stormchasers Digital. This episode was refereed by co-host Laura Burton Lawrence.
