Wow! I could not have had a better interview for the very first episode of my podcast - Business Intentional! I had the privilege to interview one of my business partners, Rachael Berguson as well as Mari Lewis who is an Agency Development Manager at Google. We, Klear Digital & Intentional.Media , have a unique relationship with Google because of the results that our agencies consistently get for our clients in Google.

Our Exclusive Relationship With Google

This relationship is not to be confused with being a Google partner, which we are as well. This is connection is something above and beyond that and only the highest performing agencies get access to a special Agency Development Manager, like Mari. (BTW, I’m pretty sure we got the best one! Mari is awesome!)

Needless to say, when I was offered my own show, I could think of no one better to kick it off with than Mari Lewis. Originally, the topic was going to be exclusively about Video Marketing Trends in 2017, and we definitely covered that in this episode, but the parts I’m excited about are the topics that came up that weren’t pre-planned AT ALL.
