Welcome to What Now – the podcast that tries to figure out what the hell is happening out there and how it is affecting the business landscape. This week our guest is Mat Morrison, Planning Director of B2B marketing agency Digital Whiskey and prior to that was Social Media Strategy Director at Starcom MediaVest amongst many other senior agency roles.

We talk about how the move to digital marketing has accelerated in the world of professional services and whether LinkedIn is a valuable marketing tool for the B2B space. Oh, and we kick off (as usual) with an anecdote (one of the best ones so far).

However, we must give you a little warning… Mat’s anecdote contains some swearing. But it wouldn’t work as a story if we bleeped it out. So if you are easily offended, please skip to 7m30s and you should be safe.
