  • It’s like a marketing high five

    You know when you meet someone and you’re like ‘yeah, I hear you’. That is how I feel about this podcast and the conversations you have.

    As a full trained but very instinctive CMO or Head of Marketing with over 25 years of experience, you can’t always get to have conversations like this with those you admire or peers. These conversations are the antidote.

    Thank you!

  • Essential tool in the box

    I’ve been listening to Jon and his high calibre of guests for a long time. It’s become an essential part of my marketing toolkit for career development.

    Ask any of Jon’s guest to quote for an hour of their time, and you’ll soon realise the huge ROI on listening with note pad and pen.

    I hope this podcast continues for many years to come.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Who Gives A Crap Founder on Challenger Lessons - Danny Alexander
Q: What are the advantages of having three co-founders and how did you divide up responsibilities?
Responsibilities partitioned by strength: Danny led product and brand, Jehan handled strategy and analytics, Simon managed operations and capital deployment; collaboration remained strong because roles overlapped just enough to create synergy without stepping on each other's toes.
Who Gives A Crap Founder on Challenger Lessons - Danny Alexander
Q: So take us back to how did you meet the other founders? How did it all happen for you?
The founders met in 2010 and began collaborating via a remote setup, with a slow burn from a side project to full-time commitment around 2015-2016, driven by complementary skills in design, strategy, and operations.
How Gymshark took on the sportswear giants - Carly Natalizia
Q: How do you balance brand and commercial responsibilities at Gymshark?
Brand and commerce are inseparable; when the brand resonates with the community, commercial results follow. We ensure both sides lead with the customer and use two senior marketers who complement each other, with a structured 'disagree and commit' approach to decision-making.
How Gymshark took on the sportswear giants - Carly Natalizia
Q: What was your career path before Gymshark and how did it prepare you for this role?
I spent 18 years in financial services with a pivot into retail, which gave me a strong data-driven, growth-oriented mindset. Moving into retail allowed me to see how to apply financial discipline to consumer brands, and learning across different sectors helped me land the Chief Commercial Officer role where I could integrate creditor insight, brand, and customer experience.
LinkedIn CMO on how to grow your profile, what skills are most in demand and B2B marketing strategies - Jessica Jensen
Q: What are the three top tips for building a personal profile on LinkedIn?
Have a point of view, use short-form video with captions and engage with comments to activate your audience; be snappy, insightful, and inject your personality; actively respond to comments and network with others to expand reach.
