my local marketer - one year on
About a year ago I was honoured to be the first ever guest on a new podcast called my local marketer. It’s hosted by a friend of mine, Maria Lloyd who also lives in Reading. Her new podcast is all about local advertising - to highlight the stellar businesses and organisations in our area, provide local marketing opportunities and create engaging content. I was excited for Maria, but also wondered how far she could fly if she exclusively stuck to our local stars. Turns out there was nothing to wonder, she flew! Our episode is number 55, and there are 52 weeks in a year! Maria has recorded podcasts with our favourite local bookshop Fourbears Books, local charities, local businesses, people who run community groups and everyone who is doing something awesome in the Reading and Caversham area.
So our episode - we reflected on the journey that I have taken since publishing my book about smartphone use called How to Leave a Group Chat, and how I have gone about marketing it. As I mention in the my local marketer podcast, most authors are not marketers. I am, and it’s still one of the greatest challenges that I have ever faced career-wise as I had to prove myself and muddle my way through a very new territory at the same time.
Maria does have her own Marketing business as well, so if you’re after some marketing advice don’t hesitate to get in touch with her for a free consultation.
