Hear from the GOAT of marketing!
Our guest this week is Seth Godin, marketing mastermind, public speaker and best-selling author. You may know him for one of his 20 books, including his newest book, The Practice. He is also the founder of Akimbo, hosts the Akimbo podcast, and creates some of the most sought-after marketing courses online, including the altMBA.
Today, we talk with Seth about some of the core principles of marketing and how they apply to everyone - not just marketers! We also dive into his inspiration behind his newest book, The Practice, how to approach creativity as a professional, the importance of generosity with ideas, and why people may be holding themselves back from success without knowing it.
