I love Matt’s mindset around taking on the big guys - I think he said something like “Be everything they’re not!” Fast to market, responsive to customer feedback, open to new ways of doing things. I loved Matt’s questioning of “How many conventional products are yet to be created in their natural form?” But the marketing gold doesn’t stop there, in this episode you’ll also discover: Dave Jenyns explains how to claim your free Google My Business page I’ve locked in the details for the SBBM Deep Dive Mastermind And there’s plenty of prizes to be given away in my Monster Prize Draw Resources mentioned: The Good Crisp Company Melbourne SEO Services How to claim your Google My Business page Prize winners websites: Automately - Ryan Speak Noobspearo - Isaac Daly Shrek Please support these businesses who make this show possible: American Express Business Explorer Credit Card ... it’s the credit card that ensures your business expenses reward you.
