Self-promotion without being subtle or slimy with Rob Broadhead

Permission to Kick Ass

A developer and a marketer walk into a podcast studio...
This is a great one. Rob Broadhead and I are on our respective soapboxes about the lost art of genuine relationship building... especially as AI becomes more prevalent. Forget cold outreach and spammy tactics - we're making human connection STUPIDLY simple. I couldn't script this one if I tried - Rob brings the real talk and together we'll have you rethinking your entire outreach strategy.
Can't-Miss Moments from This Episode:

• Collecting business cards is pretty much pointless. #isaidwhatisaid Rob and I rap on what really works when it comes to connecting at business events...
  
• RANT ALERT: I have a beef with hyper productivity and how it puts pressure on efficiency over connection. Relationships 👏 should 👏 not 👏 be 👏 efficient 👏
  
• Check out my dramatic re-enactment of a cold DM pitch, as if we were talking in a bar (it's got some great tips on how to actually get attention if you can stop laughing long enough)...
  
• Here's what people on the receiving end think about your copy-and-paste cold pitch...
  
• Why making a dramatic shift in your life or business is a hell of a lot easier when you've got a great network (and how to ensure you've GOT a great network vs a collection of business cards)...

Grab some headphones and let's reconnect over what really matters... listen now!
