The Benefits of Podcasts and Video for Business - Darren Ockenden

I had a really fascinating conversation between Business Coach, Robin Waite and Darren Ockenden, founder of Motion to Profit, about the benefits of Video and Podcasts for small business owners and why it's wortwhile investing the money into building these as a marketing asset.

Having served as a police officer for 14 years, Darren is the visionary behind Motion to Profit, a top-rated marketing agency specialising in Video Production and Podcast Management. 

The podcast discussion covered a wide range of topics related to personal branding, content creation, and business growth. Here are some key highlights from the conversation:
