I've just launched a new YouTube channel!! The concept? I take real businesses struggling to stand the f*ck out, provide my positioning/branding/lead gen help, and record it all for YouTube. The first mini-series features three freelance marketers (copywriter Rob, ecommerce designer Laura, and non-fiction book coach Vicky).
I hope you'll set aside half an hour to watch it through. Maybe with your morning coffee? Or lunch break? Or evening onion soup? And then, the usual "Subscribe, Like, Share" would go a long, long way too.

Benji Hyam is the co-founder of Grow and Convert, a content marketing agency that does things a little differently to other agencies.
They identify pain points to drive content, conversation, and sales, which is something of a novelty in the world of marketing agencies.

Topics covered:
- How most agencies are focussed on output of content not leads
- Why many agencies choose not to measure ROI
- Is content here to stay?
