Ep. 82 I'm not a CMO, but I play one on TV

To be a Founder is to be constantly (and often frantically), up-skilling yourself. If you are a Technical, Expert or Visionary Founder, you’ve been spending most of your working life creating amazing things - tech, services, methods solutions. But you likely never took a formal marketing class. Or worked in a sales or marketing role. Yet, here you are playing that CMO role because you need to get people to buy your amazing product/service. If you’re playing the CMO role on TV and/or in real life, this week’s episode of the Rocket Ship Founder Podcast is here to help.
