MarketPulse: Pros & Pioneers
Your STORY becomes your WHY.
Marketpulse is, at heart, about sharing marketing advice and support to those who are either trying to 'DIY' what they're doing, or to help those who are looking for support, to find the right partners, and ask the right questions as they outsource.
As we recorded and released season 1 (ending April 2025), we realised, that we're each of us, the product of our journey, story and vision. That's what connects us to our 'why'.
As we launch Season 2, we're going to dive deeper into the amazing stories of our guests, to find out exactly what makes them tick - from working with Hollywood producers, to go-Karting with Lewis Hamilton, and from prison to running a ÂŁ10m business, we've seen it all on our show!

After years of playing and coaching in cricket and football, he realized that clubs weren't just struggling. They were quietly folding one by one. With rising costs, outdated fundraising methods, and a constant fight to stay afloat, it was clear something had to change. Alex took action. In this episode of MarketPulse Pros and Pioneers, Alex shares his personal journey from athlete to entrepreneur, and why he felt he had no choice but to create a solution he was looking for.
Alex:a cricket bat nowadays is astronomical for a kid that's growing as well, but they're going to need one, supposedly every year, every two years.

And it's apparently our responsibility to make sure they don't get hit by a ball even though the ground was there for 120 years before they were built. these are volunteers, and if they can give up their time to grab a club, I'm sure I can give up 15 minutes of my time to show them a platform that's going to help them,
