A really entertaining listen, especially for myself personally who’s ever only really thought of our blog as a hobby blog for the past two years.

Brilliant stuff. Still laugh at the need to explain ROI 🙂 Hopefully this is a message more will take to heart regarding the need to step up their game and go pro instead of trying to hack it on their own without any guidance, workshops or desire to improve.
