Most strategy is, to some level, interacting with or understanding people and their motivations.

He is the guy that gets to tell the creatives what to make, what insight to use and why. And it wouldn't be a final podcast of the year without discussing the odd Christmas ad. Particularly when a terrific Christmas campaign has been marred by racist backlash.

You could be forgiven for thinking that running a podcast is a bit like running an airbnb, particularly with the impending arrival of your first guest. You get a few jitters as you anticipate your first guest's arrival. "I was so excited and also super nervous," said first time airbnb host Colleen in an interview. Well I felt exactly the same as we faced down the microphone of our first Pending Approval guest! We Are Savvy is an external marketing agency. We're working more and more with hybrid versions of the traditional marketing team and we decided the time was right to talk to Caroline Healy, Founder of We Are Savvy, an external marketing agency. We wanted to learn about what an external marketing agency does, how they operate and to discuss with Caroline what she is seeing impacting businesses in this COVID-19 business environment. After listening to what Caroline has to say, if you would like to understand more about what her agency has to offer you can email her at caroline@wearesavvy.com.au Hope you enjoy our latest Pending Approval offering! #podcast #MediaAgency #Marketing
