Holly Mackay, founder/Managing Director of Boring Money, talks about her passion for turning financial gobbledygook into real speak. In particular, when it comes to Sustainable Investing, the need for good stories and, most importantly, putting the consumer first.

This week I speak to financial services entrepreneur Holly MacKay. As founder and head honcho of communications agency Boring Money, Holly is on a mission to cut through the BS, jargon and complexity of money and personal finance. Although I have known Holly for over 15 years, I didn't know her back story.  From university at Cambridge to chalet maid in the alps, Holly mixed working, having fun and learning useful life skills. A trip to Australia taken on a whim ended up with a job in financial services. Homesickness brought Holly back to the UK, where she quickly landed a corporate executive role with a big financial services company. Tiring of corporate politics and keen to go beyond her comfort zone led Holly to set up her first business, 'I had no idea I needed a separate business bank account!' Overseeing a conference just days after the birth of her child was all in a day's work for Holly, 'Although I wouldn't recommend it.' An unsolicited telephone call while walking along the Thames one day led to the sale of her business for a life-changing sum, 'There was certainly a degree of validation about it.' observes Holly, But Holly doesn't sugarcoat her life. The breakdown of her marriage and the challenges of balancing family, business and personal priorities, mean she has developed resilience, humility and empathy.  A great episode which I hope you enjoy listening to as much as I enjoyed recording.

The MPAF Podcast is a 30 minute audio show you download from (http://rogeredwards.co.uk/MPAF) , iTunes or Stitcher Radio. Each week I’ll be interviewing financial services providers, advisers, experts and journalists. Interviews to listen to in the car, on the train or on the treadmill. The main focus of the podcast is on what we can do to make protection and finance more accessible to the consumer and how financial services professionals can develop and promote their businesses. We’ll look at financial services products, interesting business models and campaigns with an emphasis on the following: Marketing – talking about how financial services professionals can develop and promote their businesses using traditional marketing tools but focussing on modern content marketing and social media techniques. Protection – talking about life insurance, critical illness, income protection and other protection products Finance – talking about pensions, platforms, savings and investments My aim is to make sure that you will get one or two big business ideas that you can apply to your own business.  Whether it is a sales idea, advice idea, product tweak or simply an app that is worth looking at. I’m your host, Roger Edwards. A marketer for 25 years now in business to help you with your business strategy, marketing and social media.
