A deep and personal conversation with Alex Ayin where he unravels a journey he hasn't previously shared. Alex found validation through sports, a thread that weaves throughout. In parts, our conversation evolves into a coaching session, delving deeper into Alex's identity. We explore his struggles with fitting into school, navigating his mixed heritage, and managing overt racism. Alex had to stop playing Rugby in his teens due to an injury, where he started Water Polo. Inspiration for Alex stems from his grandfathers — one a WWII survivor and the stories he shared, the other who bravely moved the family from Africa to the UK. Yet, Alex's path to success wasn't linear. Despite starting on a very prestigious graduate scheme at Virgin, he dropped out of the programme to the disbelief of his family. This is a very reflective conversation where he shares he stopped drinking, leaving Social Chain and questions his identity and type of person he wants to be. He shares a concept of diversification of identity - you as a human aren't classified as just one thing. Alex shares his journey and the values and beliefs from family first, outworking the competition reframing negative experiences and finally the importance of treating others with kindness and respect, a lesson passed down from both his parents and as a United fan how the legendary football manager Alex Ferguson did. For Alex, sport isn't just about physical activity; they're integral to the fabric of his life. Tune in to hear this reflective and honest conversation.

This was the very first podcast interview for Steven Bartlett. You'll know him as host of The Diary of a CEO podcast, as the youngest investor on BBC TV's Dragons Den 2024, and as a successful entrepreneur. It was also the very first interview I recorded as host of this podcast some seven years ago. You'll hear from a 23-year-old Steven who talks about starting his first business at 12 by selling cigarettes at school, not receiving Christmas or Birthday presents from his parents, and dropping out of University after just one lecture. He also offers his advice to aspiring entrepreneurs and tells us the number one skill all entrepreneurs need to master. We recorded our conversation via audio only back in 2017, so we have added video to this podcast and tried to enhance the audio - he's speaking to me on his phone! At the time Steven was CEO at Social Chain and had yet to start his podcast, yet to chat about 'my first million', but instead talks about his reading vlog and influencer marketing. The happy sexy millionaire Steven Bartlett's dragon's den journey had yet to begin. You can now of course hear him helping young entrepreneurs on a dragons den full episode. I hope you enjoy this episode as we celebrate seven years since I started Screw It Just DO It.

Hello! Welcome to the first episode of our very special In Conversation series. Today on the show, we are joined by one of the most recognisable business and media personalities in Britain, Steven Bartlett. In 2014, he co-founded a social media marketing agency called Social Chain, which cemented the then-22-year-old as one of the leaders in the social media marketing world. Three years later, he created his podcast, The Diary of a CEO, which is one of the biggest podcasts in the UK right now. Two years ago, he was announced as the youngest-ever investor of BBC's Dragon's Den. All were achieved by the age of 31. In this chat, Steven talks about everything: from being expelled from school and dropping out of uni, his relationship with religion, the reason he never thought he'd end up in such a healthy romantic relationship, what it's like coming into money, and why he never sets an alarm.

How do you get noticed by big brands? And eventually, get noticed by big agencies for an acquisition offer? It's all about making decisions that put the client first. That is what this guest shares in his story about starting out in the early days of social media, finding a hole in the industry,  and how his agency's rapid growth led to an unexpected acquisition offer. Daniel James is the founder and CEO of Mint Performance Marketing, a growth agency working with brands that take a strong stance. His team helps brands build their business profitably with integrated omnichannel growth marketing execution. He's led marketing strategies for AOL, Toyota, Disney, and more. His agency saw rapid growth, getting to seven figures within a year, and caught the eye of the global agency group Social Chain, which acquired it in 2019. He'll now discuss how the acquisition conversation started, how he estimated a fair value for his agency, and much more. In this episode, we'll discuss: Running a full-service agency to have a bigger impact on brands. How to use influencer marketing for your agency. The importance of customer experience to create loyalty. How the acquisition conversation started and how he justified his valuation number.   Subscribe Apple | Spotify | iHeart Radio | Stitcher | Radio FM Sponsors and Resources E2M Solutions: Today's episode of the Smart Agency Masterclass is sponsored by E2M Solutions, a web design, and development agency that has provided white-label services for the past 10 years to agencies all over the world.

He followed Jason's podcast and eventually joined the mastermind and has been a guest on the podcast before. Today, he's helping Jason bring something new to the Smart Agency podcast audience by interviewing a special guest and getting a new perspective on the show.   The Evolution of Social Media from it's Beginnings Daniel has been in the digital space for a long time, beginning as a MySpace employee. At that time, MySpace was one of the first recognized social media platforms that really took off. For Daniel, it was a blast working there feeling the excitement of what they were helping build. It was a very creative environment where they were encouraged to do innovative things. MySpace was always a creative community where you would code your own page. Later on, companies like Facebook took over with a more user-friendly communication tool. From that point, the platform struggled although it still exists today. All in all, it was an amazing opportunity to visit Los Angeles and work with the MySpace team there. That is when he decided to move to LA and run his own marketing agency. Finding a Gap in the Market to Have a Bigger Impact on Brands Daniel didn't study marketing but was lucky to have a solid formation from the people around him and working on different big brands. After a while, he wanted to have a bigger impact on brands and noticed a gap in the communication between different agencies all working on the same brand. This inspired him to start his agency, Mint, with a vision of being a full-service agency for disruptive ecommerce brands. As an agency, they don't try to cover absolutely every service. For instance, they don't do SEO. However, in their core focus of acquisition and retention Daniel strives to offer a full and non-fragmented service. One of his current clients was working with several agencies until recently. Although it worked for him, it meant he had different teams for CRM, influencer, social, and Google. Instead, having now all those teams under the same umbrella means they work cohesively to drive the most efficient, scalable, and profitable performance. The Do's and Dont's of Influencer Marketing Daniel's agency uses influencer marketing to harness creative's connections with their audiences. What brands normally want from influencers is a person-to-person connection to their audience. In his opinion, influencers do a great job because they're contextually relevant to the platforms. People respond better to a familiar face than to stylized commercial content (although there is a place for commercial content). The influencer approach increases the chances of content being viewed as not just an ad. Daniel's agency prefers to provide a script however they're careful not to restrict the influencer. They've already figured out a way to engage their audience. That said, it doesn't mean they'll be great at getting your message across. This is why they provide guidelines that still allow creative freedom and improves the chances of success. Influencer marketing is about community first. The worst mistake Daniel has seen when it comes to using influencer marketing is when people don't think through the community element. Are they relevant to the brand? Are they engaged? Is it the type of community you want to tap into?   How the TikTok Algorithm Favors Influencer Marketing TikTok influencers are growing and becoming mainstream celebrities at impressive speeds. What is it about TikTok that helps them grow so much? For starters, it still has organic reach so you can actually establish yourself and build an audience. Additionally, the production levels required to be successful are lower. Because of this, the platform is very attractive to creators and it's easier to attract an audience. For Daniel, the production level you want for your influencer campaign depends on what you're trying to achieve. You don't need to spend a lot of money on highly stylized video content on TikTok. This doesn't mean you shouldn't invest in video production. However, for brands trying to tap into TikTok and video, they can go for less stylized productions and get great results. There's a place for both. It'll all depend on what your goal is and what's native to the platform and doesn't feel out of place. The Important of Good Customer Experience to Create Loyalty Generally, you never want to pay to acquire a customer more than once which is why there is a huge focus on retention. This is even more important now in an economic climate of inflation and a recession. Consumers will be pickier about where they put their money and demand more from brands. Brands must pay attention and really go above and beyond to keep existing customers engaged. What's a good customer experience? There are certain elements that contribute to a good customer experience. There's a good level of communication upon purchase, shipping speed, and how the brand is following up with the consumer. Things like VIP programs, loyalty points, subscriptions, etc. are ways to encourage repeat purchases. Daniel is a big believer in making the product unpacking shareable. If your product arrives in a normal package then OK. People will open it and use it. However, if it arrives in a cool package with a thank you note and stickers, then customers are likely to take a picture and post it on social media. This customer experience creates free, word-of-mouth advertising. How They Got to a Fair Validation that Satisfied Both Parties Daniel already knew Social Chain owner Steven Barlett from meeting at events yet the eventual conversation about an acquisition came as somewhat of a surprise to him. At this point, the agency was just two years old. Social Chain had built its business and name working on very creative campaigns around brand awareness. They tapped into social media as more of a communication tool and never had a performance element to what they did. They were now looking to marry brand marketing with performance marketing. Daniel felt this was a great opportunity and converging those two worlds of brand and performance has always made sense from a consumer perspective and in terms of efficiencies. When it came time to talk numbers, the estimated valuation depended on a number of factors. It was heavily tied to EBITDA. It was also tied to whether or not the business was growing, profitability, length of contracts, forecastable revenue, and composition of the team (the value will be less for agencies that are freelancer/contractor-only agency). His agency had established employees, had forecastable revenue, and was profitable. All these things aided him in getting a good valuation. Furthermore, it was important for him to retain control because it wasn't a cashout for him. They were barely starting and the acquisition was more about a strategic alliance.

Daniel James has a unique mind for performance growth marketing because he has successfully navigated the wave of digital trends and the social media landscape from the early days of MySpace to influencer marketing and everything in between. What you get with Daniel is an innovative mind with an edge of 'been there done' that practicality that delivers results and this is what makes him a man worth listening to. Mint Performance Marketing is a full-service growth marketing agency working with e-commerce brands across everything from creative influencer marketing, paid advertising on social and Google as well as email, SMS, and website development. In 2021, the business was acquired by Social Chain, a world-leading social media and e-commerce group, but Daniel remains at the helm. So what did we learn from our sit down with Daniel? - Various digital platforms and the challenges and myths around metrics. - That what must remain true of any brand is a real focus on customer experience and customer attention. - How businesses are on a race to the bottom if they are not increasing the lifetime value of existing customers. If you're only ever scaling the front end of the business, but you're not paying attention to retention you will be in trouble. - That you need an ecosystem that allows you to understand your business and be able to plan and therefore measure how effective your marketing is being - but also be looking for what you are missing in opportunity. - You need to have a 360 aspect of customer acquisition but it must allow space for creative testing, lots of social proof and influencers support backed by a really cohesive paid retention strategy. Part of the Digital/Social Media Landscape since 2004, Daniel James has led digital strategy at companies including MySpace, AOL, and Turn for some of the world's most successful companies. Today, he heads up Mint Performance Marketing, a full-service performance marketing agency based in LA with a growing global footprint, whose mission is to accelerate growth for disruptive DTC/eCommerce brands through cutting-edge strategies across creative, influencer marketing, paid social, paid search, email and sms.   Connect with Daniel: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danieljamesgraham/ Website: https://www.mint-performancemarketing.com/ Connect with Allison: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/allisonsummerschicago/ Website: DisruptiveCEONation.com Twitter: @DisruptiveCEO    #CEO #startup #startupstory #founder #founderstory #business #businesspodcast #podcast #selfhelp #selfservice               Learn more about your ad choices.

Being fearless means not being afraid of challenges and most especially, not being afraid of FAILURE. While not all entrepreneurs and business owners have the qualities to be fearless, helping them to become one is not impossible. Luckily, our guest today, Dominic McGregor, is on a mission to help us become one. Dominic McGregor, the co-founder of Social Chain alongside Steven Bartlett, an award-winning and hugely innovative social media marketing agency, and the co-founder of the investment firm, Fearless Adventures, which supports entrepreneurs on their journey both financially and emotionally. In this episode, Dominic McGregor talks with Adam Stott about his journey as a young entrepreneur and his experience with a social media-based company. Dominic also shares what his new company, Fearless Adventures, does for companies and entrepreneurs to help them grow. Listen to learn more!

Dom McGregor co-founded Social Chain with Steven Bartlett, host of the hit podcast Diary of a CEO. Their business didn't fail, in fact, it sky-rocketed. When they exited the company after six years in 2020, they'd built it to hundreds of employees, with clients like Apple, McDonald's, the BBC, and Boohoo, and taken it public the year before with a value of about £250 million.  But the pressure on Dom was immense, and the way he coped left him feeling like he'd failed. He had turned to alcohol as a coping mechanism to deal with both the highs and lows of being a young founder in a fast-growing business. Exacerbated by his feeling of imposter syndrome, this toxic relationship with alcohol ended up nearly costing him his role in the business.  Drinkline is the national alcohol helpline.
