Branding and Networking for EP Operators and Businesses | Craig McKim

Selling can't be a dirty word in EP; your work depends on it. It is in this context that we are delighted to welcome Craig McKim back for the second time on the Circuit Magazine Podcast to find tangible solutions to branding and networking both yourself as an operator and as a business.

Has the balance between remaining a 'grey professional' and succeeding in your career ever been so blurred?

Join us as we talk to Craig to discuss:

  • How can you fall in love with what your clients do and how will that help with networking?
  • Can EP businesses do damage to themselves on social media?
  • How important is inquisitiveness and hunger in remaining an industry leader?
  • Is there a difference between networking as an employee and as a business owner?
  • How can EP businesses 'pre-suade' one another that they are credible potential partners?
  • When starting a new business how can you develop skills to become the VP of marketing even if you have not got a background in it?
  • Are some operators allergic to selling?
  • Which marketing and business 'gurus' are worth paying attention to as an EP operator?
