My guest this week is Rob Illidge who is the CEO of Social Republic.
Rob shares his story of 'how he went for it' and started his business over 5 years ago.
In Robs words...
I founded Social Republic, the global social media agency, in 2015 as a "new way", an alternative to traditional agencies. Having led in-house marketing teams for eight years, I was frustrated by the lack of transparency offered by agencies, and handed in my resignation at a global finance company one fateful Friday. Monday arrived, and with nothing more than a plan and a list of names, inspired by a cold calling scene from Will Smith’s Pursuit of Happiness, I got to work.
