Today's guest Rudi McGuinness is one of the most passionate, energetic and engaging young people I've ever spoken to.
Rudi is Head of Partnerships at Dig In, a company who provide boxes of essential items for students on their first day of university, and how this create meaningful connections between brands and young consumers in a time they are most receptive.
We touch on her vibrant journey from Spain to the UK, her experiences in hospitality, and her passion for engaging with Gen Z through innovative marketing strategies.
We also discuss the challenges of outreach in the marketing world, the cultural differences between Spain and the UK, and the importance of positivity in the workplace.
Rudi's diverse career path and her commitment to building community shine through in this engaging conversation - you're going to love it (and her!)
