Embracing Marketing Mistakes
Every marketing expert has a "greatest hits" reel, but their biggest wins are usually built on the back of failure. Welcome to Embracing Marketing Mistakes, the world’s leading podcast for senior marketers who are tired of the polished corporate bullshit.
Join Chris Norton and Will Ockenden, founders of the award-winning Prohibition PR, as they sit down with industry leaders to dissect the career-ending screw-ups they’d rather forget. The show moves past the vanity metrics to uncover the brutal, honest truths behind marketing disasters, from £7,000 SEO black holes to social media crises that went globally viral for all the wrong reasons.
We don't just celebrate the f*ck-ups; we extract the tactical blueprints you need to avoid them. If you are a business owner or a CMO looking for a competitive advantage that only comes from real-world experience, this is your weekly masterclass in resilience and strategy.
- Listen for: Raw stories from top brands, ex-McKinsey strategists, and industry disruptors.
- Learn from: The errors that cost thousands and the recoveries that saved careers.
- Get ahead by: Turning other people's disasters into your unfair market advantage.
It's time to stop pretending everything is perfect and start learning from the biggest mistakes from the world's best.
