Top Quotes from Mark Asquith:

- “I interview very specific entrepreneurs about very specific problems and how we can overcome them.”

- “There are so many people that kind of only just waking up to new media, and waking up to digital marketing on the whole.”
- “It’s fantastic because I can ask so much about very specific problems… bringing these experts on to talk about very specific problems, and helping people take action on the back of that. I’m loving that.”
- “Even up until probably April last year, I was kind of ignorant to the power of podcasting as a marketing tool and suddenly my own life’s been turned upside down just by sitting in front of the microphone and talking about what I actually like. It’s just amazing.”
- “The video side of things – I find really distracting.”
- “One of the interesting problems that blogging brings as well when you’re consuming that content is it’s a very active pastime. You have to be looking at the blog to read it.”
