On the Podcast this week is a genuine Renaissance Man, Denis Goodbody. Denis has been in marketing and advertising for all of his career but even that doesn’t define him.
He has a great deal of skill in working with businesses to ensure that the right message is delivered to their customers in an interesting or creative way. It isn’t necessarily just for Businesses, it could be a charity or a politician.
I think there is a lot that B2B businesses can learn from this approach which has been pioneered in B2C Business.
Apart from that, Denis is an author and a Radio Broadcaster, producing his own show on Dublin City FM for the last ten plus years. He has also written a book on Salesmanship and selling.
He’s a great guest with a refreshing take on Marketing Communications and many other things.
As you might expect, he plays out on a unique song.
Denis’s Music show can be found at:

Denis’s Dublin Explorer show can be found at:

Our guest this week is Matthew McAllister, who is Founder of https://mortgagepropeller.com, an online platform that links people seeking mortgages with Mortgage Brokers.
Matthew is a very interesting guest and tells us about his early career as a Trader which he wanted to become after seeing the film Trading Places.
Matthew talks about resilience, especially working in the Trading industry where you might have to accept losses on your 60% of your positions and where 95% of the people leave in Year one
He tells us that while doing a Smurfit MBA, they went into the NDRC Accelerator and though he wasn’t sure what it was initially, he eventually got hooked on the Start Up world.
Matthew also tells us a great story about buying a house on his Credit Card because it was such a great price and he didn’t have the cash at the time.
During this time he talked to ten brokers and five banks and he learned everything there was to know about applying for mortgages, which was onerous and tedious. Matthew then got the idea for Mortgage Propellor from this experience. Online mortgage platforms are coming into their own during Covid and the move to digitisation.
Mathew is a great guest and he plays out on a great song

Mike is a pragmatic Marketeer and gives us a good idea of how small businesses are responding to Covid and the Lock Down.

Our guest this week is Sarah Cullen, who is an Expert in Energy Systems.
Sarah discusses the components that supply the Electric Power Grid and their various strengths and weaknesses.
In Ireland, we have a very high reliance on Wind Energy (which is generally a good thing) but it also needs to be backed up with, currently, fossil fuel generated electricity. This adds to our Carbon emissions.
Sarah asks why we are not, at least considering, Nuclear as an option for our electricity supply, not the least because, the total life cycle Carbon emissions are extremely low.
Consideration by Governmental bodies of Nuclear generated Electricity is prohibited by law in Ireland, which seems daft to me.
Sarah asks some reasonable and fair questions and wants to open the debate up about the best way forward considering that Electricity demand will grow in line with the increasing use of electricity in transport and new industries such as Data Centres.
Sarah is a great guest and plays out with an appropriate choice of song.
