The Best Marketing Tactic to Get New Clients
from Freelance to Founder · host Millo
Matt runs Barrow Studio, a brand identity and strategy agency in Bristol, UK—and he's drowning in advice. Every newsletter, YouTube channel, and podcast promises a different "marketing golden ticket": build an email list, go all-in on social media, launch a course, appear on podcasts, host a podcast. The result? He's done none of it, and his agency still runs almost entirely on word-of-mouth referrals. Preston and Clay untangle the overwhelm and lay out a clearer, more honest framework for building a marketing system that actually fits where your business is right now.
