In this episode of Agency Breakthrough, Kuba and Gray chat with James Carbary, founder of Sweet Fish Media, about his journey pivoting the agency from a blog writing shop to a trailblazing podcast studio to now building full “media brands” for B2B companies.
James shares the breakthrough moment that changed everything for Sweet Fish—realizing podcasting alone was limiting and expanding to broader media brands that allow wider reach across channels.
James also discusses the books that have shaped his thinking, and shares examples of consumer media brands that are doing it right.
The conversation explores the role of guests vs solo shows for thought leadership; the importance of identifying your “villain” and uniting your market against it; and much more.
