Marketing Podcast with Andrew Warner Podcast Transcript

My guest for this week’s episode of the Duct Tape Marketing Podcast is Andrew Warner, founder of Mixergy, a program that interviews experts to help you grow your business. He and I discuss his new initiative, Bot Academy, and what your business needs to know about bots today.

Warner was one of the pioneers of the internet startup scene — starting online in 1997 and growing his business into a multi-million dollar venture.

After he and his brother achieved their first success, a $30 million per year Internet business, he wanted to share the gift of inspiration and knowledge with budding entrepreneurs, and with that, Mixergy was born. To achieve this end, he started Mixergy, where he invites proven Entrepreneurs to teach how they built their startups. Recently, Warner has been an angel investor in two of the early chat messaging platform companies (ManyChat & Assist) which eventually led him to build Bot Academy.

Questions I ask Andrew Warner:

• Why should people be paying attention to chat bots?
• What are some business use cases for chat bots?
• How will chat bots evolve?

What you’ll learn if you give a listen:

• Why people should pay attention to chat bots
• How chat bots can help your customer service
• How email and chat bots can work hand-in-hand
