Now one of the Top Fifteen podcasts to listen to (just behind Oprah!) and close to 900,000 downloads a month, Siu has been creating and marketing hot content for years. As half of the Marketing School podcast (with Neil Patel), host of Growth Everywhere, and CEO of Single Grain, Siu is a renowned marketing genius and expert. But how did he get here and what makes him so good?
