Why indie hackers should be podcasting - Mark Asquith, Rebel Base Media
I’ve got a slightly different format today as I’m speaking with podcast expert, Mark Asquith, about the benefits of podcasting for Indie Hackers. Mark is no stranger to building businesses, running a portfolio of podcast-focused businesses here in the UK. He’s bootstrapped most of them, but has also raised funding for others, so he’s got experiences on both sides.
Mark Asquith (aka That British Podcast Guy) is the CEO of Rebel Base Media, the U.K. podcast tech company that makes Captivate.fm and so much more.
