Deb Mason and Alex Glass guest on The Business Show on Marlow FM 11th August 2022

On The Business Show on Marlow FM on 11th August 2022, Alex Glass of easyStorage and Deb Mason of Geeves Mastermind Club joined me to talk about their respective businesses, and to discuss a range of business news stories. 

You can connect with Deb at https://www.linkedin.com/in/deborahvmason-socialmediaconsultant/ and the Geeves website is at https://www.gmclubltd.com/.

Alex’s profile is at https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexandercglass/ and the easyStorage website is at https://www.easystorage.com/.

My first music choice was “Paranoid” by Black Sabbath, as they’d closed the Commonwealth Games with that gentle track!  You can hear it and see their live performance last week at https://youtu.be/R46nrfM964c.

I spoke first to Alex about easyStorage and the things that make them different from other storage businesses, partly because they both collect and deliver – quite enlightening!

Deb then talked about Geeves Mastermind Club and how they enable small businesses to collaborate to help them grow and flourish.

“Eye of the Tiger” by Survivor was Deb’s choice of music, because she is a survivor of past business challenges, and you have to pick yourself up and be a survivor.  Hear it for yourself at https://youtu.be/btPJPFnesV4.

Alex’s choice of business news story broke our rules (with my blessing!) – there is no link to the article because that would have gone against Alex’s point – there’s too much news and we shouldn’t be reading it all as it’s far too depressing.  We had quite a conversation about that!

And his choice of music was Eric Idle’s “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life”, for the obvious reason following on from that conversation!  Hear it at https://youtu.be/SJUhlRoBL8M.

Deb chose two stories for us, which were very much linked so we talked about them together.  The first is at https://www.socialmediatoday.com/news/linkedin-adds-new-link-sticker-option-to-help-drive-more-traffic-from-your/628956/ while the other is at https://www.searchenginejournal.com/head-of-instagram-admits-redesign-is-not-yet-good/459198/ - the common theme is whether social media businesses are looking after their customers.  Are they?

I closed the show with a reminder of Olivia Newton John, who we lost this week – yo0u can hear it at https://youtu.be/6phwuXPafuA.
