Who, What, & Why.
A web show for marketers, by marketers.
SpeedBumps Live! is a web show that celebrates the challenges and wins of modern marketers. We talk about the raw, unrefined learnings from failures and fumbles (a.k.a. Speed Bumps) and opportunities to slow down, reorient, and grow with grace.
Our show was born in April 2020, shortly after the pandemic canceled in-person networking events. We decided to hit the live button on our real conversations. Since then, we've been growing a community of eclectic contributors from various schools of thought (from CMOs to brain scientists). Our topics cover the spectrum of what marketing leaders should be thinking about.
Catch us live once a month, Friday at noon (EST), on LinkedIn & Youtube Live. If you miss it, you can catch the recording on LinkedIn or YouTube along with our 50+ episodes. Who dat, who dat, whooooo.
