From Rivers to ROl: Turning Passion Into a Profitable Business with Mark Soanes
Manage episode 504362113 series 3426967
What happens when you stop theorizing and fully commit? Mark Soanes turned a love for the outdoors into a leadership training company and has used email marketing to fuel growth for nearly two decades with Call of the Wild, a leadership and team development company in South Wales, UK, operating for 26+ years and known for its “green classroom” outdoor approach
Mark’s team uses the “green classroom” approach, which takes learning outside so people actually apply what they learn. That hands-on style has helped thousands of professionals communicate better, collaborate more, and see measurable ROI.
We also dig into how he blends segmentation, metrics, and a touch of AI to keep relationships warm and content consistent, plus the simple “cash on the table” test he still uses to decide which marketing bets are worth it.
