B2B marketers expanding into the UK face not only cultural and media challenges but also the shifting dynamics of global communications. In this episode, Richard Cook speaks with Becca Chambers, award-winning PR and communications strategist, LinkedIn Top 0.1% contributor, and transatlantic comms leader.

Becca shares her journey from behind-the-scenes corporate communicator to building a personal brand with posts that regularly reach tens of millions of views. She offers candid insights into breaking into the UK market, navigating cynical media environments, and why authenticity matters more than ever in an age of fragmented channels and AI-driven discovery.

With stories spanning from cookie-based PR stunts to guiding executives across borders, Becca explains what North American B2B leaders must do to resonate with UK audiences and why strong personal brands within a company increasingly shape corporate reputation.
