I like to think of myself as pretty savvy when it comes to social media and marketing, but there are some people who have just nailed it. Scott Stratten is one of those special people.
A legit marketing guru, Scott is the founder of Unmarketing.com and author of the best selling book Unmarketing – Stop Marketing Start Engaging, He is widely known for his forthright, no-holds-barred opinions nearly as much as he’s known for his genius marketing ideas.
Like many other entrepreneurs, Scott’s started his career as a corporate employee. About four years into his job, he realized that selling other people’s products just wasn’t what he wanted to spend the rest of his life doing. It didn’t take long for him to quit his job after this realization.
With only had 64 cents in his bank account, he was motivated and ready to embark on his new journey.
Slowly and steadily Scott started building his own training company and it’s clear that his hard work has paid off because today Scott is known as a thought leader when it comes to content marketing.
