Welcome to the first episode of Podcast Hackers! I’m your host, Craig Hewitt. Today, I welcome Enrico Lugnan to the show. Enrico is a social media marketing strategist for the social media marketing agency, Avenik. He shares with me the ups and downs of launching Avenik’s podcast called The Avenik Interviews. Enrico and his team distribute the podcast through a highly successful private Facebook group and other social media sites such as LinkedIn, with the aim of helping people learn more about social media marketing.
