My guest this week is Pete Walter, one time TV producer now a media consultant who recently set up his own marketing services company.

We talk about how Pete set up BuzzRamp and the challenges he faced, and how his subscription model works and differs from traditional marketing agencies.

Welcome to episode 178 of the Marketing and Finance Podcast.

We chat about:

  • What a TV producer does
  • How to deal with difficult media questions
  • Why Pete decided to launch a marketing business
  • How Pete’s company helps small businesses
  • Where it fits in with other agency solutions
  • The biggest challenge Pete faced setting up BuzzRamp

Who is Pete Walter?

After university Pete wanted to be an author and to run nightclub events for under 16s. When he failed at both of these, he worked his way up in television. Pete was a BBC producer for a range of politics, comedy and detective shows.

Moving between TV genres, Pete realised he didn’t enjoy his job. He was briefly a singer/songwriter and hosted a cabaret night. He became a media trainer and still runs that business. This led him to marketing and PR, and he now runs a marketing agency helping people produce content. He loves making ideas happen and says that’s what drives him.
