On The Business Show on Marlow FM on 15th August 2024 my guests were marketing expert Deb Mason and executive coach Amanda Bouch, who joined me to talk about their work, and to discuss a range of business news stories.
I started the show with one from the Hilary playlist – “Oblivious” from Aztec Camera. You can hear it at https://youtu.be/2B2Sc2G_5ZA?si=1fHmy9MFGLMGtC5N.
Deb then spoke about her work with Clean Linen and Workwear, including how they professionally launder products for the hospitality sector, with a range of reasons that doing it at home is not a good idea! We also talk about how they ensure they’re eco-friendly.
You can connect with Deb via https://www.linkedin.com/in/deborahvmason-socialmediaconsultant/ and their website is at https://www.cleanservices.co.uk/ .
Amanda then spoke about her work running Amanda Bouch Consulting including a discussion about the scale of businesses where she delivers coaching and the pros and cons of working with larger businesses, as well as the common theme within her work.

Her music choice was “We didn’t start the fire” by Billy Joel, because she loves him and loves the song, and it has a great message. You can hear it at https://youtu.be/eFTLKWw542g?si=UGXiuEBinrl3wuCQ.
We stayed with Amanda for her business news story, which was https://hrzone.com/performance-management-doesnt-work-for-98-of-chros/ - what even is that, and why isn’t it working?
We then played Deb’s choice of music – “Dirty Laundry”, by Nickelback. No prizes for guessing why she chose it! You can hear it at https://youtu.be/9iUOFerRum8?si=RP_NJ-47xu_g_yIQ.
Deb then chose for us the story at https://www.marketingweek.com/why-it-works-meerkats-insurance-memorable/ - it’s known as a fluent device and has had great success, but why? And Amanda shared a very relevant and surprising part of her past with us, as part of the answer!
We then talked about my story - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgedy443ldqo - how mad to make the decision the did with no consultation or announcement, but how great to then listen to their customers and do a U-turn.
The last song is another from the Hilary playlist – Squeeze with “Cool for Cats”- you can hear it at https://youtu.be/uJ2cEc_TCH8?si=v1C0at4fTcUXkucn .
