How To Make Yourself Heard At Networking Events

If your business can’t run without you, you don’t own a business. You have a job.

Most owners start with the same vision - more income, freedom and time. Then, reality kicks in, and suddenly you’re buried in the day to day of chasing sales, answering everything yourself and wondering why growth still feels hard.

In this episode, Rod and Darren unpack why so many businesses get stuck there and how to break out of it. This is about building something that has value beyond you - something that can grow, scale and eventually run without you being glued to it. If that’s the goal, this conversation is essential listening.

More about Rod

Rod Kuchta is a business coach who works with UK-based small business owners to help them regain control of their companies, their time, and their long-term goals. Drawing on a background in sales leadership and business development, he specialises in helping owners step out of the day-to-day operations of their businesses so they can focus on growth, strategy, and building teams that can operate independently.

Through coaching, Rod helps business owners identify the gap between where their business is today and the vision they originally set out to achieve. His approach focuses on empowering teams, improving processes, strengthening leadership, and creating businesses that are sustainable, scalable, and ultimately valuable enough to sell or step away from.

Rod works with entrepreneurs who want more freedom, more time, and a business that delivers the lifestyle and financial results they originally started out to create.

How Your Small Business Can Grow Without You Doing All The Work - Rod Kuchta

Going viral is NOT a strategy!

In today’s episode of The Engaging Marketeer, Bron Watson breaks down one of the biggest misconceptions in modern marketing: visibility without direction.

Likes and connections aren’t a strategy, and neither is going viral. Bron explains why marketing only works when the long, medium and short game are aligned, and why every action has to answer one simple question: what are we doing next?

Awareness on its own doesn’t pay the bills, and engagement on its own doesn’t grow a business. If it doesn’t lead somewhere meaningful, it’s just noise. This isn’t simply a theory, either - Bron built and continued to lead her business through a double cancer diagnosis. So when she talks about resilience, long games and strategy, she’s speaking from lived experience, not just marketing textbooks.

If you’re serious about growing your business, building loyal fans and making your marketing drive revenue, this episode will challenge the way you think.

More about Bron:

Bron Watson is an Australian marketing strategist, business owner, and founder of The Social Coach and The Serenity Project. With decades of experience across corporate marketing, healthcare, and education, Bron combines commercial insight with deep personal resilience.

After building a successful marketing business, Bron was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2017 and later with multiple myeloma in 2023. While continuing to run her business, she developed The Serenity Project, a framework that blends science, mindset, and practical resilience to help people navigate adversity.

Bron now works with small business owners to build raving fans through strategic marketing, while also advocating for a more human, trauma-aware approach to healing and healthcare.

Bron Watson, The Social Coach, On Her Double Cancer Diagnosis

Ever wanted to build a new life in another country?

In today's episode of The Engaging Marketeer, immigration expert Oleg Schindler reveals his experience of moving to Canada, and how others can follow the same path. This conversation goes far beyond visas and paperwork, however.

Oleg and Darren dive into how immigration systems work behind the scenes, the political realities shaping decisions and why these conversations matter whether you run a business, lead a team or are simply curious about how the world is changing.

More about Oleg

Oleg Schindler is a licensed Canadian immigration consultant and the founder of two immigration practices based in Toronto and Ottawa. Originally from Ukraine, Oleg immigrated to Canada himself, giving him first-hand experience of the immigration process and the challenges faced by newcomers.

He specialises in helping individuals and families secure permanent residence, work permits and study pathways, as well as guiding entrepreneurs through Canada’s Start-Up Visa programme. Alongside his consultancy work, Oleg runs a specialist marketing service for immigration law firms and regulated consultants, helping them grow their practices through industry-specific content strategies built on real-world testing.

With a background in history and political science, Oleg combines practical immigration expertise with a deep understanding of policy, economics and global affairs, offering clients clear, strategic advice tailored to their individual circumstances.
