EP33: How to Create Great Content with Kathryn Strachan, CEO Copy House

Branded by Amelia Sordell

This week I am joined by Kathryn E. Strachan - the Founder and CEO of Copy House, a global, award-winning content marketing agency for fast-growing tech brands.
In this episode, Kathryn discussed her unorthodox journey into marketing from a degree in English Literature to working with some of the biggest tech companies in the world. She shares her reasoning for running an entirely remote organisation, how to hire the right people, the reality of being a solo founder, and so much more!
I loved being able to sit down with Kathryn to hear her story and I hope you find it as insightful as I did.
