Don't Be Afraid Of Taking Daily Risks To See What Works

The Digital Slice Podcast is brought to you by The Friedman Group, LLC

Join Brad Friedman and Anna Kostroun as they chat about your marketing team's secret weapon, throwing spaghetti on the wall to see what sticks, trusting your gut and why women ought to be able to kick back and put their feet up on the conference room table.

Anna brings more than 20 years of marketing experience to NewRocket. With expertise in demand generation, brand building, experiential marketing, and sales engagement, Anna has delivered strategies and led teams that generate excitement and create revenue. Prior to NewRocket, she spent time in leadership roles at Rackspace Technology and Dell Technologies.

  • Anna talked about the need to be willing to change your opinion, change your course, when you get new and better information.
  • Anna talked about wanting your team to be creative, take risks and do big things.
  • Anna talked about the importance of listening.
