#67: Joe Copeman - SVP Sales ACAST

In his own words, Joe was doing an 'elongated graduate scheme for 13 years', before he started Acast in the UK. He moved from medium to medium in various sales jobs, including Global Radio, ITV, Pearl & Dean & Sky, holding out a belief this would all be for a reason one day. Then the opportunity arose, Acast was born, and this was a chance to channel all previous experiences into this new baby. From 3 people in one small room in Kings Cross, Acast a medium from scratch (no-one was advertising in podcasts yet), and Joe oversaw the journey from the first £5k booking to see Acast become the largest podcast company in the world. Culture was always the No. 1 priority above everything else, and Joe assembled a team 60 strong in the UK, with an aim of everyone citing Acast as the best job they ever had. Top Tip: Ensure people do what they are best at. And that we can all poke fun at ourselves. #InspiringLeadership #leadership #CEOs #MotivationalSpeaker #teamcoach #Boards Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
