Rory Sutherland: Creative People are Frustrating | Ep 45

In this episode of the All Things Business – The Podcast, Frazer meets Rory Sutherland, the accidental marketeer and Classics aficionado, takes us on a whimsical detour from the traditional paths of marketing into the labyrinthine alleyways of direct marketing and psychological insights.
He fell into advertising rather serendipitously after a classical education, where Latin and Greek tragically underprepared him for the world of coupons and direct mail. He shares his journey with the ease of a raconteur, peppering the conversation with anecdotes and epiphanies.

Mike Tillson & Matt Thompson: Northamptonshire Limited Report

The final All Things Business – The Podcast of 2023 welcomes Mike Tillson, Corporate Finance Partner at Grant Thornton LLP, and Matt Thompson, Corporate Partner at Howes Percival LLP. They’re here to mark the release of the 2023 Northamptonshire Limited Report, which their firms have collaborated to produce.
This is the eleventh edition of the report, and a lot has changed since that first edition. Originally produced by Grant Thornton, the report is based on a review of the Top 100 privately owned businesses in the region, providing an insight into the region’s economic makeup. Ben comments that he is often championing Northamptonshire as more than just shoes and high-performance engines and that this survey illustrates that point handily.
