Episode #22: Drew Davis – Top Marketing Keynote Speaker, Muppet Man

Drew Davis, the Marketing Keynote Speaker, Bestselling Author, Content Marketing Influencer, and Entrepreneur joins the show to share his journey from producing for The Today Show and The Muppets to world-renowned speaker. Drew is a hilarious and electric speaker who consistently wows his audiences and frequently gets invited back to events to speak again. I first heard of Drew earlier this year when he was announced as a keynote speaker for this year’s Content Marketing World. I quickly became a fan of his social media content and am obsessed with his bestselling book Brandscaping, which is a must-read for any marketer. Turns out he’s just as entertaining and insightful in podcast form! This episode covers everything from how he approaches every speech to some Muppet impressions. Here’s a small sample of what you will hear in this episode:

  • How Drew’s background with The Today Show and The Muppets led to his speaking career
  • Drew’s favorite “brandscapes” of all time, featured in his bestseller Brandscaping
  • Why speaking is a good way to generate leads
  • How to stay creative when speaking
  • Drew’s creative process preparing for an upcoming speech
  • Why speaking is like being a professional athlete and a comedian
  • How to best integrate a sponsorship into a story
  • Why you have to stay curious to be creative
