Stop Guessing at Google — Ben Bradley on Getting Found, Getting Clicked, and Getting Clients

Is your business showing up on Google — or just hoping it is? In this episode of Vision to Venture, Neil Betts sits down with Ben Bradley, founder and director of Cosmik Carrot, a digital marketing agency he's been building for over 18 years. Ben started Cosmik Carrot in 2008 with a simple belief — that great web design and smart digital strategy should help real businesses grow, not just tick boxes. What began as a one-person studio has become a trusted agency helping founders and small business owners across the UK get found on Google, attract the right clients, and grow with confidence. In this honest, no-fluff conversation, Ben and Neil dig into: → What Ben got completely wrong about marketing when he started out → Why Google visibility isn't just about rankings — and what it actually means for your revenue → The biggest mistakes local businesses make with SEO (and how to avoid them) → How to stay visible in a world where Google and AI keep changing the rules → The real story behind building a business that lasts nearly two decades Whether you're just starting out or trying to figure out why your website isn't pulling its weight, Ben brings the kind of practical, grounded advice that actually makes a difference. This one's a must-listen for any founder who wants to be found — not just exist. --- 🌐 Cosmik Carrot: https://www.cosmikcarrot.com 🚀 Vision to Venture programme: https://visiontoventure.uk Vision to Venture Academy [https://www.visiontoventure.uk/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=audio&utm_campaign=podcast_launch&utm_content=podcast_description] - Build a Business & Get Your First Customer - in Just 12 Weeks Vision to Venture YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/@GTN-VisiontoVenture/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=podcast_launch&utm_content=podcast_description] - See our interviews Go True North [https://www.gotruenorth.uk/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=audio&utm_campaign=podcast_launch&utm_content=podcast_description] - Business Evolution & Innovation That Ignites Growth & Makes Your Business Unforgettable. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Purpose, People and Building a Business That Matters

In this episode, I sit down with Marke Goode for a grounded and honest conversation about what it really takes to build a business that lasts. We explore the journey behind the scenes. The early decisions. The challenges that don’t make the highlight reel. And the mindset required to keep moving when things feel uncertain. Marke shares practical insight on leadership, clarity of direction and why purpose must sit at the heart of sustainable growth. We also unpack the balance between ambition and authenticity, and what founders often overlook when scaling. If you are building something of your own, or thinking about it, this conversation will give you perspective and a few useful nudges. A quick question for you after listening: What is one decision you are currently avoiding that could unlock your next level of growth? Let me know your thoughts.
