The CRM Strategy Co ltd

CRM is under appreciated, under utilised and misunderstood in almost every business.

It's not just for your sales team and it's not just sending emails.

We work with agencies, start-ups, scale-ups and globally recognised brands to acquire more customers, grow through retention, close more deals and forge unstoppable growth ✨

Co-Founder

In Growth We Trust

We started In Growth We Trust due to the lack of entertaining UK based marketing podcasts. 

In our first six months we’ve broken into the UK charts multiple times and built a listener base in the thousands. 

Join us on our journey to become one of the world’s best growth marketing podcasts.

RECOMMENDATIONS PLEASE! 🙏

Videographer needed in Berlin for 22nd Jan 🎥

We're hosting our next Performance Marketing Minds event in Berlin on 22nd January, and I’m looking for a talented videographer to help us capture the night and turn it into a library of world-class content.

This event brings together some of the smartest people in Performance Marketing, and our speakers will be dropping serious knowledge on stage. I want to share this value with our community in the weeks and months after the event.

What we’re looking for:

🎬 1 x 45–60 sec highlight reel

 A polished, engaging showcase of the event atmosphere, crowd, venue shots, speakers and energy.

📱 Short-form content library

 Dozens of bite-sized clips (20–30 seconds) from the speaker sessions. Think high-impact knowledge bombs that we can drip-feed across LinkedIn, TikTok and Instagram.

📸 Event photography

 A selection of strong stills of the speakers, audience, networking moments and the venue.

This is a great opportunity for someone looking to work closely with a growing marketing community and be part of an event series that will continue throughout 2026.

If you know someone who would be a great fit, please tag them below or send me a message directly.

Thanks in advance! 🙏
