Media Leads

We specialize in media lead generation, a new kind of business development giving you immediate sales conversations and powerful authority platforms.

We help business owners market their companies in innovative ways and expand their product offerings with new revenue streams.

Our job is to go beyond simply "getting you some new leads" and help you take over your industry in ways that none of your competitors are even considering.

We develop content platforms for business owners who want to grab attention in their industry - and quickly.  They need an ROI on their efforts, not simply "brand awareness".  But they also know the power of the age-old "tactic" of building meaningful relationships.  

We've taken that approach and built a system around it.  The power of one-on-one Connections, at scale.

Strategy + Action

Success in business and life is a constant back-and-forth of charting your course and taking the consistent steps everyday to move you forward.  Both ... are critical. My guests on this show range from entrepreneurs starting from scratch to leaders of companies looking to scale. For me, a show like this is all about joining forces with my guests to dig deep and create something new for you - whether that's a small insight that gets you unstuck ... or a path of massive growth through customized marketing and creative sales initiatives.

Concentric

Any successful relationship starts with finding your center - the truth at the core of who you are.  Only then can you develop the ability to truly connect with someone else.

Concentric is about aligning with people who share a common center.

This show gives you the tools and the skills to do just that through practical training, real-life stories and examples, and in-depth interviews with people who have taken this journey and come out the other side better for it.

Croft Media

We help B2B brands dominate their competition with revolutionary media ideas for business.

Every business is now a media company - either a good one or a bad one.  And if you don’t embrace this, your company or consultancy is going to die cold and alone in the shadow of your competitor. 

Remember…if you’re not speaking to your clients daily…someone else will.

The Jason Croft Show

The Jason Croft Show teaches the latest in business growth by bringing in experienced entrepreneurs as well as sales and marketing rock stars to discuss a new topic and cutting-edge tactics.  

Croft takes the same approach of in-depth interviewing of his guests that he’s become known for and adds a twist of fun - setting each episode in a moving vehicle and finding out what really drives them.

Empowering Coaches and Consultants with confidence and Video Visibility | Podcast host | Podcast guest | 30 yrs in Video

Ever notice how the "experts" getting all the attention are rarely the ones with actual experience?

That's why I've dedicated my career to amplifying voices that DESERVE to be heard.

As the founder of Media Leads and host of Strategy & Action and co-host of The Lion's Edge, I help accomplished leaders go from "unknown experts" to visible authorities in their space.

After 30+ years creating content around the globe (from award-winning films to exotic animal shows in Alaska), I discovered my true genius:

Pulling YOUR genius out and packaging it for the world to experience.

Through Media Leads, we build Video Visibility Platforms for coaches and consultants who are tired of watching less qualified "gurus" dominate their market.

On Strategy & Action, I dive deep with accomplished executives and professionals who've built something meaningful... and now help others do the same. No fluff. No recycled LinkedIn wisdom. Just real conversations about what it ACTUALLY takes to turn expertise into impact.

Want to turn your expertise into the recognition it deserves?

I’m the architect for your business building project. I guide you through the creative process of turning your passion into a stable, thriving online business – without the struggle.
Most entrepreneurs either get stuck in “analysis paralysis” or feel swamped because they’re working on too many things at once, running in circles instead of making progress. 

To get the ball rolling you need to take a step back, zoom out and design the simplest functional solution, map out a plan and break it down until the next step becomes obvious. 

That happens to be my genius zone.

If you've been on a call with me, chances are, you've heard me say it 😊

I'm sharing the lowest moments of my 20+ years in business (reading a tiny teaser in the video below)

But it isn't really about my "nose in the dirt" moment or what I've learned from it.

It's about why I do what I do and, more importantly, what YOU can take away from it for your own business and life.

The Entrepreneurial Experiment: A gentle & creative way to help coaches & educators take their big mission to market. Mentoring + done-for-you tech. Author of Taming the Tech Monster, podcaster. Proudly owned by 3 dogs

You bring the vision. I help you bring it to life - simply and smoothly.
So your business finally runs with ease (yes, even the tech).

You’re not here to duct-tape tech tools together, or tinker with funnels ...
You’re here to do work that matters ... and be paid well for it.

But if your programs and courses don't sell as well as they should, given how good they are ... if the back-end of your business is a mess of sticky notes, broken links, and scattered tools…
if things feel fragile - like one small slip could make you look unprofessional or cost you a client…
It’s not because you’re lazy. Or disorganised. Or bad with tech.

It’s because no one ever showed you how to build systems that fit you.

Here’s what most “just use this tool” advice misses:

Tech ≠ systems.
Systems don’t need tech.
But tech without systems? That’s chaos.

The bridge between your brilliant ideas and reliable systems that make your business run like a well-oiled machine is design - business design.
Rooted in clarity. Built around how you work best.
And that happens to be my zone of genius.

I help purpose-driven solopreneurs - coaches, educators, authors, and dog professionals - turn big-picture ideas into clear offers & smooth systems.

It might look like tech help on the surface…

But what you really walk away with is clarity, simplicity and flow in your business.

👉 You finally sound like the expert you are.
👉 Your offers feel aligned.
👉 Clients “get it” ... and want in.
👉 Your systems support the magic you bring, instead of getting in the way.

Not cookie-cutter funnels or “just use this tool” advice.
But a grounded, human-centred, design-first approach with a mama bear vibe.

So you feel supported and can show up confidently, run your business your way, and feel like the pro you already are.

Want your business to run smoothly? Want systems and offers that turn your visibility efforts into income?

How many books have you bought that you've never read?

How many books have you read but never put into practice what you learned?

Yep, I'm guilty as charged .. I admit I have way too many "virgin books" on my Kindle.

"I don't have the time," my monkey is quick to jump in, eager to pass on the blame.

But what if there was an easy, methodical way to not just read a book but IMPLEMENT the learning, one that doesn't take forever?

Well, turns out, there now is .. Nick Hutchison created it.

Given that he's the founder of BookThinkers, a digital marketing agency that helps non-fiction authors promote and market their books, it had to be in book format, of course :-) 

Grab a coffee and listen to our 12-minute conversation where Nick shares 

👉 the biggest mistake authors make when it comes to marketing their books, followed by 
👉 crucial tips for how to implement and make the most of the books you read.

And of course, I highly recommend you check out the new book (link in the comments)
