The Prodcast - Episode 21 -Julia Gash, Julia Gash Enterpriseswis

This week we're joined by our very first Gift of the Year 2021 winner - the lovely Julia Gash. Julia is a serial entrepreneur who talks us through the fascinating journey she took to arrive in the position she's in today - largely creating artwork within her incredibly iconic hand drawn maps collection, making her a unique guest - an artist, business owner, product developer and sales-person all rolled into one - showing exactly how a one-woman-band can have a global impact on the gift industry.

 Welcome to the Product-Cast, aka the Prod-Cast, brought to you by Gift of the Year and supported by the Giftware Association. The podcast shines a spotlight on the UK’s thriving gift industry, providing insight into all aspects of the creative and sales process, from concept to retail and everything in between.

Each week you will meet a new key player from retail or supply and learn about their role within their business, their insights on the industry and, of course, to talk about their entry or previous winner in the Gift of the Year awards.

The Prod-Cast is hosted by Alex Ryan - a marketing consultant and a gift/product marketing expert having spent 6 years as Head of Marketing at Paladone Products Ltd before launching his own agency, Marketing 101.
