Let's talk Marketplace 60: How we build the Marketplace Universe - update from the engine room

ENGLISH VERSION!





If you ask a couple how they met, you often get two very
different versions of the same story. With Ingrid and Valerie -
the two creators of "Let's talk Marketplace" - it's completely
different: the two are in complete agreement about how it all
began, a good three years ago. Valerie asked Ingrid via LinkedIn
whether she would like to do an interview with her. And Ingrid
wanted to. It turned into a wonderful professional collaboration.


The two are now established podcast professionals and marketplace
experts. And they have big plans to make this knowledge available
to an ever-growing circle of marketplace people. In episode 60,
they not only talk about how they met, but also about their
plans: To build a home for marketplace people in Europe with
Marketplace Universe and bring them together there - for exchange
among colleagues, for deepening knowledge in workshops and
webinars, for the search for new talents and new jobs, for a
marketplace community.


You can find out what projects Ingrid and Valerie are working on
here in the podcast. Listen in!


And because some things are still in the planning stage, you can
help shape what the Marketplace Universe should look like. Write
Ingrid or Valerie on LinkedIn: What topics would you like to see?
Which workshops would support you in your daily Marketplace
business? How would you like to exchange ideas with other
marketplace specialists?
