Welcome to An Agency Story podcast, I'm your host Russel.
In this episode we're joined by Lori Asbury, the inspiring founder of CMOco, based in Knoxville, Tennessee.
Lori shares her remarkable transition from a high-flying executive career in television to establishing her own business after a job loss and a desire to put down roots.
I absolutely love Lori’s energy and resourcefulness in running her business. Be sure to check out the part of the conversation around how her business navigated the COVID era and some important takeaways to help navigate some of the recent economic slowness within the marketing industry.
Her story at the end is just as epic, as she tells of an unexpected gift from a client, a lighthearted twist to her outstanding professional journey.
Enjoy the story.
