Growth Hacking Japan w/ Donny Kimball

Growth Hacking. I’m sure most people outside of digital marketing have never heard the term including myself.  I’ve only learned about it this year and fortunately I happen to know one individual in Tokyo who belongs in this new field of business growth; a ghost in the social media machine. And he also happens to be prominent with his off-the-beaten path travel blog. Here’s Donny, dropping some relevant insights of the digital world and the Japanese behavior on social media . I also picked his brain for what drives him to travel all of over Japan; interacting and promoting the locals and a plethora of countryside treasures that most foreigner tourist don’t know about. This episode is somewhat of a clamor for all of you visiting Japan to hear and read Donny’s travels if you haven’t yet. The future of Japan’s tourism needs to alleviate the overwhelming traffic of Japan’s typical sightseeing spots and this country has so much more to offer to its ever increasing visitors. It’s good to see Donny is helping lead that charge. Donnykimball.com IG and FB: @donnyjkimball Visit Japan promo video:     https://youtu.be/WLIv7HnZ_fE https://gilesbowkett.com--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/madeinjapanpodcast/message
