Luca Allam
Podcast Growth & Positioning Expert
Former multinational CEO & Host of Luca's Insight Track
Successfully launching, marketing and positioning your podcast is so important. I haved worked in marketing with top CMOs for 20 years and as a CEO of a big media agency, I'm someone who knows the power of effective marketing when done right. A differentiated positioning and clear marketing approach is so important, especially in the cluttered world of podcasting! I truly believe podcasting is the future of media, content and creativity and I can help you to think differently about how to market your show and your brand, with effective positioning and marketing strategies. Within 12 months of launching my online show, and with very little budget, I've created an enviable subscriber base on YouTube (my preffered platform for long form content), successfully got my content licensed on big OTT platforms like OSN and Shahid, and even had a multi-media campaign including OOH locations promoting the show. My approach is to think business and marketing as well as thinking about producing great content. With 50 episodes recorded in the last 12 months, I will help provide you with tangible do's and dont's on how to launch, but more importantly, how to remain differentiated.

Bio
My professional background is in marketing, media and advertising. My most notable role to date was a regional CEO of top 3 multi-national media agency in MENA which i did for a number of years. As a CEO, I worked with countless marketeers, and managed hundreds of people across the region, delivering business objectives through new business expansion, client retention and a successful differentiated offering. In early 2024, i made a big life decision and stepped out of the corporate safety and into the start up world, as both an advisor, podcaster, public speaker and communication coach - bringing all my experience into passion projects, that when synced together, can create a profitable (and fun!) ecosystem.
My personal background - I grew up in the UK at a young age (boarding school started early) with my parents in Nigeria. I continued my studies in the UK, graduating with a BA and MA in Marketing & Advertising in 2005. I moved to Dubai in 2010, and have been here since. With a wife and 2 beautiful young sons, I decided to set an example to myself and my children - that it is possible to follow your dreams, provided you are ready to work hard for them!
