The Unicorns Podcast connects you to some of the best and brightest founders, CEOs, executives, business owners, innovators, entrepreneurs and inspiring leaders who make things happen and inspire others.

Host Justin Kelly, former broadcast journalist and PR veteran, chats with leaders from across Australia and internationally on business strategy; what it takes to build a successful company; how to overcome challenges, and advice for those on a similar journey.

In this episode, Justin talks with Ryan Schram, President of IZEA, North America’s leading influencer marketing company and Natalie Giddings, CEO of Hoozu, Australia’s leading influencer marketing business.

North America’s leading influencer marketing company IZEA is expanding its global impact with the acquisition of Australian equivalent Hoozu.

More than just a dating app-like experience for influencers and brands, IZEA also provides a full suite of AI-assisted marketing technology, data and services.

With evident synergies for IZEA, Hoozu supports some of Australia’s best-known corporates including Bunnings, Super Cheap Auto, Ryobi and news.com.au, as well as US tech giant Netflix. Its talent management division, Huume, represents social media creators in the local market.
