Fintech Chatter Podcast

About This Episode -
Chad and Dexter talk about the early days of Revolut. When Chad joined as their first marketing leader, he was employee no25. Revolut had amassed a fairly impressive 50,000 customers at this stage.
Chad shares some of the strategies he harnessed to take the company to 20 MILLION customers just 5 years later.
Dexter also talks to Chad about his career post Revolut. And Chad shares why he believes the world of digital assets has even more potential to fulfil the early promise of Fintech.
And as one of the most accomplished marketers on the planet, Chad shares his tips for founders and gives some career advice to marketeers concerned about the rapid shake up in the industry by AI.
About Chad West
Chad was an early employee and Director of Global Marketing & Communications at Revolut. He helped transform the company from a fintech app that no one had heard of, into one of the fastest-growing technology companies in the world.
Chad's marketing philosophy is a little different. He doesn't believe in blowing money on expensive Super Bowl ads, but instead by bringing customer's as close to the business as possible, and scaling through advocacy.
From product marketing and community building, to referral campaigns and engagement, Chad has seen it all.
Chad began his career in Public Affairs supporting at the the time UK Prime Minister, David Cameron.
He then joined renowned Internet giant Rocket Internet, where he really cut his teeth in growth marketing, before joining Revolut as their first senior marketing hire in 2017.
Chad is now VP of Marketing for Argent and holds an advisory role with Sorare.
