Show notes

Sometimes the best fix is being provided by someone else, and there's no shame in using it. In fact, that useful tool may be exactly what your company needs, at a more fair price. Arielle and Bryan talk with James Avery of Kevel about how it's even more than buy vs build with podcast technology, in that is should be "buy and then build upon".
