The Pandemic Couldn't Stop Him: A Conversation with Andrew O'Brien

Let'st Talk With Coach Che Marville

Let's Talk welcomes Andrew O'Brien, CEO, Co-Founder of Obie & Ax and serial entrepreneur, into the pod. The Pandemic didn't stop him from building a full-service podcast firm producing podcasts for leading brands, charities, and government agencies. A globally respected leader and member of the Forbes Business Council, he has successfully grown and sold four companies. He was a Partner and Chief of Revenue Officer at Buytopia; he worked alongside Michele Romanow (Dragon from CBC's Dragons' Den). During their years together at Buytopia, the team had successfully incubated SnapSaves (Acquired Nasdaq: GRPN) and subsequently purchased 17 competitors along the way and won many accolades. And then, four years ago, he changed his life and faced his struggle with addiction. And his new company was born out of a passion for discussing addiction and mental health. He realized the power of the podcast medium as a tool for communication, and he assembled a team to build podcasts for large companies and government agencies. So please take a listen, share the show and tell us what you think.
