Welcome to TURNDOG TALKS TO: the time of the week where I interview people with a story to share.

Today’s wonderful and whimsical interview comes in the form of Dave Kerpen’s fine words – the man behind Likeable Media. Dave was one of the first people I came across on Twitter and knew he was the perfect candidate for The Successful Mistake. I wasn’t wrong either because this interview is full of great tips and inspiring ways.

Watch it and find out for yourself 🙂
