On this episode, I am joined by Mark Patchett, Marketing Director at Trouva (https://www.trouva.com/).   Trouva is marketplace platform for boutique retail shops dotted across the UK and Europe. Trouve curates products, accepts payments and fulfils orders on behalf of listed partner stores.  They are really in the business of logistics. The platform eliminates the work of maintaining an online store by providing a shop with the software, customer service, and delivery teams needed to keep the experience consistent.   Mark is the marketing lead at Trouva - in just 18 months, Trouva have grown from the seed round to be one of Europe's top 5 fastest growing tech businesses at 1,509% growth. We talk about how marketing has played a central role in the astronomical growth Trouva has undergone in such a short period of time and exactly how Trouva works across the EU.
