    I'm a mom to three little ones who are my world. Beyond that, my mission is to empower those around me to ignite the magic within them by allowing my energy to flow fully and freely through everything that I do.


    This means that my experiences in life are shared to support and empower others on their journey to achieving their dreams. I wholeheartedly believe that everyone has a unique gift that only they can tap into - it's a matter of discovering and connecting with this. This magic comes in many forms and is different for each individual. No matter what your vision or goal, you have the power to achieve them with the right mindset and support.


    I found my "people" online when I started looking for ways to launch my business so I can have flexibility and freedom with my time and how I spend it.


    I spent years searching for my worth and joy from others only to realize the cliche of finding joy from within is true and I live it daily.


    Today, I have conversations with people I love and am inspired by to spread their magic and spark the magic within others through my podcast and content.

    Oct 15 2024

    Welcome to another electrifying episode of the Boss Uncaged Podcast! In today's installment, titled "Marcus Enhanced Profile," our host S. A. Grant sits down with Marcus, co-founder of Titan Marketer and a pioneer in the YouTube advertising space. Join us as Marcus shares his intriguing journey from an industrial electrician to a leading digital marketing strategist.


    Marcus delves into the transformative impact of Alex Hormozi on his business philosophy, the importance of having a targeted audience, and the power of effective storytelling in content creation. He also unveils valuable insights on navigating different advertising platforms, leveraging AI tools, and the pitfalls to avoid in mobile app advertising.


    Through a blend of personal anecdotes and professional experiences, Marcus and S. A. Grant explore essential strategies for entrepreneurial success and the compelling need to leave behind a legacy that inspires future generations. Whether you're an entrepreneur, coach, or service-based business owner, this episode is brimming with actionable advice tailored just for you.


    Tune in and discover how to capture attention, engage your audience, and skyrocket your business to new heights. Let’s get started!


    My name is Marcus Svedin, and I'm a YouTube Ads Specialist and the Marketing Director of Titan Marketer - a bloody ripper company that specializes in YouTube advertising.


    I started off as an industrial electrician, but after injuring my knee while playing with my son at an indoor trampoline arena, I decided to look for a different career path. That's when I stumbled upon advertising, starting with Facebook and email marketing. But as YouTube became more popular, I shifted my focus to that platform.


    In 2019, my mate and co-founder, Ben Jones, and I decided to exclusively focus on YouTube advertising because we found it gave a better return on investment than Facebook. We've been refining our approach and consider ourselves experts in the field. We love helping businesses of all sizes reach their target audience and grow their brand through YouTube advertising.
