Podcast appearances

The Diary Of A CEO (recurring guest)

Priestley has appeared on The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett on multiple occasions. Episodes have covered business scaling strategies, personal branding, demand generation, and the transition from freelancer to business owner. Priestley's practical, framework-oriented approach aligns with DOAC's emphasis on actionable advice from practitioners.

Significance

As a recurring guest, Priestley represents the core of DOAC's business and entrepreneurship programming. His multiple appearances contrast with the one-off celebrity interview model and reflect Bartlett's practice of returning to guests who resonate with the audience. Priestley's work on personal branding, the idea that entrepreneurs should position themselves as the "key person of influence" in their field — is thematically connected to Bartlett's own career trajectory.
