Colin Gray speaks on content strategy, AI in business, and building the systems that let small teams create big things. Practical, experienced, and grounded in over 15 years of actually doing it.
Enquire About SpeakingColin built The Podcast Host from a single blog into one of the world's leading podcasting resources, with over 2 million annual visitors, a top 1% podcast, and a SaaS product, Alitu, that grew to $1M+ ARR. Both businesses were acquired together in February 2026. He also holds a PhD in online education and spent six years as a university lecturer.
That combination — practitioner, educator, builder — shapes every talk he gives. No recycled frameworks. No theory without evidence. Just what's actually working, from someone who's been in the weeds of content and AI for over a decade.
Colin has spoken at Inbound, Podcast Movement, Youpreneur Summit, ProBlogger, and events across the UK, US, and Australia.
What Colin speaks about.
Each talk is tailored to your audience and event. These are the core topics — get in touch to discuss what would work best for your event.
Content That Compounds
Most businesses create content that disappears. This talk is about building a content strategy that keeps working long after you hit publish — the principles, the channels, and the systems that turn consistent publishing into real business growth.
AI Without Losing Your Voice
AI is transforming how content gets made. But most businesses either ignore it entirely or use it in ways that strip out everything that made their content worth reading. This talk is about where AI genuinely helps, where it gets in the way, and how to build workflows that accelerate output without sacrificing quality or authenticity.
Building a Content Engine for Your Team
A practical, hands-on session for teams who want to create more, better, consistently. Covers audience research, channel strategy, production workflows, and the modern AI tools that make a small team punch well above its weight. Attendees leave with a clear action plan.
How Audio Sells
Podcasting remains one of the highest-trust content formats available to businesses. This talk covers why audio builds audiences that other channels can't, and how to use it strategically — whether you're starting from scratch or looking to grow an existing show.
