15. Lewis Kemp - "Do You Want a Business or an Ego Boost?”

In this episode of Greater Manchester’s Greatest Minds, we sit down with Lewis Kemp, founder of Lightbulb Media, to talk about his unconventional journey from a council estate in Bolton to leading a thriving marketing agency.

 

Lewis shares how his early experiences-like door-knocking in the rain and facing constant rejection-shaped his resilience and business mindset.

 

He opens up about being diagnosed with autism at 30, how it reshaped his self-awareness, and why he believes success isn’t about vanity metrics but about freedom. We also dive into hard-hitting lessons on scaling a business, the real barriers to growth, and why he refuses to work with clients who let their egos get in the way.
