After getting my Master’s Degree in social sciences with a major in Media & Global Communication from the University of Helsinki (I did and obtained my Bachelor Degree of Science in Communications from Lugano’s USI – Università della Svizzera Italiana/University of Lugano ), and having worked as a journalist, I decided to take the leap and started my own online business.
I’m all about taking action and wanted to live life on my own terms, and that’s what led me to the decision to become a business owner and embrace the entrepreneurial space.


In my work (my company, 360 Entrepreneur, is part of Suomen Yrittäjät – the Federation Finnish Enterprises), I focus on helping entrepreneurs, business owners, coaches, authors, speakers, and independent podcasters get more exposure, generate leads and drive prospects into their pipeline with podcasting, systems, and podcast guesting.
Whether it's planning and launching a show from scratch, focusing on the marketing side of things, implementing automated systems into your workflow or leverage podcast guest interviews as an actual asset for your business, I always bring my A game and go out of my way to provide my clients and students with value and practical, no-nonsense advice.
Having been dubbed ‘Podcasting Advocate’ by Forbes and one of the ‘Unicorn-Level Digital Marketing Experts' by Inc., I carry out my work and try to help indie podcasters in different ways. Firstly, this website, which undoubtedly is my online headquarters. Here, I share advice through different types of content.
My newest show, the Podcaster Lab, helps you become an independent podcaster through tips, case-studies and a series of podcasting experiments that I run. Think of me as a “podcasting Guinea pig”: I experiment with different podcasting-related topics and then take back the curtain so that you can see what works (and you can implement) and what doesn’t.

Moreover, I've been behind the mic also with Haaga-Helia Porvoo Stories, the official podcast of the Haaga-Helia University of Applied Sciences Porvoo Campus (Finland) and the podcast series Communication Rights in the Digital Age (of the conference by Helsinki Media Policy Research Group, the University of Helsinki, the ECREA Communication Law and Policy Section and the Euromedia Research Group).
My blog features quick reads and in-depth guides, whereas my YouTube channel brings you more strategies and tutorials delivered in video form.
‘Podcasting Advocate Yann Ilunga'

As a podcasting consultant, I carry out my work primarily through one-on-one consulting calls and focus on three topics: podcasting, automated systems, and podcast guesting.
The scope of my consulting work varies depending on the client. It can be crafting a podcasting strategy to make podcasting part of one client's business to podcast marketing or being featured on other people's shows as a guest – all the way to implementing automated systems into your podcasting workflow.
I don’t limit myself to one-on-one work, though!
In fact, I've also created a series of video courses (some are free and others are premium) that revolve around podcast hosting, guesting and systems.
Additionally, I help beginner and experienced podcasters through video lessons and live trainings inside the Podcast Growth Hub membership site.

Some may refer to me as one of the ‘Movers and Shakers’ of the podcasting industry for a couple of reasons.
In addition to being the creator of 5 different podcasts, I’m the founder of the world’s BIGGEST digital conference for podcasters: the Podcast Success Summit.
Organized for the first time in 2016, the online conference has featured hundreds of speakers (80 in its first edition!) – including some of the best podcasters, podcasting experts and digital marketers around such as John Lee Dumas, Pamela Slim, Jordan Harbinger, Sue B. Zimmerman, and New York Times bestselling authors Jay Baer and Joel Comm.
‘Unicorn-Level Digital Marketer'
Even though I really enjoy working and teaching online, I LOVE meeting people and share my knowledge in person.
As a speaker, I’ve had the pleasure to educate, inspire and entertain audiences internationally, at conferences and events such as Australia’s We Are Podcast, Digi Day, Amsterdam’s B. Business and the Entrepreneur Speakers Network Sydney.

When I’m not busy working with my clients, teaching my students, speaking at events or interview some of the world’s top music industry experts and contemporary music stars for The Jazz Spotlight Podcast (my show in the music industry), I can probably be found traveling somewhere around the world.

From cycling across the Golden Gate bridge, driving Australia’s Great Ocean Road, California’s Pacific Coast Highway or by Ireland’s Atlantic coast, checking downtown Toronto from the CN Tower (the former world’s tallest building), feeding kangaroos, (try to) ride waves at Byron Bay or snorkeling at the Great Barrier Reef, traveling around Europe or chilling and enjoying breath-taking views of Locarno from the Cardada mount…I never have enough of traveling!
Hope to meet you in person one day!
