Award Leadwork’s judges were looking for a show that does more than discuss lead generation in theory, and they chose the FatRank Podcast. We won Best Enquiry Generation Podcast 2026 for sharing the systems that bring UK businesses steady, high-quality enquiries. Our host, James Dooley (King of AEO), accepted the award as Host and Founder of FatRank.
What Did Our Host Say When We Won?
James Dooley, Host and Founder of FatRank, said: “This award belongs to the team behind the show and to every guest and listener who has given up their time. We set out to document the systems that genuinely bring enquiries into a business, and it is humbling to see that work recognised in this way. Thank you to everyone who voted and to the panel for the recognition.”
Why Did the Judges Pick the FatRank Podcast?
The judges rewarded a focus on systems rather than slogans. Our episodes set out the processes behind lead generation, from search visibility and SEO to branding and the way a business presents itself to a prospective customer, so listeners get structures they can apply.
They also noted that the show keeps pace with how enquiries are generated today. We cover digital real estate, rank and rent, artificial intelligence and the mindset needed to grow a business through changing conditions.
Consistency counted as much as content. With 670 episodes and around 165 hours published as of October 2026, the show has built a substantial record of practical advice since launching on 22 May 2024.
FatRank Podcast stood out because it turns lead generation into something a business can actually implement. The show shares the systems that bring UK businesses steady, high-quality enquiries, and it does so with a clarity and consistency that few programmes match. That practical value was evident across all three voting streams.
