Meet Your Hosts

Welcome to Black Hills Influence. We're so glad you're here!

SoDak Marketing presents - Black Hills Influence. A podcast where we look to chat about leadership, influence, and becoming a better leader, boss, employee, mom or dad, or just a better human. We'll explore case studies, difficult topics and bring in local and regional leaders for this weekly podcast.

Black Hills Influence is hosted by Brian Maruska and Chris Larson.  

Say hello to Brian. A husband and a father first, Brian owns a local online marketing agency, SoDak Marketing, supporting local business growth through quality and strategic online marketing. Looking to learn every day but also enjoys teaching and motivating strangers and friends to be better humans.

Meet Chris. A South Dakota native who has a taste for good times, exploring, music and memes. Still in the 9-5 grind, Chris brings real life experience to the podcast. When partnered with Brian, who knows what will come out of their mouths.
