Welcome to Point Zero One – Hosted by Allen Fu.
This podcast is about real stories, real strategies, and real results. No fluff—just insights from the best in the game.

In this episode, we sit down with Rita, founder of Lick Your Phone Media, one of Australia’s leading hospitality-focused social media agencies.

What started as a passion for food content and a failed e-commerce attempt turned into a powerhouse agency serving 100+ concurrent hospitality clients with a 27-person remote team. Rita shares how a single opportunity to manage social media became the foundation for something much bigger.

We dive into how she used EDM email sequences to win early clients, why she delegated sooner than most founders would, and how systems became the backbone of her scale. From ClickUp and Zapier to Make.com, PandaDoc, Xero and AI automation, Rita explains how operational efficiency fuels creative growth.

The conversation explores trend-spotting across TikTok and Instagram, building credibility through mentorship groups and awards, filtering out bad-fit clients, and why restaurant advertising is more about branding and top-of-mind recall than immediate ROI.

We also unpack leadership, routines, therapy, long-term vision, her goal of building an eight-figure business, and the tech startup she is building alongside the agency.
