This Old Marketing

In this venerable episode number 86, Joe and Robert discuss why CNN is seeing backlash for their native advertising launch.  After that, the boys explain why print is really the future of digital (stop laughing). In addition, the New York Times sees amazing results leveraging Facebook for their subscription funnel, and Manifest is the latest content marketing agency merger/launch.  Rants and raves include the box office and customer service.  This week's #ThisOldMarketing example: Disney and merchandising.
