Media as a Service (MaaS) is different from all the other corporate content that is produced. Because the media content companies create should not be self-serving — that’s called marketing. That’s when content marketing fails. Businesses need to produce Editorial Content that serves their community. MaaS Media is the best media. …see more

How Large #Companies Address Existential Threats + interview with Sumant Mandal of March Capital

Even if Comcast has the "room" to raise fees, they are shooting themselves in the foot from a brand perspective. You know who also charged fees? Blockbuster . This move can easily tip people who are thinking about cutting the cord (even if they can afford it) because they'll feel like they are getting screwed over by the cable company...again. With options like Netflix , Hulu , Amazon , and soon a streaming option from The Walt Disney Company , this seems like a surprising and tone-deaf decision. #cabletelevision #netflix #hulu #amazon #disney #streaming #ott #tonedeaf #blockbuster …see more

This 1981 news report about two San Francisco newspapers experimenting with a dial-up news service gives me goosebumps -- it's a real Pandora's box that is being pried open. "We're not in it to make money.... but we probably won't lose a lot," says David Cole at the SF Examiner. If only there was a telephone call you could make to the past. https://lnkd.in/eNTU-pU #MediaDisruption #newspapers #EveryMediaCompany …see more

Continuing media disruption means that each company needs to learn how to produce and distribute their stories. If you aren't seen — you don't exist. Learn media skills or disappear. #Simple #Reality

This South Dakota anti-meth campaign by Broadhead Co was amazingly well-executed. Like many, my first reaction was “what were they thinking?!” But that’s exactly what they were counting on. It got a very important campaign outsized results by everyone sharing it based on that reaction. I’m betting that like me, almost everyone realized it after they shared. Brilliant. Edit: I've seen some say that the money spent on it would have been better spent on actual treatment. Perhaps, but I am not commenting on that as it is not my area of expertise. I've also seen that some think it normalizes meth use because it implies everyone in the ad is on meth - no, it doesn't. And lastly, some are saying just because this raised awareness and has people talking that there are better ways to have done it. I would challenge them to come up with a campaign that would gain half as much traction. #campaigns #awareness #psa #antimeth …see more
