Welcome to Marketing Brew Weekly! This week, we’re discussing the pros and cons of trying to sell a project with a showmance. Inspired by the Wuthering Heights movie, we had to wonder if the stars’ off-screen chemistry could really sell movie tickets. Plus, what happens when reality TV and influencer couples break up: who gets the social media accounts and the brand deals?
