If someone told you that they had strategy and resources to create at-scale bespoke content that hits your specific target audience in the places they frequent the most, with the language they love to listen to and the format that would engage them the most, what would you say?

Most people would say yes until they hear the term influencer. In this episode we sit down with Nathalie Moruzzi the Global Platform & Influencer Lead at Wavemaker and (at the time of the interview) the Global Product Director at GOAT (who is now the Global Commerce Strategy Director at mindshare) to breakdown influencers to what they are, how to do go effective work with them and what the future holds as platforms evolve.

According to most plans, 18 to 45 is the golden range for pushing ads... but wait, does that mean that people over 45 don't buy? Last time I checked the average 50-year-old probably has a bit more to spend than the average 25-year-old. In today's episode, we sit down with Tik Tok to talk about Generational advertising the differences advertising to an older generation vs a younger one as well as an inspirational hear aid ad.

We brought 2022 to a close with an awesome sit-down with Maria St. Louis who has recently taken the position of Equity and Inclusion lead at Channel 4. You may have heard of Channel 4 before, they are a small indie broadcaster in the UK.  Just kidding, they are a major player in the media world and act as a point of innovation on many fronts, one of which is their approach to DEI. From having a black history month take over on their channels to doing a first of it's kind black to the front campaign, reporting on representation on television. We sat down with Maria to understand Channel 4's approach through the collective, as well as to understand Marie's experience being a black woman in the space long before what we all see today.

It was a fun and awesome conversation, with so many quotes we could probably make a clothing line!

Hope you enjoy it.
