Welcome to a new episode of Business Lunch! In this episode, Roland Frasier and Ryan Deiss dive deep into the intricacies of search marketing versus paid media, exploring how marketing strategies have evolved with technological advancements. They discuss the unpredictability of Google updates, the shift towards social platforms by younger demographics, and the importance of adopting a multi-channel approach in today's digital landscape. Tune in as they share insights on the most effective channels for reaching an audience and why owned media might be more crucial than ever.

Highlights:

"If you’re starting from scratch with marketing, it’s not search marketing I’d double down on." 

"The new model for organic reach should include connection, authenticity, and a surround sound strategy across multiple platforms."

"People are looking for authenticity and consistency in the personalities they follow, not just content."
