Consumers Look Through COVID-19 Lens to Form an Opinion of Your Brand

May 14, 2020 by Ted Leave a Comment

COVID-19 consumer Brand Sentiment survey header

The race is on as marketers conduct myriad surveys to try and understand how the forced self-isolation resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic is affecting the consumer psyche now.

Whoa! An Elephant CAN Tap Dance

August 23, 2013 by Ted Leave a Comment

Social Media GraphicSocial media has revolutionized marketing communications in many ways. But still, some haven’t figured out how to make it work.
