#096 OH Sh!t... Is Marketing in trouble? | Matthew Barnes
--:--
Is marketing and creativity colliding with society? The truth...
Believe it or not, I tried for over 3 years to bring you this episode! Matthew Barnes is one of Africa's most talented creative directors. We met at a pitch - blah blah, fast forward, we became friends because of our passion for our industry (Marketing, Advertising, and Creativity).
As a passionate marketer and netnographer, I started doing research on the state of marketing and creativity, and something did not sit well with me. Something is wrong, and what is going on with our industry? This is not an episode for shallow marketers. This is a real conversation about what you need to know about what is REALLY happening in Marketing, Advertising, and Creativity.
