weekly recap

We know the Broncos and Panthers are ready for the big game this Sunday, but are brands? Adweek sat down with creative directors from across the country and identified five key trends to look out for during Super Bowl 50. Social media will also be on the field. Remember the Super Bowl blackout a few years ago? Twitter is prepared. They recently announced they will be bringing a new timeline to over 23 countries. Why? Because consumers are very trusting with social platforms. Even when it comes to financial advice. So if you want the extra point, stop treating this audience like acquisitions and try nurturing them instead, especially when it comes to email marketing. Ready? Hike.
