  • The Mobile Makeover Of Digital Marketing

    As far as classic channels go, search and display are Internet advertising legends. They arose in the proverbial stone age of digital technology, when ad capabilities were limited to standard banner ads that screamed, “Click Here!” Simply put, innovations at the industry’s disposal today, including online video and mobile executions, were once easily dismissed as […]

  • A Sneak Peek Into Volkswagen’s Super Bowl Social Media “War Room” Plans

    This is shaping up to the most digitally-enabled and interactive of Super Bowls, with many of the advertisers — and even some non-advertisers — thinking very holistically about their Big Game marketing.
