DTC Media - so spot on. Just listened to ppl calling podcasts their “therapy” and “brain breaks” at FC festival yesterday. def having a moment based on the content & delivery being so personal. Hope that doesn’t change (but it most likely will!). Congrats on next chapter, I loved the work we did w Digiday 2012-2015 while at PulsePoint. Hands down my most successful B2B partnership as a digital marketing marketer.
Great read Brian and a nice trip down memory lane to the early days of Digiday. Always enjoyed your incisive look at the media and digital advertising world, and looking forward to what you have coming next!
Terrific read Brian. I will miss your direction of Digiday but look forward, as do so many others, to seeing what's next. (Resurrect the Digital Hot List w/ @mikeshields?) In the meantime, I will faithfully follow your delightful musings in this space. (PS, be sure to hit Londres Market in D.F. I bought some whimsical napkin rings there 20 years ago that I'm still using to this day. I know you're probably in the market for some napkin rings. You are welcome.)
Good luck on this next chapter. One challenge for "business of media" publications is sheer demand x supply. When I started my career, there was PaidContent. Then GigaOm, TechCrunch, BusinessInsider, Digiday, etc. so I think one thing anyone has to address to succeed is how to really distinguish yourself when the business requires / pulls pubs to cover the same stories.
