Both of these factors make Youtube an indispensable weapon in the hands of a […]

Octoly Shifts Paradigm of Influencer Marketing with 1-Click Schmoozing

On Thursday, Oct. 20, I’m speaking about “Schmooze Optimization” at the third annual VidSummit in Los Angeles. If you’ve never heard of the concept of optimized schmoozing, it’s something that I talked about four years ago at SES San Francisco 2012.

Why did Taylor vs Treadmill become a Viral Video Hit?

Most marketers would look at “TAYLOR vs. TREADMILL,” which was published to the Beats 1 Radio channel on YouTube back on April 1, 2016, and ask, “Was this just an April Fools’ Day joke or hoax?” All the video’s description says, “Distractingly good.
