WVU Marketing Communications Today

Everyone has a story.  You just need to know where to look to find a good one. Today the news viewer is inundated with click-bait, push alerts, infographics, and snappy headlines. The challenge for journalists today is to engage viewers to watch, read, or listen to a story where they can spend more than 30-seconds digesting the information. In this podcast, we will hear how data gathering is used specifically with WBNS 10TV’s CrimeTracker 10 franchise. Our guest is morning news anchor, Angela An and our host is Cyndi Greenglass.

The graveyard is littered with companies who have died when they were abandoned by their customers. This is what happens when you don’t listen to them, and you lose touch with what matters.

Emphasizing the importance of being a brand "leader" instead of a "manager," Dan Hill, CEO of Hill impact, offers valuable tips to modern branding strategies using data-driven insights without losing sight of organizational value.

INTEGRATE has  hundreds of current and emerging thought leaders attending each year to share the latest trends and best practices shaping the IMC world.

We have all heard about how you can make your life more balanced when you declutter your closets and your life. But what about your data? Can you really make yourself better understood when you turn your data into a three-act narrative? Today we will hear from Neelesh Varde who will help us unlock the secrets of how to unlock the visually appealing stories in your complex data.
