LEVEL UP CONTENT PLAY is a series that looks at principles to improve Digital and Content Marketing Strategy.
~ Every Move Is Strategic ~
NEW EPISODE EVERY TUESDAY!

I am a Gen-X narrative marketer helping “traditional marketing” practitioners MAKE SENSE of the digital marketing maze. I fully understand the frustration and confusion that many Gen X marketers are facing when it comes to digital and content marketing. There are simply too many platforms to master and changes are happening too frequently!

Yet having had the benefit of helming both marketing and content roles in Singapore’s national broadcaster, I’ve come to appreciate that when we look at the new media from the traditional marketing principles, we will realise that principles remain intact even though the tools have changed.

Subscribe and join me to uncover more fundamental principles that will save you from making costly mistakes.
