Quick intro: I know emotions are high, but I want to spend some time discussing why the presidential election outcome occurred. Before reading any further, can I ask we do this without anyone getting upset? Challenge: impossible for some, but I’d say if you read this Substack you’re open to rational, calm discussions without throwing stones. If not, you would have left already (we explore lots of things here).

“Most people believe the media is biased. Anyone who doesn’t see this is paying scant attention to reality, and those who fight reality lose. Reality is an undefeated champion. It would be easy to blame others for our long and continuing fall in credibility (and, therefore, decline in impact), but a victim mentality will not help. Complaining is not a strategy.

Cyberattacks can wreak havoc on a company’s database, ultimately causing great harm to the company itself and those whose data it maintains.

A modern credit card feature that provides merchants with automatic updates when previous customers of these merchants get new cards is backfiring, the Wall Street Journal recently reported.

I have always been good at sticking with things in my life I commit to, but only recently got pretty good at quitting things that are unhelpful. I’ve come to realize they are basically two sides of the same coin, and your grit in commitment can also be applied to the inverse when you’re ready to stop doing something. But I had to internalize a few things first.

Most marketers know about out of home (OOH) ads (although we'll excuse the pure digital marketers who have never run anything but a search ad). But did you know this medium has changed over the years?
