In this PODCAST #105 I want to do a follow up piece on the last one I did about Covid-19. Right now it’s March 23rd in 2020 Sydney Australia and all around me the air raid sirens and alarm bells are ringing, well metaphorically at least. Panic and anxiety has kicked up to an all time high. All over my Facebook feed are people making doomsday predictions pleading everyone to self isolate and hide from all human contact. It’s quite interesting to watch the mob mind emerge and how social media...

March 05, 2020 07:00 - 9 minutes - 6.64 MB

In today’s PODCAST FIB’s Trend Report 102, I want to take a look at a fairly recent phenomenon born from the recent Influencer boom. I don’t know about you, but as a life long marketer I find this whole obsession with fabulous nobodies pretty bizarre.

In today’s PODCAST FIB’s Trend Report #99 I am going to look at one of the dark sides of Instagram and Influencer culture.
