Twitter Announces Automated, Always-on Amplification Engine ‘Promotion Mode’. Twitter has announced a new always-on service that automatically promotes tweets called Promotion Mode. The social platform launched the feature, priced at $99 a month for those who want to have an automated, advertising solution for their brands and products. According to Twitter, smaller brands, with up to 2,000 followers will see the most value. The service automatically selects tweets to be promoted, which will become ‘promoted’ tweets. For these (probably) smaller brands, all they have to do is post as they normally do to and this new feature boosts the message to their target audience. When the feature is enabled, the first ten Tweets that pass their quality filter will be placed into a campaign that targets that audience. Retweets, quote tweets and replies are not included in this feature. The ‘promote mode’ will also promote the account running the campaign as a user to follow users in its target audience. Twitter said that not every tweet that is added to your Promoted Tweet campaign will serve an impression, and how well that tweet is promoted depends on its individual performance. They’ve anticipated that through this feature, accounts can reach an average 30,000 more people and add around 30 followers a month. Users utilizing ‘promote mode’ can access data for their tweets, reach, and profile visits through a specialized dashboard. Twitter said it plans to announce a tier based system for accounts with larger followings at a higher price “in the future.”
Remember, social media marketing isn’t always the tech. It’s the people.
Today, traditional TV still accounts for the lion’s share of video viewing, but online and mobile are where the growth is. When managed together, TV/digital/mobile hold the potential to drive real impact for advertisers—enabling them to maximize the customers they reach and/or reinforce key messaging across screens. After all, ‘It’s all about screens’.

NBC Fires Matt Lauer
NBC Universal said it fired morning-show veteran Matt Lauer, citing “inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace” and setting up potential chaos at its venerable—and very lucrative—’Today’ franchise. In a memo to staffers, NBC News Chairman Andrew Lack said executives on Monday night “received a detailed complaint from a colleague about inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace by Matt Lauer. It represented, after serious review, a clear violation of our company’s standards. As a result, we’ve decided to terminate his employment. While it is the first complaint about his behavior in the over twenty years he’s been at NBC News, we were also presented with reason to believe this may not have been an isolated incident.” Lauer has been a fixture on “Today” for more than two decades, and has served as a connection to morning viewers through two generations of viewers. He first joined as a news reader in 1994 before becoming the show’s co-anchor in 1998. He has worked alongside morning-TV fixtures including Katie Couric, Meredith Vieira, Ann Curry, and most recently, Savannah Guthrie. But he is the latest prominent figure to fall as the nation places more emphasis on the injustice of acts of sexual harassment by prominent public figures, including movie mogul Harvey Weinstein and former Fox News Channel anchor Bill O’Reilly. NBC had in 2016 quietly negotiated a new deal with Lauer, said to be valued at around $20 million, that would have kept him on the air through 2018. “Today” viewers who tuned in to the show Wednesday morning were greeted by a somber Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb. “As I’m sure you can imagine, we are devastated and we are still processing all of this,” Guthrie told viewers. “I will tell you right now we do not know more than what I just shared with you, but we will be covering this story as reporters, as journalists. I’m sure we will be learning more details in the hours and days to come. And we promise we will share that with you.” She said she was “heartbroken for Matt. He is my dear, dear colleague.” But both she and Kotb made clear they were concerned about a potential victim. Guthrie said she was also upset for the woman who had accused Lauer, and said the ability of women to feel comfortable when making allegations of abuse was “long overdue.” Kotb expressed surprise about the alleged behavior. “It’s hard to reconcile the man who walks in every day” with the behavior that had been described, she said.
CBS Ends ‘Wisdom Of The Crowd’ after 13 episodes.
CBS Ends ‘Wisdom Of The Crowd’ at the end of its 13 week initial order.
When a show is not given an extension in its initial order, that indicates that the network is not going to renew it for another season. As for ‘Wisdom Of The Crowd’, it has a number of fatal flaws. Number One: it is the lowest of all CBS new dramas. Number Two: it shouldn’t be the lowest rated considering the premiere time slot it was given behind powerful ’60 Minutes’. Number Three: it has a flawed premise…in that the crowd can solve the crime. No it can’t. Number Four: there is no lovable cast member. Number Five: no network is going to risk bad publicity on an underperforming program by giving it more time to die.
Though it is not yet official, the move means the series is essentially cancelled at the network. “Wisdom of the Crowd” has failed to make a substantial impact in its Sunday timeslot, with the show currently averaging a 1.0 rating in adults 18-49 and 7.4 million viewers per episode, making it the lowest-rated freshman drama on CBS. It is the second series to be chopped this season by The Tiffany Network.
Media Research
Millennials Aren’t Killing Business, They’re Innovating It.
Roughly defined as people born between 1980 and 2000 (Pew Research Center, 2017) who are technologically superior with an acute affinity for avocados, Millennials are expected to hold a collective annual buying power of $31 (£24) trillion by 2020 (UBS Group, 2017). So what does this mean for marketers? The answer is quite simple–adapt or die.
In an article written by Irisini Davis, Marin Software (112717), Millennials don’t care about your brand; they care about what it represents. From Retail to Travel, the off-online path-to-purchase amongst this group is synonymous with relevancy, efficiency, consciousness and value for money. And whilst the youngest Millennials may be having a night cap to the end of their university careers, many others–such as Britain’s youngest MP Mhairi Black (22), leader of the Austrian People’s Party Sebastian Kurz (31), the world’s youngest female leader and Prime Minister of New Zealand Jacinda Ardern (37) and CEO of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg (33)–are progressively validating the strength of their power and influence in all aspects of our daily lives. Marketers who succeed will proactively assess the impact Millennials may have on their market from a macro-economical perspective and also as social influencers which could effect bottom line campaign results. Case and point, the infamous #GrabYourWallet and #DeleteUber Millennial driven owned and earned social campaigns. The key takaway – Reevaluate your current strategy, see where you can discover new opportunities, and plan ahead.
Learn to cope with a ‘mobile-only’, rather than a ‘mobile-first’ mentality Mobile-first. In the United Kingdom 77% of young consumers would opt to leave their wallet at home instead of their mobile, while 70% can imagine a future where 100% of purchases are done digitally (LivePerson, 2017). To sparsely survive, smart marketers’ will reactively galvanize and adjust their digital strategies. However, this alone will not guarantee long-term success as the shift to a mobile-only world will be swift and implacable. More than ever, this will leave advertisers fumbling to tackle accurate measurement of campaign outcomes using a multi-touch mobile attribution model. Although most social clicks happen on mobile and conversions on desktop, Millennials, and indeed most consumers, are known to consume media across multiple devices at any given time. This is another largely untapped source of insights, one that can make the difference between smart budget allocations and wasted marketing spend.
Take a ‘future is now’ approach to marketing. According to investment bank UBS, Millennials are prone to start businesses eight years earlier than their parents and target gross profit margins more than 30 percentage points higher. Understanding young consumers’ ever-evolving attitudes, habits, interests and preferences will likely forever be essential feats to inform future marketing strategy and tactical campaigns which encompass the proclivity to deeply engage them as consumers. Brands will need to offer products and services in such a way that mirrors how young consumers live their lives – connected, socially aware and adaptable – while implementing a cross-channel-device marketing strategy.
Conclusion. There is no doubt that, increasingly, young consumers hold an incredible amount of power and influence. From the time they eat breakfast, flock through the trenches of the underground while navigating in and out of a multitude of social apps, to the time they drift off to sleep with their mobile phones securely tucked underneath their pillows at night, young people are pioneering digital transformation, adoption and dictating what all consumer generations should expect from brands.

Meredith Corp (Better Homes & Gardens) Acquires Time Inc (Time) in $2.8 Billion Koch-Backed Deal
Meredith Corp., a magazine publisher and broadcast company, will acquire Time Inc. in a deal totaling $2.8 billion, the company announced in a statement Sunday. The Des Moines, Iowa-based company said in the statement that the all-cash deal had been approved by both firms’ boards of directors and is expected to close in the first quarter in 2018. Meredith will pay $18.50 per share of the publicly traded Time Inc. Meredith is backed by $650 million from Koch Equity Development, the investment arm of Koch Industries. According to Meredith, KED will not have a seat on its board, and will have “no influence on Meredith’s editorial or managerial operations.” “I am proud of our accomplishments and thank the talented teams across the company for their extraordinary work, relentless commitment, and passion,” Time Inc. CEO Rich Battista said in a statement. “Together, we moved quickly and successfully to launch, grow, and advance our multi-platform offerings during unprecedented times in the media sector.” The two companies had several rounds of talks in recent years, but were never able to come to a conclusive deal. Meredith’s best-known brands are Better Homes and Gardens and Family Circle, while New York-based Time Inc. operates the storied Time magazine, in addition to Entertainment Weekly, People, and Fortune. The acquisition comes at a time wherein print media continues to struggle, with Time Inc. reporting a 9% decrease in its revenue in the first nine months of 2017 compared to the previous year.
