SPORTS PUBLICITY, MARKETING & BRAND BUILDING IN A NEW AGE: WITH JOE FAVORITO
Every year we ask in class when are the worst days to “break” news. It used to be the default answer of weekends…or Fridays…now not so much. In a 24 7 global news cycle, the exact day and time takes much more expertise and knowing your audience. While public companies still follow the patterns of …
Spread the love I get asked all the time how I manage…well…time, and I use this quote from William Penn that i have on hand. “Time is what we want the most and use the worst.” -William Penn It’s hard, especially without routine or with so many things flashing in and out of what is …

As always you can catch all our pods by subscribing here as …
With week zero now here largely for college football, it is another sport that if I were a Mid-Major school I would be paying more attention and committing more dollars to, along with Flag Football.
