SPORTS PUBLICITY, MARKETING & BRAND BUILDING IN A NEW AGE: WITH JOE FAVORITO
We recently wrote about some of the opportunities that will arise out of this challenging time, from new lines of sales to reimagined jobs, but it was a piece on ESPN.com, along with several other social posts to remind us of things we have had a chance to revisit, to (figuratively) embrace, and to help …
