We’ve said it before and we’re saying it again—working in digital marketing isn’t easy.
A day—scratch that—an hour doesn’t go by without a new release, feature, algorithm change that affect your strategies and campaigns. Keeping up is hard and remaining a relevant expert in this field is a close to an impossible challenge.
A while back we decided to help with a piece featuring the top social media influencers to follow. Now we’re thinking social feeds and blogs aren’t always enough to stay up to date.

I’ll make it easier for you to find and jump directly to the podcasts you’re most interested in
