Ditch the Pitch

Josh Sternberg, AdWeek’s tech editor, joins ADLANDIA for a spring break special (where Alexa searches for a signal while calling in from the desert of Arizona) to talk about the changing relationship between trade media &amp; the ad industry's practitioners. Josh hits on why and how marketers should ditch the standard PR pitch to create a more meaningful relationship with trade desks to advance the industry forward. He shares his thoughts on why ideas have can become mediocre by necessity and the dangers of short-termism, while the group jams on how marketers have the opportunity to go beyond messaging to create product with impact and meaning for consumers.
