Advertising is Dead has been running for almost 4 years now and has witnessed drastic changes in the world of Podcasting as well as Advertising, and a general world situation of Pandemics, trends, and Market fluctuations.
In this episode, Varun is joined by Amit & Kavita of IVM Podcasts to revise the 4 years of running this podcast, and 8 years of running the company that produces the show along with many others.
In this episode, they talk about how ads have become multi-channel, a lot more thought and clearance is required in today's commercials, and the increased use of technology to enhance quality. They discuss the pros and cons of using AI versus human intervention in creatives. They also discuss how data is key, how subscription models exist as an alt to advertising models, and how everything is an agency now.
This is the last episode of Advertising Is Dead before it goes on an indefinite break. Check out our older episodes; we'd always love to hear feedback and suggestions.
Thank you for being a part of this journey!
