We interrupt the day before the long holiday weekend with some important digital marketing announcements!
- The move to GA4 is approaching. MarTech has a Q&A with the Director of Google Analytics on the migration from UA (Universal Analytics) to GA4. It’s a useful read to understand the thinking behind the move and the power of the new platform.
- Twitter now faces an overall 88% reduction in staff since Musk’s has been in charge. No one knows how this is going to play out. All we can do is to continue to follow the blue bird through this uncertain, cutthroat time.
- On a lighter note, national and state parks are offering free, all-terrain wheelchairs for those who need them. This makes me excited for all the possibilities this unfolds. 🍁
- How are you analyzing your brand story in a broader cultural context? Rob Engelsman and his co-founder, Alexa Beck, from Quick Study created the helpful ACES acronym and infographic to help answer this crucial question.
