Television has been around since the early 1940s, and millions of dollars have been spent on placing ads on the platform. Television used to be the main and most effective way to reach a wide range of people. But is this still true? Everyone has the internet in the palm of their hands. Has that eaten into the time people spend watching television? In today’s episode of the Marketing Myths Podcast, Aaron & Tobaria talk about the effectiveness of television as a form of marketing.
