Melinda Byerley talks with Jason Barnard about marketing strategies (that work).

Melinda Byerley has 20 years of experience in marketing, having worked with multi-billion dollar companies like eBay and PayPal. She has seen trends come and go, and how the industry changes and adapts — There are timeless principles in marketing that always work… the four P's in the Marketing Mix should always be a key component in your strategy. Reminder to self : Product, Price, Placement, Promotion.

Melinda explains what motivates people to make a decision, how certain types of content cause strong reactions, and how it all ties into human psychology.

We also discuss how we should adapt our content strategy in the age of social media and how crucial it is to choose the right platforms.
