I certainly hope this person is really in marketing. I would agree that a lot of digital “metrics” are a scam. It’s all in the presentation of said metrics.
However, this article is comprised of poorly-sourced anecdotes and full of buzzwords and conjecture. The grammar also makes me question the validity of the storyteller.
I can’t gate-keep “marketing” but buyer beware on this one.
Edit: hey to all the downvoters - I’d love to know why, specifically, I am wrong?
Those sound like pretty convincing marketing bona-fides to me!
I’m not sure if this comment is sardonic or sarcastic or genuine in tone so I can’t respond.
Genuinely sardonic.
Toward my comment or the article?
Grue was making a joke about marketing people never saying anything meaningful and just slamming you with buzzwords and shit lol

If you ran it through MS Word or Grammarly you would see it needs some help.
