That buzz word. Omni-channel marketing or Multi-channel marketing, whatever your preference. It’s right here in Episode 033 of The Heart Of Marketing podcast with Jayme Soulati (moi) and John Gregory Olson (my illustrious co-host in crime).
Today we explore a treasure bomb by Coca-Cola’s Vitamin Water. Its Project Hustle campaign was brought to light by my kidlet, the ever-curious 13-year-old who is not a target audience of Vitamin Water but who has an i-Phone with data plan. Which means she’s ubiquitous, just like Project Hustle. (The campaign is ended, but you can still get in on the fun.)
