Streaming Recognition Is a Marketing Problem, Not Just Content

As a journalist who still marks up media plans by hand, I keep returning to one point — If viewers can’t name the platform, the hit show fails the brand.

I am less interested in keynote poetry than in the levers a brand can actually toggle before Friday’s budget meeting.

1. Measure recognition, not only starts
2. Budget craft into launch packages
3. Treat podcasts as programming, not dumps
