[Video] The Common-Sense Approach to the Blend of Marketing with Travis Wright and Chris J Snook

The digital age can be a very volatile world to live in. To survive and excel as an organization, there is a need to understand the culture and the DNA that is developing around it. Active human connection must be established with all individuals including employees, customers, and the media as a whole in order to stay relevant and sustainable as a business entity. The key is to get back to the basics of empathy, ethics, emotional intelligence, respect for individuality, and critical thinking in a “digital sense.”

Travis Wright is a marketing technologist and co-founder of CCP Digital, an ad agency based in Kansas City. He is also a writer for Inc. Magazine and does podcasts with VentureBeat via the VB Engage podcasts. Recently, he co-authored the book, Digital Sense with Chris J. Snook.

Chris J. Snook is a passionate, award-winning entrepreneur who does Inc. Magazine’s column called, “The Real Risk Is Doing Nothing!” He considers himself a venture catalyst as well as a brand humanizer.
