Food Network owner Scripps is focused on video series for social platforms, 'Still as scared, hungry, nervous and angry': Grey's Vicki Maguire on climbing the ranks as an outsider, How Dennis Publishing has grown commerce revenue 60 percent in a year, Daily eNL
| Business Insider launched distributed arm Insider 18 months ago, the en vogue idea was to ride the platforms wave. Now, Insider is hedging on that strategy with a 15-person team dedicated to its owned property. Sign of the times. Another sign of the times: Food Network owner Scripps is back to focusing on digital video series. That's because platforms like Facebook and Snapchat are now wanting shows versus quick-and-dirty social videos of overhead shots showing hands manipulating food. In our latest "Starting Out," Grey co-CEO Vicki Maguire talks about making it in advertising as an outsider: a working class female. "My biggest challenge in my career was not compromising my views or personality to fit in with the status quo. I was never going to fit in as a nice bob-haired girl working on haircare. But I can talk you into buying midget gems at the sweet shop I run in the East End, and I can swear with the best of them." Commerce is the name of the game for publishers these days. Dennis Publishing has quietly built a $19 million business from selling on its properties. Did you know big banks have banded together to create a Venmo competitor? No? That's the problem they face with Zelle. The Digiday Programmatic Marketing Summit is coming up from May 31-June 2 in Scottsdale. Hear execs from Lenovo, Bayer, Zipcar and more talk about the automation of advertising. |
