New interactive platforms are changing the landscape of traditional media outlets. Savvy marketers and public relations professionals want to know how traditional media will keep up with these fast-paced changes, and in what ways the media is helping professionals stay accountable for their return on investment.
The AMA-Milwaukee Chapter is proud to present a panel of Milwaukee’s top media outlets that will help marketing and PR professionals stay ahead of the curve. The panel will weigh in on these questions and more:
-
How has traditional media been affected or not affected by the proliferation of online audiences, and in what ways are they addressing these issues?
-
How will the changing media landscape affect advertisers? How will media sources continue to demonstrate return on investment?
-
What can companies learn from the changing media landscape? What can they do to better work with the media?

-
Stacy Blasiola, Director of Interactive Marketing-Journal Broadcast Group
-
