It’s about “share of mind”
not “share of voice”

The audience is not
brought to you or given to
you; it's something that
you fight for. You can
forget that, especially if
you've had some success.
Getting an audience is
HARD. Sustaining an
audience is HARD. It
demands a consistency of
thought, of purpose, and
of action over a long
period of time.
-- Bruce Springsteen

Editor's Notes The first era in marketing was the mass media revolution. The advent of national advertising alound marketers to build national brands. Companies like Marlboro, Tide and Budweiser puit hundreds of brands out of business because they were cable to capitalize on this platform and create competitive advantage. The second era in marketing is the channel revolution begangan in the 90’s. In some ways marketers starteted this era but ultimately did not hold on to the ownership of it..but it was clearly a marketing era and brands like Netflix put a wooping on Blockbuster, experida put hundreds of small travel agencies out of business and amazon crushed brands like borders..
