• 404 Script Not Found: Cisco Live (and In-Person)

  Coming to you live...well at Cisco Live but in person! We dig into the week's biggest news from Cisco Live, from the actual notes Kat took during the sessions, to Ian's adventures. We also tackle the tough topics of what our Uber ratings are, how to pronounce "data," our thoughts on San Diego and what makes a good party at a conference. Something for everyone (especially those above a 4.9 Uber rating)! Short and sweet! If you came to listen to this episode to learn something about Cisco's solutions for small and medium businesses (outside of the Cisco Live updates) you should check them out here: https://id.cisco.com/app/ciscoid_aemcloudprodsaml_1/exk14lk1xf6SKDANc5d7/sso/saml

• 404 Script Not Found: Influencer Marketing

  We're talking everything influencer marketing this week, from the influencer(s?) themself. From internal influencers and employee advocacy to finding the right "celebrity" to support your brand, we share what we've learned. Shoutout to the Giggly Squad. Kat shares what goes into making good influencer content based on her own experiences, and we find ourselves talking AI again...is Bing actually important? Somehow along the way, we end up power ranking our old email accounts (turns out Kat had them all).
