Do you follow the trends or stick with more old-fashioned methods? Should you set up a presence in the metaverse, or should you start training a flock of carrier pigeons?   Firstly, developing a communication strategy is not about picking the “best” channel.

Although Event 360 isn’t producing an ..read more
