Facebook goes native, and native ad formats make up more than 80% of impressions. Hilary Clinton and Bernie Sanders battle it out on social. Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders has more than 2.5 million Facebook fans, besting rival Hillary Clinton's 2.2 million.

The Coolest New Way to Spend $5 Snapchat is introducing yet another revenue stream today in the form of on-demand geo-filters. As it stands now, Snapchat already has two types of geofilters. Community Geofilters can not include logos or marketing and can be submitted for free. For example, where I live in Brooklyn, there are options for Williamsburg, Bushwick, and Brooklyn. The other type of geofilter is a Sponsored Geofilter, where big brands can cover a large area with marketing-based filters. With on-demand geofilters, anyone with a bit of design savvy can pay Snapchat to create and distribute their own custom geofilters in a specific area for an allotted time. The minimum size for these geofilters is 5,000 square feet (enough to cover an office building) and the minimum amount of time the geofilter can exist is 30 minutes. On the other side of the spectrum, users can spread their on-demand geofilters as far as 5,000,000 square feet. The turnaround time for review is about a day, and pricing starts at $5. Andiamo!

Ten Business Lessons from Mad Men's Don Draper 1. Break the mold “If you don’t like what is being said, then change the conversation.” – Don Draper 2. Play on emotion “Advertising is based on one thing – happiness.” – Don Draper 3. Focus on customer retention, more than lead generation “What’s happiness? It’s a moment before you need more happiness.” – Don Draper 4. Fail fast and move on “I have a life and it only goes in one direction – forward.” – Don Draper 5. Not everything is as it seems “The reason you haven’t felt it is because it doesn’t exist. What you call ‘love’ was invented by guys like me – to sell Nylons.” – Don Draper 6. Don’t twist the truth “It wasn’t a lie, it was ineptitude with insufficient cover.” – Don Draper 7. Bring a constant stream of ideas “I’m sure you do (have ideas). Sterling Cooper has more failed artists and intellectuals than the Third Reich.” - Don Draper 8. Roll with the constant pace of digital change “Change is neither good nor bad. It simply is.” – Don Draper 9. Be brave – fail often “I’m glad this is an environment where you feel free to fail.” – Don Draper 10. Look at it another way “Everyone else’s tobacco is poisonous. Lucky Strike’s is toasted.” Andiamo!

When You've Got Evergreen Content, Meet Edgar Laura Roeder joins the podcast to talk about how she started the scheduling tool, Meet Edgar, and what kinds of content are the most engaging. Laura's tips: Use great images Don't be afraid to talk about it Link back to your content on your website Connect with Laura: Twitter Andiamo! About Meet Edgar Signup to MeetEdgar here Add updates to your library When you save an update to Edgar, tell him what social networks you want to post it on. You’ll also save each one in a certain category, like "Quotes," "Blog links," or "Haiku poetry about John Stamos." (Hey, you do you.) Every time you save an update, Edgar adds it to your online library. Create a posting schedule Tell Edgar what types of updates to share at which times. Want him to tweet something from the "Blog links" category every Tuesday at 10 am? Done. Want him to post a Facebook update from your "Hilarious memes" category every Friday night at 6? Challenge accepted! Fill out your schedule, and he’ll take it from there. Edgar goes to work! Edgar uses the updates saved in your library to create a queue. After he posts an update, he’ll put it back in the library at the bottom of the pile, so he can post it again later when he runs out of new ones. The result? A never-ending update queue that fills and refills itself automatically - and you never have to worry about an update going to waste. Thanks, Edgar!

How to Save Yourself $5 Million and Changes to Facebook's Algorithm In a blog post published on Monday, Facebook software engineers Cheng Zhang and Si Chen explained that the company's traditional ways of determining what shows up in feeds—likes, clicks, comments, shares—don't always give a full picture of what users want. And the changes could weed out publishers that rely on clickbait for traffic. With Super Bowl ads tapping the $5 million mark, there are some brands and agencies that are finding some creative and economical ways to get in on the action—whether via social media, a regional ad buy, or a pre- or post-game ad. Not only are they cheaper, but they also can be every bit as clever as a big-budget effort and generate even more buzz. Andiamo!

Walk and Talk: Why use YouTube and Creating Content Sunday's are made for brunch, hanging out, and relaxing with the family. While I'm in Florida, I'm doing a lot of the first two, so I decided to create a "walk and talk" episode that allows me to bring to you my candid thoughts on whatever topic pops into my head. YouTube and content creation are two things that have been on my mind lately, and, if you can deal with listening to my somewhat scattered thoughts, you'll enjoy this quick listen. Remember, the less you put in between you and the content, the better you become. Andiamo!

Is a "High Bounce Rate" Bad, and 10 reasons to be on Snapchat When we ask our clients if they know how their digital marketing efforts are performing, they often quote a Bounce Rate percentage or some other standard Google Analytics site metrics such as “pages per session” or “time on site” and so on, with the assumption that a bounce rate above some percentage is bad.

Happy Birthday Snapchat Discover, Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and the Super Bowl In this episode, Vincenzo jumps into what Snapchat Discover has meant to 23 content publishers. Over the past year, publishers have made it clear that their Snapchat channels have moved from experiments to core offerings. Cosmopolitan’s Snapchat Discover channel generated, on average, 19 million views per month, Poynter reports. Cosmopolitan.com generates 20 million unique visitors per month, according to its website. BuzzFeed CEO Jonah Peretti has said views from Snapchat make up 21 percent of his company’s total traffic. With the 2016 Election creeping up, who is making the most of their ads? Donald Trump's support among blue collar voters doubles when Ted Cruz attacks him in ads, but those same attacks boost Cruz's support among middle-class men. And while Trump's ads don't help him much, they do drive voters away from Cruz. Those are some of the findings in a study by insights platform Qualtrics, which recruited more than 1,200 people to try and determine whether ads from the two leading GOP candidates are working, with the Iowa caucuses just days away. Finally, with the Super Bowl just a couple short weeks away, we dive into which companies have purchased ad spots and which creatives they'll be focusing on. Andiamo!

This episode, Antonio visits the Photo Plus Expo in NYC and gives a small report from the field. The PPE is one of the largest photography trade shows in the US and has always taken place in NYC in late October. Many photography-related companies attend to show off new camera gear and accessories and so much more. It's a great event to attend to take seminars, meet other photographers, play with new stuff and just recharge your photographic juices. Antonio traveled the show floor and found some neat gadgets to share from companies you probably haven't heard of. In his field report (his first for this podcast), he interviews the folks at Beastgrip, iBlazr and MIOPS. Beastgrip makes a cage/grip for your smartphone, allowing you to attach a myriad of accessories which increases the photographic functionality of your smartphone. iBlazr makes a small, nifty Bluetooth-enabled flash also for your smartphone, or DSLR. MIOPS created a remote trigger for your camera that can be activated by lightning, sound, or even a laser beam.
