Emotional marketing is hard to get right, especially on Instagram.  When I think about Instagram marketing and getting it right, who else could I ask but the famous Jenn Herman?! After speaking to Katie Clift, in episode 7, about PR and Marketing in a digital world, I thought Jenn would be a perfect guest to drill down into the topic of emotional marketing, specifically Instagram. In this episode, Jenn and I cover a ton of topics and get a bit sidetracked when we learn about the official 'death' of Google Plus.  Honestly, the entire episode I was a bit 'star struck' since Jenn has been one of my go-to gals for everything Instagram.
