This episode is all about the issue of social media platform profitability and how tech companies can give both users and advertisers a better experience.


I discuss advertising options that take advantage of technology such as user-friendly marketing surveys, platform-specific influencer marketplaces, and user-generated content campaigns


I also explain how the standard advertising model of "interruption marketing" is ineffective, and how ad-free experiences could be earned by users who voluntarily engage with ads on their own schedule.


I believe that many people would prefer to spend a few minutes a week engaging with ads they find interesting rather than being interrupted by ads they have no interest in.

This episode focuses on WritingBattle.com - An online creative writing "flash fiction" contest created by Max Bjork.


Writing Battle is designed to help writers learn, give them a chance to shine, and avoid the choke points that many other online competitions get caught in.


Currently there is a contest at WritingBattle.com once each quarter. Participants receive prompts, write and submit, and then judge competitors from separate genres until a final winner is chosen.


If you want to learn more and sign up for the next contest, visit the Writing Battle website today.
