[VIDEO] Marketing Land Live #11: Facebook is printing money, Twitter stock struggling & more
It was a big week for earnings, with Facebook, Twitter, Apple, Amazon and others all reporting — and it was a week that had some clear winners and losers. In the latest episode of Marketing Land Live, we talked about why Facebook continues to practically print money, why Twitter stock is headed in the other direction and what happened to Apple.
We also talked about a new Google AdWords test that expands ad copy headlines, the Getty Images complaint against Google in Europe and more. Marketing Land’s Ginny Marvin, Tim Peterson and Danny Sullivan joined me for this week’s show, which runs about 52 minutes. You can watch the replay below. Be sure to scroll below the video for this week’s Show Notes, with links to the stories we talked about.
We record new episodes of Marketing Land Live every Friday at 12:00 p.m. ET / 9:00 a.m. PT on Blab, so we hope you’ll make plans to join us live in the future.
