Please explain how marketing works in 2016

And also explain to me why all of the black internet news personalities haven't attained the level of mainstream appeal as Tomi.

With zero context about you im supposed to talk marketing? Ok. I will go with you prefer a text to a phone call so you can deal with whatever the inquiry on the other end was on YOUR time not theirs since you now have that option. That's why Netflix is creating cord cutters, I can watch whatever I want to when I want to. Not at 7pm like you used to say barring live sports etc


When you're watching a show do you actually watch the ads they spend millions on? Or look at your phone for the coli, Twitter, porn the fukk if I know to talk about what you're viewing? Meaning your main attention ain't on that tv the way it was even 7-10 years ago. Peoples eyeballs are on the phone not the tv now.

Like I said lets agree to disagree and keep it pushing since neither of us is gonna sway the other off their position.

The Grapevine, it's already being produced independently, just needs the funding.

Tweet him. He's on there right now engaging.

This nikka ain't gonna make anything happen Just signed on and he's trolling his followers.

I always say this... We have so much power here. We just choose not to use it.

..It sort of mirrors how society is.


Someone just has to do DO IT and the real ones will support...

Kick that door down.

Making noise and playing everyone like a fiddle.

No reason that the coli can't become another complex style site. We got the traffic and the members, I'm sure people would be down to create original content if they're getting paid for it.

Tagging @Brooklynzson just because.

i'm down to write articles and thinkpieces.

CTG said some real shyt.... we must BUILD our own versions of the media we consume....


Same crab shyt I'm hearing tho...

"We can't...."

"We need money..."

"We won't be accepted..."

"They wanna see a white face...."

"He should get them poppin by himself" (aka, I agree but I just wanna watch from the sidelines and see how it goes while I throw in my 2 cents)

"He should've known already...."


Y'all some crabs.... and it ain't just CTG... Coulda been any other black person who mentioned anything about building our own version OF ANYTHING and you'd hear the same shyt..


"We can't...."

"We need money..."

"We won't be accepted..."


Continue being a bytch then and step aside and stop complaining about white supremacy as if it's so hard to find a semi attractive charismatic black person who could talk that shyt in an easily digestable way... all it takes is a viral clip about a relevant topic to get the attention of the masses...



Bbbbbut but but money tho


Bbbbbut we need to be white and blonde in order to have our own form of media

Bbbbbuttt we need more people than they do


Bbbbbuutttttt




Shut y'all crab asses up then and continue being subservient to the white man if you don't believe in your people being successsful

Black people are outnumbered 7 to 1 by whites here in America if my calculations are correct. He's not thinking rationally if he's actually trying to compare demographics.

coli podcast, if done right, could've been interesting possibly.

 

[BushidoBrown]

i def see what hes getting at and it got me thinking..
but then i log on twitter and i see this

both sides got a point

EDIT - just peeped all the other tweets cooking CTG
they givin him that work

 

[OG_StankBrefs]

"I made it...whurr yall nikkas at? "

 

[Da King]

We are one of the sites he mentioned honestly. If we chill on bickering and brainstormed a bit theres ZERO reason we couldn't launch a YouTube etc and send someone outta this very forum out there to say the things we say here that need to be in front of "mainstream" eyeballs. The shyt we say here ends up on all the damn blog sites, reddits, mainstream media, social media etc if you're paying attention. We're tastemakers.

He acts like The Blaze didn't put a budget behind her

GTFOH with this bullshyt fake pep talk you pull up in every thread.

There's already tons of black media internet shows and two of them have been posted in this thread. The difference between those shows and Tomi's show on the blaze in the amount of money invested to not only make the show look good, but the amount of money that's put into marketing the show and creating that platform for her.

I have no clue why you think we're going to be able to compete with putting the money up to make our shyt be as competitive as the other news shows that's out there.

The difference is Way more white folks watch and subscribe to what Tommy saying. A black video won't be supported like hers because enough people don't care. If black folks got behind someone doing it and supported that person, they wouldn't need fancy sets and all that.
