Marketing Gunda Diaries: Proven Marketing Tactics for Big and Small Brands

While walking around, I met a CEO who seemed curious about what I do. He looked at my business card, read out loud: "Business and Marketing Consultant with MBA in International Business." Then, he asked me a question that really made me think. "RJ, does creativity really make a difference in performance marketing? Isn’t it more about budgets, targeting, and data?"
