Welcome back the The Business News Headlines. One of the things you may not know is this broadcast/podcast was born some 14 years ago by our company Insight Advertising, Marketing & Communications. The name that we adopted more than 20 years ago tells you what we do. So, the first story we've got today comes from years of experience even if the company we're calling out...is huge. We couldn't help it and hope you've had a wonderful Purim. Also, remember that you can hook up with us all day on Twitter @IOB_NewsHour and on Instagram. Here's what we've got for you today:
They doubled down on their branding problem;
What a bipartisan bill in the U.S. Senate?
One social media platform loses the other wins?
The Dow cratered today and why;
Some retail chains are seeing a chain in consumer spending;
So...they are expanding options and stores;
An in depth story about...Hot Dogs!
The Wall Street Report;
Homebuyers and Spring and Interest Rates.
Thanks for listening!

Three Marketing Tips for Business

Some of you know that the engine that powers the Business News Hour is our advertising/marketing agency. Over the years I've had hundreds of companies and business owners as how they might get better at "getting noticed". Some have taken my advice others...not so much. Recently I was in Arizona at an international meeting and a man who owns a company in Alberta, Canada told me he thought the advice I offered years ago was "screwy" but figured he might try the formula anyway. He said that it's had an amazing impact on his business. That conversation prompted me to share this short piece that originally aired on News/Talk 1540 KXEL and now...you get it. Enjoy and let me know your thoughts.
