The dawn of meme culture has had a significant impact on the advertising industry. Firms have resorted to a new form of marketing known as Meme Marketing. It has been realised that, “Meme is the smallest cultural unit” capable of reaching millions in just a second.

As simple as the tactic may sound, it is also important to understand that the user will not spend more than a second on the meme so the entire information has to be conveyed to him/her via that square or rectangular post. This is where all the creativity is put to test. Over the podcast the duo discusses what goes into creating the one true marketing meme and how “analogy” plays an important role in this entire marketing trend.

Full of insights and detailed discussion the podcast gets interesting with each passing minute and it is a must listen for everyone (not only the memers).
