Hey!
How are you?
Happy Thursday!
These are the three articles that caught my eye today (at least one is on how tech impacts the entertainment world (my specialty). The others? If the headline caught my eye and I read the article, I’ve included it in this email newsletter).
Don’t forget to sit up straight in your chair!
I love you all!

2) It’s all about the monthly fees
What do Netflix and Costco have in common? They rely on their fees (Netflix = monthly. Costco = yearly) to generate some of their profits (key lesson? Offer a compelling product. People will sign up).
And that’s technology’s impact on the entertainment field: using technology to gain an edge over everyone else (Netflix vs their competitors; I won’t bore you analyzing Netflix’s latest quarter. Why? Everyone else has done this).
3) It’s the bot
