We introduced the Candid Conversation Series which brought monthly, 40-minute webinars that featured in-depth discussions on the relevant topics directly affecting the industry today. This engaging series gave a front-row seat to the insights shared from top industry leaders on the challenges, trends, and opportunities that are shaping the future of media ad sales!
