CEO and Founder of REV Media Marketing, Lori R Taylor, Shares Some Sage Advice From John A. Walsh

Lori R. Taylor, CEO and Founder of Rev Media Marketing, LLC host of One Click Society show on the Positive World Radio Network interviewed her friend and mentor, John A. Walsh, Executive Editor and Executive Vice President at ESPN.

Nationally recognized Direct Mail Marketer, Social Media expert and host of One Click Society on the Positive World Radio Network, Lori R. Taylor, spoke with John A. Walsh about his experience at ESPN and his wealth of knowledge as an expert in the print media.
Walsh shared stories about the early days at ESPN and how the best companies serve their customers, whether the medium is print, television or online.
"One of the reasons I got into the media is since I was in college at the University of Scranton, I always wanted to be in an industry where there was the potential for a variety of experiences. ESPN, as fate would have it, has been an unbelievable experience given what my goals were as a college student. I've been associated with the startup of our radio network, which now has over 700 stations. ESPN 2, ESPN News, ESPN Classic with my original job at ESPN was running "SportsCenter," the flagship news show. I spent two years at the turn of the century in ESPN.com to learn what was going on there. I've been associated with a number of startup ventures, segments for shows, actual shows themselves, and, as I said, networks. That's why ESPN has been very, very good for me as the old Saturday Night Live skit would go," Walsh said.

With the onslaught of new technology and the need to stay abreast, many clients contact REV asking for their help in not only social media applications and strategy but other online initiatives such as website optimization, SEO and pay per click advertising campaigns.
"The reason I have John here today is he's been a visionary his whole life. He's a humble man so he won't like that I said that, but it's true. The things I want to talk to John about today, which I think is very applicable to my listeners, is talking about why failure is important to success, and if we have time, what the new media means to the old media. ESPN is at the forefront of all the changes taking place." says Taylor.
