Chat GPT Will Make Marketing Life Easier and Harder

The Trust Web Times
Groundbreaking AI ChatGPT has erupted on the collective consciousness as a savior or, depending on your perspective, as satan. Most of us understand, it is probably neither and both.

Yet, as more and more people flock to ChatGPT, many declare it remarkable thus attracting even more attention. As the appeal of ChatGPT broadens, there are a plethora of unabashed champions who extoll its virtues yet these converts are unattuned or unconcerned about where it can and will likely to go wrong – functionally and ethically.

This is why it is worthwhile to have an informed understanding of ChatGPT before we embrace the technology; the pros; the cons and the broader ethical concerns that should alarm us all. The insights I share here is based on two years of development at our company to understand the important must-know’s of ChatGPT for marketers.

3 Keys to Maximizing Content Shareability on LinkedIn

LinkedIn
Since the dawn of social media, marketers have tapped the enormous potential of shareable content to gain awareness among key audiences. On LinkedIn, highly shared content can be a total game-changer for brands and individuals alike.

What’s the secret to shareable content on LinkedIn?

There’s no gimmick, or “gaming the system.” It’s all about building content and ads around the type of response you want to elicit. It’s about appealing to the motivations that prompt people to share content.

If you advertise or plan to advertise on LinkedIn, also know that advertisers can get free reach on Sponsored Content that gets organically shared. In this way, shareable content has become a secret weapon of sorts for marketers looking to maximize their brand-building budget and boost content ROI.
Home Health Care Bidding War

mHealth Intelligence
Mergers and acquisitions activity in the home healthcare space is heating up, with numerous organizations vying for a piece of the increasingly profitable pie.

Earlier this year, CVS finalized its acquisition of Signify Health, a home healthcare company, to improve care delivery, lower costs, and boost member engagement and access. Several payers, too, have snapped up home healthcare providers in recent years, with Humana buying Kindred at Home in 2021 and SCAN Group acquiring The Residentialist Group (TRG) last year.

Just last week, M&A in the home healthcare arena intensified further, with UnitedHealth Group's Optum making an unsolicited grab for Amedisys, which had previously entered into a definitive merger agreement with Option Care Health. While Option Care Health's proposal for an all-stock transaction values Amedisys at approximately $3.6 billion, Optum has submitted an all-cash proposal totaling $3.26 billion.
