Once upon a time, in a mall... - 3 Feb 2014

It's happened to all of us...we've been in a shopping mall and been stopped or approached by someone trying to sell us the latest this, that or the other. And Tiffany Markman is sick of it and reckons it's time we stopped being suckers.

We're planning to complete our Biz Trends 2014 coverage this week, so leading off this week are Gordon Geldenhuys who reckons this will be the year of the social customer and Mike Taberner who says the mega-trend this year will be the cash-strapped consumer - and that will present challenges for marketers and advertisers.

And finally, after much speculation, it appears to be confirmed that the SABC CEO has resigned.
