Yes, you sell cupcakes. Yes you are the greatest Italian Chef ever?!? Yes, people adore your gluten free, free range, crueltry free soda water, but... YOU ARE A MEDIA COMPANY FIRST!!

I hope you get some value here, thanks for listening, and share if you get inspired! :::::::::::::::::: A series of moments with me, Chef Tony Marciante.

Great interview with Chandler where we talk Social Media, YouTube, advertising metrics and more.
