Marketing Crisis by John McNulty and Ryan Swadley explores the growing challenges businesses face in the modern digital marketing ecosystem. The book examines three major issues shaping the future of marketing: digital advertising fraud, consumer data privacy concerns, and the growing problem of low-quality AI-generated content that impacts trust. Drawing from the authors’ extensive experience in technology, marketing, and cybersecurity, the book explains how these challenges affect brand performance, consumer relationships, and marketing ROI. It also introduces the “Intellismart Platform,” a privacy-focused approach designed to help businesses create more trusted, transparent, and effective digital interactions.
