You have been asked to work with Guiseppe on a project that involves building a marketing strategy for a boutique real estate agency in Malibu. Guiseppe is older and more experienced but has the same job title as you. You have strong feelings about the importance of digital marketing, and in your short career, you've seen very clearly that digital marking is the most important for this market. However, Guiseppe doesn't have much experience with digital, and he's pushing for a more conventional magazine and print-based advertising strategy.
