As a digital advertising OG, John Nardone has steered quite a few ships through economic downturns. While this one feels different, he has a lot of practical advice on leading during a hard time – whether it’s the necessity of overcommunicating or the importance of preparation for client calls on Zoom.

John also weighs in on managing business relationships as partners and clients deal with a cash crunch, and shares how Flashtalking is weathering the pullout of ad spend from certain verticals, such as sports betting, travel and tourism.
