Summary
As part of a continuing series on how marketing made small ideas big, this episode focuses on an unlikely suspect -- a retired sheriff's detective with a passion for history. West Virginia native David Taylor created a unique heritage project that might have remained a personal hobby, except for a two-hour radio interview one Sunday morning. Gordon and Corey explore why this story perfectly illustrates an enduring truth about marketing: great ideas still need the right amplifier, and sometimes that amplifier isn't a fancy campaign on streaming platforms or social media — it's a simple kick-start in trusted local media.
