During episode 349, host David Erickson interviews Blois Olson, radio host and publisher of seven must-read newsletters about email marketing, list growth, and leveraging channels to own the inbox. Ever since he received his first computer while a paperboy, Blois Olson has lived at the entrepreneurial intersection of media, technology and communications. Today he leads Fluence Media, and serves as one of the Midwest's most sought after political analysts in his role at WCCO Radio and as publisher of Minnesota's most read tip sheets providing daily insight on politics, business, philanthropy, health care and agriculture. He began his career managing political campaigns and working in political media through the 1990’s. Blois founded his first agency at age 26 and built it to be one of the most respected at integrating technology to synchronize corporate reputation and public affairs campaigns in the country. In 2012, he founded Fluence Media in the belief that the silos of marketing and media have crashed. Fluence provides clients with high-level media and communications strategy, data visualization and insights, content creation and distribution, and marketing.
