Marketing is everywhere! Here are some interesting facts about the first time a marketing action was ever done:

The First-Ever Email Spam

The first spam email was sent in 1978 over the ARPANET (a precursor to the internet). It was an advertisement for a new computer model sent to 600 recipients, resulting in the birth of email marketing and the term "spam."

The First Television Commercial:

The first television commercial aired on July 1, 1941, during a baseball game between the Brooklyn Dodgers and the Philadelphia Phillies. The ad was for Bulova watches and lasted only 10 seconds.

Six Degrees, launched in 1997, is considered the first recognizable social media platform. Users could create profiles and connect with others, laying the groundwork for the social media revolution.
