With the continuing evolution of media consumption, it has become increasingly challenging for an advertiser to both capture and hold an audience's attention, says advertising entrepreneur Patrick Walsh.

"We live in what academics call the Age of Choice, where reaching a broad audience and funneling their attention to a business has become trickier than ever."
