TL;DR — Marketing Brew reports brands like Skittles and Ramp are designing campaigns specifically to be clipped — paid CPM clippers cut short segments out of livestreams and panels and distribute them across socials right after a campaign goes live.

Tactical implication: for any livestream, podcast, or panel this quarter, plan multi-camera coverage and a CPM-paid clipper pipeline before production — not after.
