Both Sides of the Table

JANUARY 30, 2013

I started out this year writing about how much I hate December. So I wanted to start the year off talking about putting December behind me. As an aside, I was blown away by just how many people told me they felt the exact same way about December but never wanted to say it publicly. So I’m not even talking about that.

Duct Tape Marketing

JANUARY 30, 2013

Most marketers are clear about targeting their marketing and advertising messages. And here’s the other thing, our referral sources often are equally enthusiastic about providing referrals, but when we don’t help them understand how to do this in the best possible way, we make their job that much more difficult.
