So, I’m finishing up Kenneth Roman’s The King of Madison Avenue while starting Accidental Branding by David Vinjamuri. The later book reminds me of my intention to get on the mailing list for the J. Peterman catalog, something every marketer and copywriter should do. So I pop over to the website and find the following [...]

On page 18-19 of Step Into The Spotlight!, I tell the story of how a client had recommended a book to me (Blink by Malcolm Gladwell), I hadn’t heard her and I ended up finding it myself and recommending it to her. Kinda happened again today.
Out of the blue, I called a blogger to thank [...]

So exciting to get unexpected lumpy mail. Today’s haul included 3 marketing books (one of the benefits of being a blogger–Thanks Todd And for dragging me to blogging…and thanks to Wiley & Entrepreneur Press).
The one I opened first (while waiting outside the donut shop for my kid finishing her shift) was David Meerman Scott’s [...]

The results of our first book giveaway of the year are in.
But first, I gotta say, I was blown away, by the unbelievable response from so many wonderful talented people.
Even more rewarding was the fact that many people used this opportunity to connect with each other and I think there are going to be [...]

Last year, here at Step Into The Spotlight!, we were fortunate to be able to give copies of several wonderful business books including Andy Nulman’s Pow! Right Between the Eyes, David Meerman Scott’s World Wide Rave, Andy Beal’s Radically Transparent and Drew McLellan’s 99.3 Random Acts of Marketing

This week, we have another exciting Step Into [...]

So I’m picking up my mail, a bunch of bills and flyers when I spot, buried in the stack, a bright red sparkly bubble envelope (I didn’t even know they existed–I’m gonna re-use it and make someone else’s day!) and already, I’m excited. What was inside was even more exciting, a hot-off-the-press copy of Celebrity [...]

Got an email this morning that said:

It’s not exactly The National Enquirer, but I wonder how Her Real Royal Highness would feel about this one. Gotta admit, it is kinda cute. And it did make me watch the video, so in a “You Just Proved Bench Advertising Works” [...]

Had fun on Voice America’s Kitchen Table Entrepreneur with host Jackie Rogers.
