  • Sharing information is a social tool: Let’s give them something to talk about

    When your audience shares the content you provide, they are seeking social status.

  • Unlearning what we think we know about social media

    In marketing, we have to be careful not to generalize from our own preferences, especially if we're trying to grow a small business. Our social marketing should be what our customers like, not what we like.  The best way to improve our marketing is to keep an eye on leading companies and try to learn…

    How to market systematically
  • Finally starting to achieve some serenity about all these works in progress. Everything moves forward. #li

  • Productive day, but not in the ways I expected. Am really missing team members now.

    I made progress busting down many barriers today, but also had many disappointments. I'm giving up on Tumblr. I've discovered I need to develop the next QViews newsletter before I update the web site. Every rewrite on my bio is sounding better. I just need to get all the threads laced together.

  • Using attention like real estate

    One of the ways to capture attention is to be scattered around in many places, buying your attention small and wide-spread. It's a pain in the neck to have accounts over many networks, but if you use each one strategically, you can dramatically improve your visibility.

  • Misguided efficiency in the making of offers to your customers.

    When people become achievers they develop a fascination with efficiency. We all depend on achievers to get things done. Freshly minted achievers see efficiency as the solution to the world's problems. But speaking as a reformed achiever, we eventually realize that efficiency has limited benefits. Shall we say that achievement doesn't scale? Nah, we're wallowing…

  • Revisiting the “Passport to Loyalty” concept this week in light of what I figured out last week #li

    Last week I found new insight into the way loyalty operates in our minds. The 'passport to loyalty' application is an experiment in consumer-led loyalty. We actually start with a handheld printed guide, and then leverage what we've learned onto a information system.
