Are you down with the “Groundswell”?

Another great book has been written. “Groundswell”, written by Forrester Research social and technology gurus Charlene Li and Josh Bernoff is a phenomenol book that will help guide any company’s social media campaign and strategy. What’s great about this book is that they’ve incorporated the POST method into it. I first heard about this method […]

The evolution of marketing stems from the brand

I had a great lunch with Ernie Mosteller, creative genius of Blattner Brunner, yesterday and everytime I talk to him, I’m motivated and inspired to talk about what’s going on with the world of technology, the Internet and marketing.
