Marketing lessons from the post-election battlefield

Jan 24, 2017

It's been a tough few months. I can tell because I went on my website to finally kick off my New Year's resolution to blog every 2 weeks and saw that I hadn't updated my project availability on the homepage since November.

It's not the get, it's the give

Dec 5, 2014

I know it's the giving time of year, but I'm hoping that the latest spate of blog posts and videos I've run into about the importance of being generous in business—with your talent, your time, your capacity to delight your customers—is part of a more global trend and not just a seasonal one.
