No, I didn’t get a date with Lance - I can’t even meet the guy. I really wanted to interview him about his great marketing idea. He is the director of marketing at Logoworks.
The web site is still there. I haven’t seen the billboard for a long time. As far as I know he’s […]

I was teaching a class to some USVC students, (now Utah State University) with Paul Wilson this evening. I demonstrated what it looks like to make a blog post and made a sample post. Then I deleted it. I made the post at about 9:30pm. At 10:20pm I got a Google alert about the post. […]

I went to the first Politic2.0 event with Congressman Chris Cannon. It was held this Spring. They now have a blog, which so far just features a press release.

I’ve been watching the A&E Biography interview of J.K. Rowling. I guess I’m most interested in the writer and her journey. She is so straight and charming explaining how things along the way have been both wonderful and terrifying at different times.
When speaking of living poor as a single mom:
People ask, “How did you do […]

There were about 20 of us this evening. Most of the time we’re silently typing by ourselves but when we get together we are a loud bunch. You pretty much have to yell to hear each other. We’re changing seats to get to talk to different people. I met Mrs. Phil 801, Adria (what’s your […]

I saw this ad on the bottom of my post.
Your Momma Blogs
And we pay her to. You can get paid to blog and make money too.

I just added Randall Bateman’s blog to my list of Utah bloggers. This gives me a chance to look at blogs I wouldn’t otherwise know. They are on all sorts of subjects. Utah bloggers or anyone in town can join our monthly Utah bloggers dinner (it’s tonight at 6:30pm at Goodwood BBQ in Draper at […]

I just LOVE research like this.
MarketingSherpa interviewed an office supply store and learned some things that apply to anyone who has an online or ecommerce web site.
The first principle is that they tested different elements of their site. Different industries and sites will get different results but there are some themes that apply across […]

Here’s a tip for you - if you want to rank in search engines you’ll need backlinks from sites in your niche that rank well. One way to do this, which I found out more by accident than anything, is to praise other businesses. I’ve noticed I’m getting traffic from PRWeb (hey guys my last […]
