A Surprise Attack Interview with Greg

I’ve never been able to get Greg to do a video interview with me. So, what does any good friend do in that case? Ambush him with a surprise video, of course!

I wanted to talk to him about the Google Panda Update. It’s something we have spent a lot of time thinking about here at SageRock. Greg, in particular, has a ton of experience analyzing how the Google Panda Update has effected sites.

So, sit back and enjoy all the discomfort and love as I accost Greg on what he knows about the Google Panda Update in this video:

Digital Akron now in person & online

I have two quick points I want to make here:

1. I’ve been working on my ability to do events simultaneously in person and online. I did a full day class that way yesterday. It worked great!

So we are going to run this week’s Digital Akron event the same way. The event is totally free and always geared around a particular topic. You can learn more here: http://digitalakron.eventbrite.com

2. It’s possible that I’ve never been busier at SageRock than I am right now. It is so tempting to put off writing this blog. But I attribute all my busy-ness to this blog. 3 posts a week. There is nothing more important to growing my business than making sure this blog gets written. This post comes to you from my phone in bed (in the dark) last night.

I tell you this for a couple reasons. First, I am living proof of the value of blogging. My marketing consists of three thing: Twitter, speaking and blogging. That’s it. Those are the only ways I promote my company. Second, you have time to blog. If I have time you have time.

You don’t have to write the great American novel as your blog post. No one expects you to. Just try to write something helpful.

Martin Luther King Jr. and Marketing

This might seem like a stretch to you. But the deeper I submerge myself into the continuing evolving world of marketing I like to consider much of the world through the eyes of marketing. I would say that Martin Luther King Jr. is probably my greatest American hero. We are so fortunate that he lead [...]

The Critical Importance of Beauty In Your Web Marketing

I’m sitting in my hotel room at Circus Circus on the second to last day of the Consumer Electronics Show. I’m unbelievably turned on. Horny might be a little strong. But I’m on fire. I am in love with the world, this place, humanity. I’m just in love. In love with the whole fucking world. [...]
