Print Marketing Isn't Dead. Your Strategy Is. — Richard Dedor Why does direct mail still work? Because you have to touch it. You see it. And then you have to decide to toss it out.

Just saw a marketer in financial services state that "they are not a believer in mail."

You don't have to believe. Results are results and facts are facts.

I’ve had so much fun playing with #ai the past month. And no, not read and write email bs. I still do that myself.

Dems need a unified “promise to America” and get it done.

One of my favorite memories as a kid was going to my dad’s hometown of Sumner, Iowa, the Saturday before Easter. The town did an Easter basket hunt. It was simple but very small town joy. #happyeaster

28 days of reading. :) love keeping streaks alive!

There is an old saying in marketing: What gets measured gets managed.

The focus must be on quality goals that drive the business forward with sub-goals designed to gain insight into red flags before they are real issues.

Please help to stop this, Pete. Your kids and my kids are getting left behind.

My @linkedin.com is wild... It's clear that my network is getting older... I'm seeing more and more retirement posts!

If you are building a chatbot that relies on a Q&A managed database, you're doing Agentic support wrong.

This is perfect on any day!

May had to check this one out.

I really enjoyed Taste from Stanley (but I’m partial to Italy).

Have conversations with good humans.

People who lift you up, make you laugh, challenge you.

It will fill your cup every time.

Love this integration...

I have never been bullish on "influencer marketing". It's a fad, IMO. Just like Clubhouse, Discord, and many others ... they all have their place. But they are the minority.

A stablecoin is, in theory, like a coin. Just digital.

The US Congress is set to ban interest in stablecoins, thereby making it a bad store of value.

We need forward-thinking leaders who understand the impact and importance of digital technologies in the financial system.

They are just trying to ruin good things. Sometimes no #AI is ok.

Having worked in non-profits, private-profits, and financial institutions, I can say with 100% confidence:

In successful organizations: Marketing is the engine that enables sales.

They see the full board. They understand digital. And they are in tune with tech.

Decided to take my love of photography and share it with you.

I just launched my new website - it includes downloads, prints, and even some limited merch.

Would be grateful if you would check it out and share.
