I’m “working” remotely this week on a ski getaway. When I’m home, I have no trouble coming up with ideas for my emails. When I’m out of my element, my mind goes blank. I guess it’s good that I can turn off my brain when I’m away, but I enjoy writing my almost-daily emails. This week Ellen and I More…
What was your favorite Super Bowl ad? To be honest, I was at a Super Bowl party, and I missed most of the ads because most people had zero interest in the game or the ads. Every year, companies spend millions to run an ad during the Super Bowl. Over 100 million people “watch” the Super Bowl, so More…

Barnum is perhaps best known today for having said, “There’s a sucker born every minute” but Barnum never said such a thing. He believed that there was a More…
Did you see Google’s big announcement? Bard is Google’s AI tool which will compete with ChatGPT so of course, I wanted to see how it stacks up.

Back to the crystal ball… Yesterday, I teased you about my crystal ball that’s showing me the phrases and keywords you are responding to. Not the phrases More…

A Facebook memory popped up yesterday that I have to share with you. This guy said he does Amazon SEO. I wanted to learn more since Ultimate Guide to LinkedIn for Business Third Edition was about to be released. Here’s our unedited conversation (sorry for the offensive content). Him: I can tell that being 36 years old…I have the More…
Here’s a fun valuation exercise to start your day. In 2002, I was on a family ski trip and decided to learn how to snowboard. After a few falls, I started to get the hang of it. It was time to go to the top of the mountain at Squaw Valley (now Palisades Tahoe). As I started down the More…
Ready for some useless trivia? Today is National Backwards Day. Backwards Day was created by two farmers, Sarah Nicole Miller and Megan Emily Scott in 1961.
