ginidietrich I have to a do a better job educating then--it seems to fall on deaf ears. And you are welcome!
ginidietrich Yes! So tired of being asked for these--useless! Thanks for a great post and a fantastic year of quality blogging, Gini.
Bless you for saying this: "Gone are the days of media impressions and advertising equivalencies."
ginidietrich That's one reason I don't blog everyday (rationalization alert!): I don't want to wear people out, so to speak. So far so good--site visits continue to grow at a reasonable pace and business is good. Have a great week!
Nice turtleneck.
I try to do on e-newsletter a month, but seem to have more luck with getting people to sign up to Feedburner--those people hear from me at least 3 times a week, every time I do a new blog post. Coincidentally, i just did a blog post about getting signed up for my e-newsletter. Go figure.
I learned a new word today!
Agreed. Wrote about something similar on my PR blog last year--if you crave the spotlight then you're in the wrong line of work. http://www.alexgpr.com/2010/03/its-not-about-you/
Good post. As I tell my clients: use the tools, don't let the tools use you. http://www.alexgpr.com/2011/04/social-media-tools/
As for the royal wedding: I'll say nothing. People get mad when I give my opinion about that one!
I see sweeping generalizations like that and just say (in my usual verbose fashion) "What-ev."
Thanks for sparing us the horrendous experience of seeing you unshowered. :-) Good post--I have to admit I have never heard the term "overservicing" though I have certainly done it with several clients. (Okay. That sounded odd. Anyway.)
Well damn. ShellyKramer I held ginidietrich in high esteem until just this moment., even tho she named her dog after that weirdo on 24.
ShellyKramer That's what she said.
ShellyKramer True dat.
You oughta know about faking it ShellyKramer ! LOL But yeah, I do like messin; around on Gini's blog, too.
Well ShellyKramer I think ginidietrich SEEMS pretty kind. I like her laugh, at any rate.
ShellyKramer Well, true. But he's pretty cool.
I think JGoldsborough would know. Or fake a good answer!
Justin's a cool guy. We're proud he's representin' KC!
Nicely said.
Nice distinctions. Client education is so important--I call it managing expectations. I take pains to explain what our strategy and tactics will do for them--though I'm not always successful at explaining it in a way that sticks. I'm a work in progress on that.
Happy St. Patty's Day!
