Be Authentic
Seth Godin says that, "Some marketers focus so hard on the facts of their offering that they forget to tell a story at all." That is no doubt true. In the mind of a consumer facts have little value if they cannot be applied to self. You can tell me all the facts in the world about the effectiveness of a bulletproof vest, but that knowledge will mean a lot more to me if you start off with, "Don't look now, but someone's about to shoot you in the chest." And there is my main point: The stories we tell can sell a product, but (as Seth also points out) they can't help a client unless our stories are authentic. I might buy the vest, but once I realize you were lying to me, I'm going to cram it down your throat. Our stories can't be lies ... but they don't have to be true.
2010+
With the year still smelling like baby powder, one might imagine that it would be a little more easy-going. This has not proven to be the case for me thus far. Really when you think about it, there has only been one week of 2011, but honestly I feel like I should be buying a Valentines present already. With all the hustle and bustle of last week's events I forgot to get a post ready for this week. (It's shameful; I know.) But, here I am plugging away at getting new content on the site because, as previously mentioned, I am committed to you ... and my SEO. I thought it might be nice to take a look back over the past year, and while we're at I'll tell you what all happened last week too.
