Human Marketing and Professional Blogs

There’s a place and a catchy name for the type of marketing that I practice.

Components

  1. Amateur
  2. Responsible
  3. Democritized
  4. Fragmented
  5. Non-hierarchical
  6. Based on Attention
  7. Individualistic Open Source
  8. Smale scale and micro profits
  9. Value of ideas as well as commodity products.
  10. Small

Affiliate marketing has (had?) the chance, but it seems tainted, circumscribed and entirely sure of itself.

I need a name.

Fatblogging

I’ve gone from being a skinny and physically active college freshman to being an out of shape and overweight teacher, writer, consultant and online marketer. Those things are great for the mind, but not for the body.

Right now I’m somehwere in the 200-210 range and need to get down to 175-180 since I’m right at 5’11-6’0 (depending on shoes of course).

So, in an effort to get there, I’m taking part in Jason Calacanis’ great “FatBlogging” movement. I’ll be posting here about progress, trials and tribulations.

I’m using Traineo and FitDaily to keep tabs on my stats. If you are interested in loosing a few pounds, definitely check out Traineo… web2.0 weight management in all of it’s low calorie goodness.

Hopefully by the Affiliate Summit in June I’ll be well below the 200 marker and on my way to 175!

Keep me accountable and kick my butt-

New Phone Number

I’ve got a new universal phone number for my mobile, office and Skype numbers:

828.414.1824

If you ring that number, you’ll get a hold of me. So, please change my number in your address book.

BTW, this is through a great new service called GrandCentral which allows you to aggregate all of your numbers so that they all connect through a common number. It really is stupid to have a different land line, office and mobile number in this day and age.
