Hello everyone, my name is John Wall and this is where I write about Marketing, Technology and whatever else I find interesting (your mileage may vary). Please check out Marketing Over Coffee, a podcast I do with Christopher Penn. I also have a weekly podcast called The M Show which is great for your commute to work (or even if you don't commute). BTW, I don't look this good, I have a great photographer. I can be reached at: john at themshow dot com

The Final Stunt

I can’t draw worth a damn, but when I thought of this it made me laugh so much that I had to put it on paper.
He was crazy, and every one my age loved him. I didn’t need to believe a man could fly, I saw it.
The guy was a Natural Born Marketeer too, think [...]

Over the Wire

So a friend of mine was talking about press release strategies and some shrinky dink was giving him a hard time saying that PRWeb is not a news service. He asked me for some clarification and I decided to kill two birds with one stone by posting about it.

Marketing Tips for Non-Profits

This week’s Marketing Over Coffee has a great list from Christopher Penn on 12 Marketing Tips for Non-Profits. If that’s not enough to get you I talk about how the average marketer can save their soul from eternal damnation.

Screw Your Customers

Any time I’ve seen Sprint advertising the Centro Palm smartphone it is with a $99 price. I have a Sprint plan with 4 phones on it that is running me over $100 a month. I called to get the Centro and the best price they could do was $250. The rep that I talked to [...]

The Case for The Holidays

As much as I want this blog to be a dignified treatise on Marketing, I was astonished at the runaway success of The Case for Drinking, a post which, in summary, covers Marketeers as social alcoholics. As much as it pains me to drag this blog down, Thanksgiving is hell for the monthly numbers so [...]

Happy Thanksgiving!

Get This

If you don’t have a GPS for your car you should buy one today. Imagine never printing Google maps or getting lost again. Drive around cities that you have no knowledge of with no problem. Buy.com has an insane deal of $124 after rebate.

Ron’s Predictions

My Inbox is also my To-Do list. If there’s a message that is part of an important project it stays in the box until it gets done. This can be a great productivity booster – many times if I am unsure about the importance of a project I leave it in the inbox. If I [...]

The Wrong Ladder

For the life of me I can’t remember if I first read of it in Covey’s 7 Habits, or the Covey Time Management book “First Things First“, but I’ve always loved the analogy of The Wrong Ladder.
So many times in life you are working as hard as you can but eventually you start to go [...]
