The Public Thinks This Is My Best Stuff

Hello everyone, my name is John Wall and this is where I write about Marketing and whatever else I find interesting (your mileage may vary). You can also listen to Marketing Over Coffee, a podcast I do with Christopher Penn. I was also involved in the late, great M Show. BTW, I don't look this good, I have a great photographer. I can be reached at: john at themshow dot com

24

As my vacation at an undisclosed location (for your safety, not mine) continues, I managed to go 24 hours straight with no technology. I can’t remember the last time I’ve done that. Unfortunately it’s end of month and that means the numbers have to go in, but the good news is that it’s bonus payout [...]

Audio Explosion

So I have still been running around like crazy. The sales kickoff was last week and I’m also trying to get everything together for an event in Toronto, and vacation before that up in Northern Michigan.
I’d love to say that I haven’t been able to write in the blog because I’ve been so busy working [...]

Why Blogging Changes Journalism

Boston Red Sox Pitcher Curt Schilling gives an amazing first person account of his shoulder surgery. It’s as if your your own brother played Major League Baseball and showed up at the family reunion with the tale of his latest surgery, and even some pictures to freak out the kids. Besides the surgery you get [...]

Roasting Scott Monty

Last Friday a group of Boston Professionals met to send Scott Monty off to Michigan for his new job with Ford. In the spirit of a classic roast, most of the jokes were at his expense or at Crayon’s (apologies in advance to the Crayonistas).
Please keep in mind this is explicit content, and not safe [...]

Hanging with the Mad Man

“It’s all over for you Mickey…”
I have not vanished off the face of the earth (although my cellphone did in New York City this weekend, but that’s a tale for another day).
Lots of interesting stuff over the past couple of days. I’m putting the final touches on the audio for the Scott Monty roast from [...]

Scoring and the Buying Cycle

Having worked with a scoring system for a couple of months, I’ve been watching closely to see what I can learn about how to set it up properly. I was fortunate enough to catch a great session at the MarketingProfs B2B event earlier this summer, and I have a co-worker that has hooked me up [...]

July 11th – Roasting Scott Monty

The countdown is on for the Social Media Roast of Scott Monty. Come join us for a steak dinner and a chance to berate Scott. If you are unable to make it to Boston, feel free to send over any text, audio, or video you want to send. Depending on the virtual response we may [...]

Lacking the Will to Write

It’s the weekend and I am. I really should be working on the book project, but the weather’s just too nice and I’m going outside to enjoy it.
I have tackled a bunch of paperwork, and just completed the monthly backup (and you should too).
Last night I watched Tin Man, which was excellent, if you were [...]
