First, a thousand thanks to the AMAOKC for having me moderate the 2015 Superbowl Showdown at the February meeting. I always LOVE doing it, and as I get older, my appreciation for being asked to do it escalates, yet I also know there’s gonna be a year when I’m too old or too irrelevant to […]
Before we get too far down the road in 2015 (if your new year is like mine, it’s already a whirlwind), let me say THANK YOU for a great 2014. To get to make my living in a profession I love is a blessing that I hope I never take for granted, and if I […]
Just a short, get-to-the-point post this week. Unusual for me, huh? What’s not so unusual for me is to sneak in a little self-promotion, so I’ll subtly do that now… Two articles I’d selfishly like very much for you to see: https://newsok.com/oklahoma-christian-professor-celebrates-20-years-of-ama-perfect-attendance/article/5361544 https://www.edmondsun.com/news/business/article_410c3586-50b6-11e4-9893-5f80ae2355e3.html?mode=image&photo=0 The message: THANKS to all those who made the journey possible. The […]
Thursday may be just another AMA meeting for some, but for me it’ll mark my 20th straight year to darken the doors of an AMA meeting. I have not missed a luncheon meeting since attending my first one way back in October of 1994. I’ll be attending meeting number 199 that day (it would be […]
It’s over a week in the rear-view mirror, but there’s still plenty abuzz about the incredible insights offered by the 2014 Super Bowl Panel hosted by the American Marketing Association of Oklahoma City (AMAOKC). Vice President (and soon-to-be-President-Elect) Stew Law, assembled this group of experts who offered their insights on a selection of the commercials. […]
In a couple of weeks I’ll be moderating the AMAOKC’s annual Super Bowl Showdown. I don’t get a vote in what gets picked or anything, but if you’re interested, here are some that I thought were worth talking about. It’ll be interesting to see if any of these make the cut. My bet is the […]
A while back I had the privilege of being interviewed by one of the marketers I admire most, AMAOKC Past-President and social media guru, Brian Blake. Brian hosts an informative podcast called the 7 Minute Smarketer and we had a good visit about how successful marketing is a lot like lifelong learning in that it’s […]
Sometimes being dead wrong can turn out to be a good thing! When the idea last year for doing an evening event at the Oklahoma City Chapter of the American Marketing Association came up, a banquet-type event (translation: labor-intensive event!), I was skeptical at first, and I said so. I did it in the same […]
