Personal Branding and Career Management

Joining me in this program is career management and personal branding expert Sherri Thomas, president of Career Coaching 360. Sherri suggests strategies for helping us keep our jobs or increase our chances of finding a new one in a hyper-competitive environment.

 

 

 

Social Networking and New Media

Marketers know they need to use new media tools but most are still figuring out their adoption strategies or trying to get buy-in from their senior staff or legal department. Joining me is author Lois Kelly to talk about how to get those conversations going and how to gauge your success.

 

 

 

Get Ready for the Brand Bubble to Burst

According to my guest, author John Gerzema, financial markets think many of today’s brands are worth more than the consumers who buy those brands. So, when reality hits – and with combined valuations into the trillions of dollars – it could hit hard.

 

 

 

Google Search Marketing

Search engine marketing – specifically paid search – is a way of life for most companies and marketers today. My guest, author Andrew Goodman, talks about how to get to the best placement for your ad and how to know if it is working and providing a good ROI?

 

 

 

Getting Your Ideas to Stick with PR and Consumers

We need a way to make our messages stand out from the crowd – and ad budgets have little to do with all this. Joining me on today's program is Dan Heath, co-author of the book Made to Stick: Why some ideas survive and others die. I think it’s a breakout book –really an instructional manual on how to make your own ideas stick.

 

 

 

The New Imperative for Chief Marketing Officers

If you lead the marketing for an organization of any size, your challenges covering issues like integration, alignment, and organizational collaboration. Joining me is David Aaker of Prophet who suggests a perspective that should help marketing leaders overcome what he sees at THE marketing problem of our time.

 

 

 

Tapping Into Social Media Conversations

Fundraising for Nonprofits Organizations

For the nonprofit marketers out there, we’re take your fundraising efforts to a whole new level with guest Marc Pitman, a multi-million dollar fundraiser and an expert on how to build up your development program. But everything covered can be applied to partnership development, co-branding efforts, and strategic alliances.

 

 

 

Pricing with Confidence

In a tight economy it’s likely that your business is a bit slow. But you still have a quota to fill, inventory to move, and sales to close. According to my guest, author Reed Holden, discounting and similar strategies may just be the worse thing you can do. He believes there is a recession-proof pricing strategy with a longer, more profitable view.

 

 

 

Punk Marketing -- A New Manifesto?

Join the revolution is their battle cry and one they’ve backed it up with a 13-point manifesto, several references to some really good music, and a new term I expect you’ll hear tossed around the office pretty soon as the new  buzz word – which may just drive my two guests today totally batty. Join authors Richard Laermer and Mark Simmons as they discuss a new approach to marketing.

 

 

 

Word of Mouth Marketing

Viral and word of mouth marketing is one of the top areas of focus for today’s marketers. This show features the guy who wrote the book on the subject – literally. Author Andy Sernovitz, founder of the Word of Mouth Marketing Association, talks about his practical book on word of mouth marketing.

 

 

 

 

New Rules of Marketing and PR

Smart marketers communicate with buyers through content rich Web sites, blogs, YouTube videos, ebooks, and other online media that buyers actually want to consume.

  Branding Only Works on Cattle

Your branding is useless…that’s the first chapter in the book by author Jonathan Salem Baskin, Branding only Works on Cattle.

His perspective may just be the key to getting known and driving your competitors crazy.
