10:00 ET I’ll be appearing live on #TimTalk. We’ll be chatting about my book, The Visual Marketer.

Tim said it changed his life, so I’m curious to find out what he meant by this.

My excitement for a new project jumps way up once I find an ownable brand name with a good domain.

One of the strongest documentaries I’ve seen, ‘All I Can Say,’ is now streaming on Amazon.

It’s made from camcorder footage shot by Shannon Hoon during Blind Melon’s tragically short career. https://cdn.nostrcheck.me/328be6ceae394138e89b8ee89e0576b2d137955972d8852a5df7d892de7549c4/6051ef1c7b8ec3fb290a2ab8ae442ed103d7a4fe9e75d116867bdb6375c139fd.webp

I spent the last couple of days creating a new version of my book website.

I’m happy that it tells a better story of what the book offers, who it’s for, and what people are saying about the book.

Friday night and sitting in the parking lot near the place where my daughter is hanging with friends (in case she needs a quick escape).

Working on some #freelance sitemap work while I wait. Octopus.do is a helpful tool!

Some big announcements this week but this is surprising.

I’ve been doing database and DNS work on my website and sharing screenshots with ChatGPT is like doing a screenshare with tech support.

As a heavy user of #Notion, I’m curious to see how this can help with productivity.

Last week when I was going through caffeine withdrawal, I asked ChatGPT to organize my calendar based on tasks I wanted to accomplish this week.

So far, I’ve been very productive.

If anyone has a podcast and your target audience is marketers or communications pros, I have a topic they’ll find interesting.

My book, The Visual Marketer, is made for marketers who have to make their own graphics.

Let’s chat. https://cdn.nostrcheck.me/328be6ceae394138e89b8ee89e0576b2d137955972d8852a5df7d892de7549c4/a669d047ed5e656ab60871e758d684faa8e4e59e7738e71f53a8a291b3c0ce75.webp

I just spent 45 minutes talking with another creative about the #AvengersDoomsday cast announcement video.

It’s a great way to get those creative juices flowing when you’re examining the process and marketing implications.

I have to sign some books and get them in the mail.

A sentence I never thought I’d say out loud!
