In today’s video I discuss some thoughts on a marketing message or company mission versus the medium(s) used to spread that message. And of course I talk about nothing I learned in school or books, but instead look to Michael Jackson’s career for inspiration. :-)
So as you’ll see in my previous post, I was trying to win a trip to BizConf in Florida this August.
Well, guess what?
I’m excited to go, and I’ll be sure to report back with some of the valuable things I learn. Thanks to BizConf and Jason at IWearYourShirt.com for this opportunity!
Hey folks, just a quick post here to tell you about BizConf, and networking and learning conference in Florida limited to 75 participants. I’m trying to win a trip to the conference, and here is my entry video:
You know I love a good contest. :)
Okay, so this won’t really be a Jack Handey-related post, but I did start another blog called AnywhereMan that deals with topics concerning non-traditional working arrangements. By non-traditional I mean freelance, telecommute, or any other arrangement where a person can basically work from anywhere. That’s what I do, so I am “AnywhereMan.” :-)
Anyways, here the first video for my new blog and I’ll probably post some more here in the future, but you’ll be able to view ALL of them over at AnywhereMan.
In case you missed Google’s demo of the new Wave platform at I/O 2009 a few weeks ago, here is the video:
I am excited for this release. Collaboration tools just keep getting better and better, and Wave looks to really bridge the gap between email and instant messaging.
If you’re a client of Lift Development, you’ve probably received a nifty, emailed invoice. These invoices are generated based on the exact hours I’ve worked on your project and each time entry usually gets inserted as it’s own detailed line item. If you happen to forget to pay on time, after 30 days you receive an automatic (and friendly) email reminder to get you payment in on time. Once you pay your invoice, you receive a notification that your account is now current and paid in full. I have FreshBooks to thank for all of this.
Since branching off with Lift Development full-time at the start of last year, the one thing that I have NEVER had to worry about is my invoicing system. I use FreshBooks to set up project estimates, track my time on existing projects, do my monthly invoicing, keep status on payments, and run reports for tax purposes at the end of the year. Honestly, I have never even had to think about these things.
I’m a pretty big evangelist for these guys so I was happy to see that FreshBooks will be featured in this month’s Entrepreneur Magazine, one of my favorites. Congrats to them and thanks for designing such a fantastic web-based invoicing system!

Just wanted to quick post this excellent description of Twitter by super-duper social media master Gary Vaynerchuk. He explains why Twitter is so powerful and game-changing in a very short video:
