Never a Lack of Ideas

I read a lot about marketing. A lot. Yesterday, one of my favorite marketing authors wrote about my book and I'm so proud that I wanted to share about it. Andy Sernovitz writes a daily blog called Damn I Wish I'd Thought of That . I've been reading it every day for eight years. I've read Andy's book and attended several of his trainings. He's a brilliant marketer who I respect very much. When I sent him a review copy of my book, he graciously offered to read it and help spread the word about it if it was worth sharing.

I would love if you'd write a review of it, but you can also simply tell a friend about it or share it via social media. (If you share it on social media, please include #marketingpriorities.) Let me know that you did the first two things and where I should send the button. Then, sport it on your clothes or bag everywhere you go. If you take a picture of yourself wearing it and send it to me, I'll upload it to a little photo gallery for everyone to see. I'm trying to start a movement in which organizations no longer invest time and money into market...
