Webinar Wednesday

Posted on by lwidmer

What’s on the iPod: The Rifle’s Spiral by The Shins Busy morning, slower afternoon. I finished some revisions on a product flyer, revised some of the content at the About Writing Squared home page, and conducted an interview for a newsletter piece. By then it was 11  am. Good thing – personal errands had me…

What’s on the iPod: Super Bass by Nicki Minaj It’s wonderful to be back home. Those few days away felt like a million light years, and I feel like finally I’ve spent some of my summer outdoors. I’ve been way too busy and haven’t had time to go to the shore at all, let alone get…

What Fishing Has Taught Me About Business

Posted on by lwidmer

What’s on the iPod: Eight hours of everything we can listen to. We’re on our way home today. I’m sure I’m still on the “I don’t want to leave” high, but it’s about a minute after I get through customs that I start feeling the workload creeping up. I know I have work to get…

Posted on by lwidmer

What’s on the iPod: Right. We’re having fun! Still on a mini-vacation and hopefully having a great time (I suspect so). Because it’s Friday and because I’m not here, I decided to share one of the marketing strategies from my Marketing 365 book. Thanks to everyone who bought it (got my first check on Monday!), and…

Injecting Objectivity

Posted on by lwidmer

What’s on the iPod: Nothing! I’ve gone fishing instead. 🙂 I’m north right now, hopefully catching large fish instead of inventing stories about ones that got away. Before I left, I interviewed company risk people for an article on odd risks. One in particular was a woman from the NRA. She shared some incredible stories…

    I don't eat meat or poultry, but I wrote an article about pâté. (One of my interviewees had a lovely French accent, and even made discussing what was in pâté and related products and how they were made seem pleasant.) The one story I turned down was about sales & marketing efforts of a tobacco company.

    I'm accustomed to putting my opinions to the side. I have a few nice neighbors with some extreme political/moral views, but when their political yard signs go up I don't put up opposing signs. Thanks to their yard signs I know what issues to steer clear of when speaking with them. Like you said – I'm not going to convince them they're off their rockers, and they wouldn't be able to draw me into their beliefs, so why bother? We're all entitled to our own opinions and beliefs.
