About More Conversation


Somebody borrowed my copy of AoC and hasn't brought it back. Sadly, the pilfering coincides with a move to a new cube. Should have checked the neighborhood a little closer, I reckon. The good part is that the book is chock full of wit, wisdom and insight on conversational marketing so maybe it will rub off. All they had to do was ask! We still may have a point or two to talk about.

Right now I'm glad for my electronic version AND that whoever it was took the book before pricing changes. Drew writes about the changes - including a move to Amazon - here. You still have time this week to grab a couple copies at the initial price level. It would be nice for the book to get a good bump before holiday time descends upon us. I mean, when was the last time you were able to be part of the Internet crashing to a standstill? Everybody seems to be talking about the news - Chris even suggests trying to explode the web on December 14 :)

Remember it comes down to helping Variety - its mission is children.

The quality, breadth and diversity of these contributors continues to astound me.

Thanks for keeping the buzz going Bob.

We need all the WOM we can get leading up to the Bum Rush on the 14th!

We have to reach farther than we did the first time around.

Bob, thanks for keeping the conversation going on AoC! I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving, too.

You bet C.B. - one of the surprises I had over Thanksgiving days off was to see your smiling face on YouTube ...the interview from MarketingProfs conference with AnnH. You were great!
