Marketing news of the day
Pegasystems hires a Chief Marketing Officer Grant Johnson and issues a press release to announce it. That’s good for Pegasystems CEO Alan Trefler, but I believe every company of any size needs a Chief Marketing Officer today. Glad Alan got religion and caught the marketing bug and I hope more catch it, And thanks to my son, Kevin, for the awesome short 2:36 video if you click on Chief Marketing Officer,
Since I am a Notre Dame grad, I have to go root on the Fighting Irish, although they
have not been very good lately. So many injuries to key players like middle linebacker Joe Schmidt have hurt a lot, Football is like life, Every day you deal with challenges and you keep moving on.
My son at the University of Delaware is a big fan, of the Fighting Irish too, which is really nice for me, That is why I will be at MacDinton’s Irish Pub in South Tampa this afternoon, Hope to see you there.
By the way, the big black security guard there is named Country and he is a former football player for South Florida. Really nice man. Never forget what people tell you, People appreciate that.
Cute waitresses too, One young pretty waitress had a frown on her face so I told her “You are a very pretty young girl. But if you smile, you will be beautiful.” She started smiling and it made a big difference.
I love to help people, and that s why I have over 6,313 Twitter followers (follow @fearlesscomp) and over 2,700 LinkedIn connections including Alan Trefler of Pegasystems. Being the Creator and Host of Marketing Made Simple TV did not hurt either, because it turned into a podcast for the Sales Lead Management Association entitled “How to Become Famous and Meet Really Cool People.” I wanted a title to grab attention and I got one.
The show gave me fame and I met so many cool guests, but I won’t name them now,.However, check out The Top 10 Guests on Marketing Made Simple TV - our most popular post in a VERY long time,
I’m also President of the Business Marketing Association of Tampa Bay and it is coming very soon, according to the email I just received from the BMA The Board is nearly complete and we have our first guest speaker booked too, I just received the New Chapter Checklist and there is a lot of work to do, but not quickly because of a merger.
I could not be more excited to bring this great marketing group to Tampa soon to help so many Tampa area companies with business to business marketing. I know so many top marketing experts, we will have a great guest speaker list too.
Happy Birthday, Grandma Lucy!
While I may be the hardest working and the best connected man in business, today is Saturday. I’m a slim, smart and fit divorced man looking for just the right woman. If that’s you and you are slim and single, come down to MacDinton’s Irish Pub and say “Hello” to me like security guard Country did.
