I’ve just returned from a few days in Chicago where I gave a presentation on recycling content. The event, hosted by Orbit Media, sold out which was awesome and I was able to connect with wonderful people. If you’re in need of a website, the Orbit Media team led by Andy Crestodina should be your first stop.
Introducing: Creative Marketing Brief

In the midst of this whirlwind Chicago weekend, I also finally launched my agency’s brand new podcast, Creative Marketing Brief!
The podcast is created for digital marketers who are motivated to maximize their results but are crunched for time. It’s designed specifically to help you begin your day with tangible, easily applicable, inspiring information. Here’s what you can expect, in a nutshell:
- Hosted by me
- Released daily
- 90 seconds long
- Featuring some of my favorite, expert marketers and digital business gurus
- Advice, inspiration, resources, and action steps
As of right now, you can listen on Google Podcasts and Stitcher. We are working on getting it up and running on Apple Podcasts, and most importantly, Amazon Flash Briefings.
