Guest Speaker

I spoke to the Association of Internet Marketers today. The topic was blogging and my co speaker was Shel Israel of Naked Conversations (its not what you think – his book is about blogging). We were quite in sync on what we were saying. I will read his book and report on it.

The group asked a lot of good questions about blogging. What about the legal department? Forget them but don’t be stupid. What about kids, wives and family – do they mind? Sometimes. How much time does it take? This of course is where I shone and shared my efficient blogging techniques like how to write an article in 20 minutes and some of my tricks like doing book reports, borrowing material etc.

I am preparing for more travel to the SYNNEX quarterly executive meeting later this week. When I travel I need to cram a full week’s work into a few days – so I seem a bit over busy. So I guess things are usual.

  1. Great presentation Jim. I attended the AIMS session and thought you offered a lot of useful information. I've blogged on it at http://www.thornleyfallisgroup.ca/propr/index.php/2006/shel-israel-and-jim-estill-on-blogging-for-executives/.
