Fake it till you make it, and other bad ideas - GM52
Thursday Jan 28, 2021
Thursday Jan 28, 2021
There are a lot of really bad ideas in the online marketing space, that seem like good ideas when you first hear them.
But at the top of the list:
Fake it till you make it
Not only does it undermine the credibility of the person faking it, but it also hurts the credibility of the entire space.
Why not call it what it is, - "lie to your community, hopefully, they are too stupid to ever figure it out"!

De-Platformed - GM51
Thursday Jan 21, 2021
Thursday Jan 21, 2021
Chaos reigns in the social media world, last week, Twitter released the following
Permanent suspension of @realDonaldTrump
By Twitter Inc.
Friday, 8 January 2021
After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them — specifically how they are being received and interpreted on and off Twitter — we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence.
....
It should be a wake-up call for us all, I am not speaking of the political ramifications, but for our business.
The spectre of potential de-platforming looks above us all.

The Hardest Thing - GM49
Thursday Jan 07, 2021
Thursday Jan 07, 2021
We are back!
Relaunching a podcast is a hard thing to do.
It is like getting back to the gym after you have been away for a while.
All the same guilt, disappointment in yourself for letting it slide.
The anxiety that you have hard work ahead of you, and fear that you may let yourself down again.
So with a great deal of humility, I am sheepishly coming back to the gym, a few pounds heavier, a bit tentative, but determined to make it a habit once again.
This week I take the opportunity to reinforce the mission of this podcast, and my hopes for the community as we try and put 2020 in the rearview mirror.
