  • How to capture your 15 minutes of fame

    “In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes.” – Andy Warhol, 1968

    These days, your 15 minutes of fame are more likely than ever thanks to social media and the Internet. In just hours, you can go from obscurity to the front page of every news site, from unknown to speaking with national government leaders.

    However, as Warhol pointed out, attention is fleeting. No one keeps the spotlight forever. If your company is fortunate enough (or has a good enough PR agency) to get the spotlight, how do you make the most of it?

    Here are the basic steps for how to capture your 15 minutes of fame:

    15 minutes of fame.png

    Step 1: Prepare. Fame is like a tidal wave. You might or might not see it coming, and unless it’s massive, you don’t get a sense of how powerful it is until the wave breaks. Prepare in advance, the same way a surfer paddles out in advance to catch the wave. What should you prepare?

    • An email marketing system. You’ll need a way to capture email addresses.
    • Analytics. Best in class tools like Google Analytics let you segment your visitors. Be sure to define goals and goal values!
    • Remarketing. Remarketing is a powerful advertising system, but only if it’s deployed in advance.

    Example: in Twitter’s Ad Manager, you can set up a custom web-based audience tracker. I’d recommend having a handful of remarketing tags pre-made, with the tracking tags stored in Evernote or dormant in your CMS.

    That way, if something starts to happen, all you need to do is fish out the tag and deploy it immediately.

    Step 2: Tag. The moment you see the wave headed your way, get your tags live, turn on your systems, create segmentations in Google Analytics, and make sure your audiences are being identified by your systems. It’s important to have real-time analytics turned on so you can validate that things are working as intended:

    Step 3: Capture. When you’ve got the spotlight, be proactive (nicely) about asking people to take action. Ask them to subscribe, ask them to follow you, ask them to visit your website/blog. Get them into the places where conversions are trackable, where audiences are taggable. Don’t assume people will automatically do what you want them to do.

    Step 4: Remarket. No wave lasts forever. In fact, few waves last for more than a split second. When the attention fades, when the spotlight moves on, reach out to everyone you’ve tagged, tracked, and captured.

    As soon as the spotlight moves on, turn on your remarketing ads and remind people why they visited you in the first place. Send them an email with tangible next steps they can take, and what’s next for you. You got the spotlight for a reason; extend that reason with what’s next and why people should continue to remain interested in you.

    Whether or not you ever recapture the spotlight, if you prepare and execute well, you can make your 15 minutes of fame deliver lasting impact to your business.

  • Ahmed Mohammed is one of us nerds

    The Ahmed Mohammed case struck a chord with me not just because of his ethnicity, but for something more personal. The kid is a nerd. A tinkerer. A maker.

    When I was 9, I nearly killed myself with a clock, because I had the bright idea to disassemble one – while it was still plugged in. (smart doesn’t necessarily mean good judgment) I learned that day what an electric arc is as one cut the screwdriver I was using in half and blew a fuse.

    Growing up, I spent a fair share of my time being made fun of, occasionally getting stuffed in a middle school locker or beaten up on the playground. I was never athletic, never tall, never strong, never popular. I was a nerd. Yet decades later and despite the best efforts of some to achieve a different outcome, I not only preserved what it means to be a nerd but managed to thrive because of it.

    Us nerds have to stick together, and that’s perhaps why you’ve seen a disproportionately larger response because of it. Ahmed Mohammed is one of us, and we know how tough the journey to adulthood will be already, without ethnic hatred to compound it.

  • Why 19th century figureheads are still relevant to marketing today

    Once upon a time, the word figurehead was not a pejorative, as it tends to be today. Today, we refer to someone as a figurehead if they’re highly visible but relatively powerless, like the Vice President of the United States or the British royal family. Once upon a time, however, a figurehead was not only an important word, it was a marketing word.

    Turn back the clock to the age of sail and wooden ships, as I did recently on a visit to Connecticut’s Mystic Seaport. The figurehead was a literal fixture of wooden ships, a large carved ornament that was typically placed on the front of a ship:

    Mystic Seaport figureheads

    What purpose did these ornate works of art serve? They were the 19th century equivalent of corporate logos for the merchant vessels they were mounted on. These figureheads were the brands of the ships.

    How did they work? Imagine you’re walking along the New York City harbor, looking for a vessel. During the age of sail, many ships tended to look very similar, like this fleet of schooners:

    Image from page 178 of "The photographic history of the Civil War : in ten volumes" (1911)

    Now imagine that literacy isn’t what it is today, and that 1 out of 5 people couldn’t read at all. How would you tell someone to meet your ship? You’d have to give them some image-based reference, in the same way that Bostonians tell people how to navigate around Kenmore Square by using the giant Citgo sign as a reference.

    If you said to someone, go meet the David Crockett at Pier 39, they might struggle to get there. If you told them to meet the David Crockett, the ship with the pioneer holding a rifle on the front, at Pier 39, chances are they’d be much more successful at finding the ship:

    Mystic Seaport figureheads

    The figurehead was an icon for its era, the way that customers could tell your ship apart from the many others that looked very similar to it.

    How is this relevant to marketing today? Think about all the different digital “ships” we “sail” that look identical in bulk:

    Our resumes look very similar.
    Our websites look very similar.
    Our business cards look very similar.
    Our social media profiles look very similar.

    The 19th century’s lesson on figureheads is more important than ever. What visually sets you apart from everything and everyone else? Instead of a single harbor crowded with hundreds of ships, we have social networking sites crowded with hundreds of millions of profiles. Not only do you need a unique selling proposition, you need a unique or easily distinguished visual presence as well.

    As the ship owners did in the 19th century, so you should today invest in good design, good photography, good imagery. If you don’t have the money, invest the time to learn the skill yourself. Otherwise, your “passengers” will never make it aboard in the first place.

  • What is the best microphone for podcasting?

    One of the perennial questions I’ve gotten as a veteran podcaster is, “What is the best microphone for podcasting?”.

    There are three answers to this question.

    Answer 1: Like the best camera, the best microphone is the one you have with you when you want to record some audio. In the era of nearly ubiquitous wi-fi and LTE networks, chances are you’ll have opportunities to record. If you have no gear with you, you can’t record no matter how good the moment is. Fortunately, smartphones are quite capable recorders in a pinch.

    Answer 2: The best microphone is the microphone you can afford. When you’re starting out, get whatever’s affordable, especially if you’re not sure podcasting is for you. Once you determine whether you enjoy the medium (and/or it has executive support, if you’re doing it for a company), you can re-invest in audio gear, but you don’t need much more than the basics to start.

    Answer 3: The best microphone is the one that works best with your voice. Microphones all handle sound differently. Some are designed to bring in sound from specific directions. Others are designed to catch specific frequencies.

    Here’s an example. I recorded a series of 4 audio segments with 4 different kinds of microphones. Listen to the difference:

    Here’s a visualization of that audio:

    spectral_analysis.png

    What we see is that samples 1 and 3 pick up a lot of stuff. There’s a lot of noise, as evidenced by the brighter red and yellows at the top half of each of their sections. Sample 2 is missing a big chunk of stuff, largely because of limitations of the smartphone. Sample 4 is the semi-pro microphone that’s designed to reject some noise – from different directions and on certain frequencies – while giving priority to specific sounds. My voice, which occupies the lowest quarter of the diagram, is bigger and brighter in sample 4 than in the other samples.

    Is this the best microphone for podcasting? It is for me, but the same is not true for everyone. Every voice is unique and different, and occupies different frequencies. What works for me will not necessarily work for you; no one would expect a microphone that makes James Earl Jones sound amazing will do the same for Mariah Carey or Taylor Swift.

    So, how do you choose the best microphone based on your voice? The short answer is to go out and test as many as you can. Some music stores will let you bring a laptop and record samples of your voice to see what suits you best. Or go to an event like a PodCamp and try out other podcasters’ microphones.

    Conclusion

    The best microphone is a blend of what you have when you need it, what you can afford, and what’s optimum for your voice. Without hesitation, the microphone that you actually use is the best one, whereas a microphone that just sits and collects dust is worthless, no matter how high quality it is.

  • Summarizing Seth Godin at #INBOUND15 in 16 tweets

    The opening keynote of INBOUND15 was none other than Seth Godin. In 16 tweets, here’s what he had to say:

    A concise summation of marketing’s role.

    Rather than who your customers are now. What’s aspirational to them?

    Ask yourself the tough question. Would anyone miss you?

    Most people behave in an opposite fashion. They want to take credit and shift blame.

    “This might work. This might not work.”

    Another perspective on marketing.

    Our fear of risk mires us down in the procedural.

    The literal truth. Resumes. CVs. LinkedIn profiles. None of it speaks to what you will do next that’s great, because you haven’t done it yet.

    A reference to being the linchpin.

    A reference to what’s stopping us from innovating. It’s not technology. It’s fear.

    A reference to Tribes and not trying to please everyone.

    No one can reassure you that something which has never been done before is going to work.

    Infinite games are games without winning or endings, like playing catch with your children.

    Referencing connection.

    Referencing Tribes again; you don’t need permission as much as you need connection and a common purpose.

    The final word of the evening, and a great way to think about how we as marketers must change.

    Looking forward to INBOUND15 day 2. If you’re at the event, see you at 1:30 for my talk on Measuring PR in the 21st Century.

  • 9 Tips to make the most of INBOUND15

    Tour_Guide_and_Google_Earth.png

    For many digital marketers, this is the week they come to Boston to be a part of INBOUND15, Hubspot’s annual user conference. This year promises to be bigger in every way, so here are some basic survival tips for the show and Boston in general.

    First and foremost: do not attempt, for any reason, to drive in Boston. The roads near the BCEC are a confusing mess normally. Boston is served by both Uber and Lyft (Lyft tends to be cheaper) so make liberal use of them. We also have the nation’s oldest public transit system, and its antiquated nature and frequent delays live up to this reputation.

    Second: The BCEC is big. By big, I mean aircraft carrier big. It’s 2.1 million square feet, or roughly the same amount of square footage as the Empire State Building in New York City. It’s .22 miles long, whereas the USS Nimitz is .2 miles long. To walk around the BCEC once is approximately 3/4 of a mile. It’s also dry as a bone inside, which means dehydration. Comfortable walking shoes and a water bottle are an absolute must.

    Third: Pro conference networking tip. Launch the Twitter app on your smartphone. Search the conference hashtag, #INBOUND15. See all those people using the hashtag? Follow them. Follow all of them. It’ll keep your thumb busy for an hour or two, but it will help set you up for success at the event. Yes, you’ll gain a few Twitter followers, but more important, you’ll be able to create opportunities to connect with people once you’re at the event.

    Fourth: Avoid taking notes about what’s on slides. The slides are in all likelihood going to be posted online. Instead, take notes on the things you think of while you’re watching speakers present. You’ll have ideas going off in your head left and right, but if all your bandwidth is taken up trying to be a court stenographer, you’ll come away with mediocre notes and no good ideas.

    Five: Don’t wear a NY Yankees shirt while in Boston. More of a public safety tip than a conference tip, but just fair warning. Conversely, wearing Boston Red Sox or New England Patriots gear slightly improves the likelihood that your bartender will give you a decent pour.

    Six: Arrive with a burning question. If you want to make INBOUND15 as fruitful as possible, come with a question you MUST get the answer to, and ask it of as many people as you reasonably can to get multiple perspectives. Avoid coming to the event with only vague ideas of what you might want to accomplish.

    Seven: If there’s a speaker you want to talk to, reach out to them BEFORE they speak. When a speaker gets offstage, they’re usually swamped by people asking for business cards, have one more question, etc. and the likelihood that you’ll get to ask your burning question is pretty slim. Reach out in advance, even day of, offer to buy them a drink, and let them know what your burning question is. Some speakers (myself included) even arrive in their session rooms early and then stand around for 15-20 minutes while AV gets set up – a great time to ask a burning question!

    Eight: Be good to yourself. If your goal at INBOUND15 is to walk away with as much actionable knowledge as possible, you’ll need to eat right, get more sleep than you usually do, and party in moderation (if at all). Your brain cells need to be firing on all cylinders, so eating junk, drinking enough coffee to burn a second hole in your stomach lining, and being so drunk that you can’t remember your own name are all going to dampen your nerd skills. Treat your body and brain right.

    Nine: The good stuff still happens in the halls. Sessions are important, unquestionably. However, the best conversations, the best trading of tips and tricks – all that happens in the halls, between sessions, and in casual moments. Understanding that many folks are introverts, still attempt to join conversations. Sit down at crowded tables during meals. Be the first to ask simple questions like, “how was your last session?” and gather as much knowledge as you can.

    Good luck at INBOUND15! (and catch my session on Wednesday at 1:30 on measuring PR)

  • Why do marketing strategies fail?

    Why do marketing strategies fail?

    • Is it because we don’t have the right tools? Perhaps.
    • Do we not have the right people? Maybe.
    • Do we have a bad strategy? This is most likely.

    What is a failing marketing strategy? Recall the definition of strategy that we put forth in Marketing Blue Belt:

    blue_belt_slides.png

    Strategy, succinctly put, is goals x methods, limited by time and resources/environment.

    I’ve spoken to too many marketers recently who have said, “well, we’re not really sure what our goals are” or “we don’t know what kind of budget we have to work with” or “we’re not sure what tools we should be using”. These are all statements indicating your strategy is headed for failure.

    • If you have no goals, you have no strategy.
    • If you have no tools or methods, you have no strategy.

    Even more important are mismatches. When I was writing Marketing Blue Belt, Bryce Moore pointed out that goals and methods are multiplicative. When you multiply a positive by a negative, it becomes a negative. Thus:

    • Right goals but wrong methods? Your strategy will still fail.
    • Wrong goals but right methods? Your strategy will still fail.

    Finally, the limits on the equation of time and resources can make even the right combination of goals and methods fail to be effective.

    • If you have no resources, any strategy you devise will not be something you can execute.
    • If you have no time, no strategy will have time to achieve its goals.

    As you review the past and plan for the future in your marketing, ask yourself these tough questions to determine where your marketing strategy fell down:

    • Did I have the right goals?
    • Did I have the right methods?
    • Did I have enough resources to execute?
    • Did I have enough time to execute?

    This simple diagnostic test will tell you what went wrong – and how to fix it.

  • Life lesson from a salt shaker

    Salt shaker

    When I sat down to breakfast one morning in Honolulu, I noticed that the salt shaker’s cap was very loose.

    Ah, I thought to myself, something in the world that needs a bit of fixing; I put the cap on correctly. A minor triumph to start the day, restoring order to the universe.

    A moment later, I tried to use the salt shaker and nothing came out.

    It turns out that Honolulu’s morning air was so dense and humid that all the salt stuck together. The previous occupants of the table (or perhaps the wait staff) had loosened it so that you could pour a clump out and sprinkle the salt with your fingers.

    This is a small life lesson on the power of delusion, of seeing the world how you want it to be instead of seeing it how it really is. I saw the salt shaker as “wrong” when in fact it was perfectly right for the environment it was in. I wanted things to be different than they were instead of understanding why the world worked in that way in the first place.

    It’s a small, painless cautionary tale for everything in life: see the world the way it is, not the way you want it to be. Once you do, you might understand the world a little bit better. I certainly did.

  • Simple travel tip: USPS flat rate large box

    When I travel on business, I occasionally do pick up things from my travels, such as interesting trade show giveaways, the random souvenir, client materials, etc. After a few trips, you learn to minimize what you pack and travel with. Going on the road is easy – you have total control over what you pack. Coming back after travel? You can get some interesting wildcards in your luggage.

    Consider then, what it costs to bring some extra stuff back:

    average_baggage_fees_-_Google_Search.png

    Depending on what you’re carrying, the checked baggage fee may cost more than the items are worth.

    For less stress, less heavy lifting, and less money, this has become my new best friend:

    Priority_Mail_Large_Flat_Rate_Box.png

    The USPS charges 18 for half a cubic foot of space. Granted, that’s not as large as a checked bag, but I don’t have to carry it with me. On my most recent business trip, I had a half cubic foot of extra stuff, and this did the trick.18 later, my luggage was about 15 pounds lighter and I didn’t have to worry about fitting into an overhead compartment nearly as much. In fact, for future trips, I may be able to even ship basics and avoid the larger bag entirely.

    Next time you’ve got some business travel and a little more cargo than you anticipated, don’t forget about the $18 box from the Post Office.

    Disclosure: I was not compensated or asked to write about the Post Office’s large box.
