The funniest quote from the article, to me, is that "33% of married women believe that their pets are better listeners than are their husbands." Ha! Let me know what you think!

6/29/10 Everybody log onto kast1370.com for listen live today. Rather than the usual mid-day programming, there is a radiothon (sp?) for the Liberty Theater. Don't forget tonight is also a birthday celebration at the Liberty for Michael Foster to add to the fundraising efforts.

7/25/09 For a confirmation of the number of times an ad needs to be seen to be effective, click on this link: Say it again, Sam. The tricky part is that this was originally written in 1886 and is still PRETTY much valid today, except for the part about telling his wife to go buy the product.....:-)

7/10/09 This email newsletter called Email Insider contains several options for “fixing” errors in email messages even after they have been sent, including linking a photo to the incorrect -- yet sent-- address, notifying a site administrator of a page error, hopefully, before more recipients would have opened the email, sending a follow up correction email, or simply sending an apology. Read the full article at http://tinyurl.com/nehxya. Let me know what you think.

7/6/09 I received an email newsletter today which I consider to be a must-read. It covers marketing of luxury products and services to Baby Boomers and contains insight from Ben Kline of my “alma mater,” Leo Burnett in Chicago. Kline believes that consumers are not just cutting back on spending; they’re reassessing what is important. The article is succinct and well written and suggests a few strategies for marketers of luxury products. The link may be found at http://www.mediapost.com/publications/?fa=Articles.showArticle&art_aid=109222.

Let me know what you think of it.
