Hi Mac,

Thanks for the link to my Blog (Insights into PR and Online Marketing) – always appreciated. Really enjoyed the McGraw-Hill poster. It reminds me of a client, let’s say he was called John Smith, who, after a year of concerted technical PR, entered a sales consultation and was asked by his prospective customer, “Are you the John Smith?”

Doesnt always happen by any means, but it’s truly satisfying when it does!

Out of curiosity, I visited the Vintage Ad Browser. Great site! Even found myself there, I wrote this: http://bit.ly/5ODmtL back in 1987.

Michael,

Thanks for pointing out that video of that Business Marketing Assocation (BMA) presentation. It is both entertaining and thought-provoking.

As a side note, I think all B2B marketers should belong to the BMA (www.marketing.org).
