Six Pixels of Separation Podcast

Welcome to episode #338 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. This is also episode #24.20 of Across The Sound. Joseph Jaffe is widely regarded as one of the top Marketing Bloggers (Jaffe Juice) and Podcasters (both Jaffe Juice in audio and Jaffe Juice TV in video). He is the author of three excellent books (Life After The 30-Second Spot, Join The Conversation and Flip The Funnel) and his latest business venture is, Evol8tion. A long-time friend (and one of the main inspirations behind the Six Pixels of Separation Blog and Podcast), we've decided to hold semi-regular conversations, debates and back-and-forths that will dive a little deeper into the Digital Marketing and Social Media landscape. This is our 24th conversation (or, as I like to affectionately call it, Across The Sound 23.20). In this episode, we discuss the changing and evolving description we use for "creative," and what it means to be a creative in 2012... pushing into 2013. Enjoy the conversation...

Beth Kanter, passionate about technology and connectivity in social media for nonprofits, shares her insights on leveraging social media to make a difference. She discusses her journey in the nonprofit sector, the success of her books, and the importance of goals and measurement in nonprofits. She also explores the stages of measurement acceptance, balancing measurement and relationship-building, and the power of online fundraising.

Welcome to episode #336 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. I've got a bit of guilt about the recording of this podcast. I tend to record as many shows as possible, stock them up and then release them as I can. In the rush of things a few months back, I wound up recording more shows that I usually do. Tom Webster (aka BrandSavant) is Vice President of Strategy for Edison Research, most widely-known as the sole providers of U.S. Election exit polling data to all major media outlets. In the race up to the last U.S. presidential elections, I know how swamped Tom was, but he agreed to be on my show to help promote another project he has called,  The Social Habit, that looks at social media research. So, what you're getting is a podcast that was recorded before Barack Obama took office for a second term. That being said, none of the content we discussed was time-sensitive. Lastly, Tom is both incredibly smart, insanely funny and has a dry sense of sarcasm (or, a man after my own heart). In short, it was a total pleasure to finally have him on the show.

Welcome to episode #335 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. Innovation is something desperately and constantly needed in marketing. Thankfully, there are innovative thinkers like Dave Gray around to help us out. He is the author of two excellent books (Gamestorming and The Connected Company), and is currently the SVP of Strategy at the Dachis Group. In full disclosure, I was most interested in speaking with Gray after reading The Connected Company and did not even realize that he was also the author of Gamestorming. The truth is that social media has changed more than the marketing part of business (hence, the burgeoning term, "social business"). It's going to take discussions - like the one you are about to hear - and lot more c-suite actions for all of us to better understand how this all comes together. Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #334 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. Please excuse the nepotism, but I treat Chris Brogan and Julien Smith like family. The two are more than close friends, they are the best-selling business book authors of Trust Agents and recently published their sophomore effort, The Impact Equation. As the book continues to steadily climb the best-sellers lists, Brogan and Smith took some time out of their hectic schedules to discuss the new book and why it's so much more than follow-up to their first effort and how it's not about social media (while still being about social media). It's a great read if you're trying to figure out how to make the work that you do not only resonate, but for it to create true value and merit in the world. Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #333 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. There are few people that fascinate me as much as Tim Ferriss. He's young (35 years old), has two bestselling books (The 4-Hour Workweek and The 4-Hour Body) and a soon-to-be third one (The 4-Hour Chef). If that weren't enough, he is also an angel investor and advisor for companies like Facebook, Twitter, StumbleUpon, Evernote, Uber and many others. If you're not impressed by that, Tim also holds a Guinness Book of World Records record in tango dancing and won a Chinese kickboxing championship. Like I said, he's an impressive young man, and that's not even scratching the surface on his bio. Currently, he's trying to prove the book retail business wrong by releasing his newest book, The 4-Hour Chef - The Simple Path to Cooking Like a Pro, Learning Anything, and Living the Good Life, on Amazon's publishing imprint (which many of the major retailers have refused to carry). I'm someone who can't boil an egg or turn on a barbeque, so trust me when I say: this book is not just about cooking. It's really a book about how you can  learn to do anything well (and fast and efficiently). Enjoy the conversation... Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #332 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. There are few kinder people than Mark Miller. I had the pleasure of meeting Mark many years ago at my first TED conference. I didn't know anyone (and this can make it kind of awkward) and Mark was always kind, welcoming and willing to invite anyone and everyone into a conversation. I think I leaned on that kindness more than I should have at that first event, and over the years I would look forward to running into him at every TED. Mark is the author of three excellent books on leadership titled, Great Leaders Grow (his latest), The Secret Of Teams and The Secret. With each of these books, Mark worked (at varying levels) with Ken Blanchard (master author of books like, The One Minute Manager, Who Moved My Cheese?, Raving Fans and many more). I had been chomping at the bit to chat with Mark about his thoughts on what it takes to be a great leader. Mark is also the Vice President of Organizational Effectiveness at chick-fil-a. Our chat finally happened and the timing was, somewhat awkward. Chick-fil-a had created a firestorm when their COO, Dan Cathy, made several public statements about his thoughts on same sex marriage. Being who I am, I had to ask Mark about this as well. For the record: I am all for two things: happiness and peace. If two people want to be together and love each other, I don't care who they are (or what they are), so long as they are adding more happiness and peace to the world. This podcast (and the blog) are never political, so I did my best to navigate the issue. I hope I both didn't let any of the regular listeners down while, at the same time, respecting and honoring my friendship and admiration for the way Mark thinks about business and leadership.

Welcome to episode #331 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. I do love Nilofer Merchant. I was introduced to her via Tara Hunt and we have been friends for many years. She is an author (The New How), a corporate director and a great speaker on business and innovation. Most recently, she published a new book, 11 Rules For Creating Value In The Social Era, and it's a fantastic read. The book was based on some of her contributions to Harvard Business Review and I do my best to never miss anything that she publishes. In this episode, we discuss her new book and other insights about social media, social business and the future of making money. Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #329 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. It's hard to believe that Avinash Kaushik didn't turn his blog post, Facebook Advertising / Marketing: Best Metrics, ROI, Business Value, into a book. He should have. This one is a whopper. Over 10,000-plus words (and yes, do whatever it takes to make the time read it). What's interesting is that Avinash is the Digital Marketing Evangelist at Google. This doesn't mean that he only evangelizes for Google. He evangelizes about digital marketing. The blog post was so powerful, I was compelled to have him back on the show to talk about Facebook marketing and what the true opportunity is for brands and agencies. The best-selling business book author of Web Analytics - An Hour A Day and Web Analytics 2.0 doesn't disappoint. Take a listen and enjoy the conversation...
