Thinking With Mitch Joel

Welcome to episode #264 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. Mark W. Schaefer over at Grow Blog just published his first business book, The Tao of Twitter, so beyond a conversation about why the world needs another book about Twitter, we also spent a boatload of time discussing and dissecting power, influence and the Social Web. While you may have read or heard about this topic before, the landscape continues to evolve and we dive much deeper (well beyond the value of Klout scores and the ROI of a Facebook "like") into the murky waters of presumed compliance and more. Enjoy the conversation... Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast - Episode #264 - Host: Mitch Joel. Running time: 59:28.

Welcome to episode #263 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. How far would you go to get something done? Derek Sivers was an independent artist trying to sell his CDs online back in 1998. None of the big online retailers of music would sell his music. He wasn't on a major label and he wasn't a "known" entity. Instead of sulking about it, Sivers went out, bought a book on Web programming, turned to page one and started to figure out - on his own - how to build a website and integrate it with a merchant account. This led to creation of CD Baby - which quickly grew to become the largest seller of independent music and artists in the world. In 2008, Sivers sold CD Baby for $22 million. Most recently, he released his first business book, Anything You Want, on Seth Godin's The Domino Project book publishing imprint. It's an amazing and candid look at what it takes to create a great company (and it's a powerful story for all Marketers to hear). This past week, I published the Blog post, Anything You Want, and some of the quote were culled from this chat with Sivers. Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #261 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. Christopher S. Penn is a deadly weapon... and I mean that in the kindest sense of the saying. Yes, he's a practicing Martial Artist, but he's a more dangerous Marketing weapon. He's that rare breed of deeply tech savvy professional combined with an understanding of Marketing that will make your head spin. His full-time job is at Blue Sky Factory, but he's also one of the co-founders of PodCamp, co-host (with John Wall) of the great Podcast, Marketing Over Coffee, and a very passionate Blogger at Awaken Your Superhero. More recently, he self-published his first business book, White Belt Marketing, with the hopes of helping those entering the Marketing realm to think differently about what Marketing means in this day and age. And yes, he's also an active participant in our Media Hacks Podcast (when we get around to them!). Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #260 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. This is also episode #15.20 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). A long-time friend (and one of the main inspirations behind the Six Pixels of Separation Blog and Podcast), we've decided to hold monthly conversations, debates and back-and-forths that will dive a little deeper into the Digital Marketing and Social Media landscape. This is our 15th conversation (or, as I like to affectionately call it, Across The Sound 15.20), and this one focuses on Twitter and how brands, individuals and people in power are using it, abusing it, screwing it up or getting it perfectly right. Yep, you guessed it, it's a mixed bag of emotions and dissent. Enjoy the conversation... Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast - Episode #260 - Host: Mitch Joel.

Welcome to episode #259 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. What is creativity? Are some people more creative than others? Can you force creativity? Is there a technique that can make you more creative? Is it possible to always be creative at work? Does the best creativity happen when you're on a forced deadline or does creativity take time? These are the mysterious questions than many of us in Marketing have (I know I do). Thankfully, there are people like Todd Henry to help us dig in and find some answers. Todd is the author of the forthcoming business book, The Accidental Creative - How To Brilliant On A Moment's Notice. He also has a Blog by the same name. In this episode, we tackle these questions and many others. If you're a creative (and who isn't?), please take a listen. Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #257 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. When will the Marketing Dinosaurs die? When will those who hold the keys to marketing power truly start shifting their ways to not only embrace these new Digital Marketing channels, but to use them to unleash the most power form of Marketing that has ever been created?

Welcome to episode #255 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. Saul Colt (also known as the smartest man in the world) e-introduced me to Jim Hopkinson a few years back (in fact, it was just prior to the launch of my business book, Six Pixels of Separation). Hopkinson is one of the marketing people for Wired Magazine and has a Podcast called, The Hopkinson Report. Over the course of his professional career he became the de facto source for advice on how to negotiate a better salary. Recently, he released his first business book, The Salary Tutor - Learn The Salary Negotiation Secrets No One Ever Taught You. In this fascinating conversation, you'll realize how little energy, practice and thought you put into one of the most important moments of your life. Thanks to Saul, Jim and I have become good friends over the past few years and have had the pleasure of hanging out both online and in-person. Enjoy the conversation...
