actionable marketing guide
Dear , Today is a holiday in the US where we celebrate the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King
Jr. (January 15, 1929 – April 4, 1968). It’s a time to reflect on a man whose words moved people to act peacefully to achieve a goal that was greater than anything one person could do alone. Most notably he inspired us to work together to change the world with his I have a dream speech. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up, live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.” ![]() Although we still have a long way to go in the US and elsewhere, King set us on a path to a better future for
everyone. While I’m on the topic of the future, I’d like to know what topics you’d like to see the Actionable Marketing Guide cover going forward? Please respond to this
email with your thoughts. Additionally, as I mentioned last week, I’m speaking at Social Media Marketing World 2016 (SMMW 2016) in San Diego on April 17-19th. I’m creating fresh new content that reveals my secret tips for cranking out amazing content on a regular
basis. Last year, I went to Social Media Marketing World 2015 as an attendee. I paid for the conference and travel on my own dime. It was worth the investment even though I attended very few of the sessions. Instead I spent my time networking. At SMMW 2015, I met and talked with marketers and influencers from around the world. Many of whom I only knew virtually through social media. While these relationships didn’t result
in a direct ROI, I didn’t come home with leads or sales. I laid the foundation for deepening relationships that will help my business for the long term. To encourage you to join me at Social Media Marketing World 2016, I’m offering to meet with the first 10 people who register and
attend the conference through my SMMW affiliate link. It’ll be your opportunity to AMA about marketing!!! (Please understand that I believe that my personal life is, well, personal.) This book is a guide to the important conversations your salespeople must have to articulate value to your customers. We'll announce the winner of the giveaway in next week's newsletter. For some insight, read Heidi Cohen's interview with author Tim Riesterer on the Actionable Marketing Guide. Happy marketing, Heidi Heidi Cohen Actionable Marketing Guide P.S: If you enjoy reading this email newsletter, perhaps there’s a friend or colleague that you’d like to recommend us to?
