Advertise Yourself on the Internet Like This?

In: Internet Marketing

17 Oct 2009

I randomly found this on Craigslist and it is just too funny not to share. This is a good example of how you shouldn’t market on the Internet, or Indiana social media sites, but at the same time it’s avoiding a lot of potential messy clients. His customers know what they’re going to get and […]

What To Do About the “United Breaks Guitars” Video

In: Internet Marketing

7 Jul 2009

I just watched the brand new “United Breaks Guitars” video thanks to a tweet from @cassi_hl. The song and video are funny and well done, but it got me thinking about bad publicity on the Internet and what to do about it. The video is about four minutes long, but I thought it was worth it. Heck, it will probably take […]

Kevin Hood is Going to Beat That Other Kevin Hood on Google

In: Local Internet Marketing|SEO

11 Jun 2009

Kevin Hood is on a mission. That’s right, I said Kevin Hood. I must pronounce the word “Hood” with a weird accent, because most of the time that I say my name, people ask me to repeat my last name. I have learned to answer the question with “like Robin Hood,” which usually gets a […]

Marketing a Band or Business Isn’t What it Used to Be

In: Internet Marketing|Marketing

9 Jun 2009

I can remember it like it was just yesterday. Designing a flyer in Corel Draw, taking it to the local print shop to get hundreds of copies, and then plastering them all over the campus of Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. Who could forget the long trips to Bloomington, Indiana just to hang flyers […]

Email Marketing Mistakes Part Deux

In: Email Marketing

22 May 2009

In my last email marketing post, I highlighted several email mistakes that companies can make. I ran into my newspaper reporter friend tonight and his story inspired me to write part two: Email Marketing – The Emails Strike Back. A long time ago (meaning tonight), in an establishment not far away, I listened to the reporter’s story. We’ll call him […]

Email Marketing Mistakes and Nightmares

In: Email Marketing

15 May 2009

Email marketing can be done the right way, it can be done the wrong way, or it can be just awful and damage the reputation of a business. Yesterday, I received an email from a social media company. The email wasn’t addressed to me, but some guy named Dominic. They tried to be personal with their email marketing efforts, but […]

Internet Marketing and the Power of Suspense

In: Internet Marketing

8 May 2009

Whether you are devising an Internet Marketing plan, designing or improving a website, using email marketing, social media, or blogging . . . you have to use suspense. For some reason, whenever I think of the word “suspense” my first thought is of Bob Barker from The Price is Right. Bob Barker is the master of the […]

My Social Media Experience with Businesses

In: Internet Marketing|Social Media

6 Apr 2009

The lightening quick progress that large corporations have made with marketing and customer service on social media websites is very interesting to watch. I started a website for our neighborhood in Fishers, Indiana. Looking for content to add to the website, I heard there were recent complaints and problems with Comcast cable television during a […]

My First Day at Fusework Studios

In: Internet Marketing

1 Apr 2009

The first day is over and I still have a job, so it was good. No seriously folks, (crowd gets quiet) my first day at Fusework Studios was great. The morning was spent getting acquainted to the office, new co-workers, computer and internal systems, and a brief look at Compendium Blogware. As a longtime blogger with […]
