  • PODCASTING: Why Do We Do It?

    There are lots of people out there marketing themselves through sharing their knowledge in the form of podcasting.

    Do you do podcast? Why? Anything you'd like to share with the rest of us that you have experienced whether observing shows or being directly involved in them?

    I am part of one called The Brent and Brandi Show. Brent and I talk about everything! Some of the recent topics were Wordpress, SEO and consulting services. We have invited a good deal of Bizniks onto the show and plan to keep this up. We just started this cast a month ago, so our listener numbers aren't up where we want them yet, but the show is really something else -- we both enjoy talking so... haha! It's a lot of work, which makes the whole thing very rewarding when we get to listen to the final product. If you'd like to be on the show, feel free to email us at hello@thebrentandbrandishow.com

    Side note: Brent, if you are around this post.. say something. ;)

  • YOUR PITCH: Introduce Yourself

    Why should I care? Will this make the front page and help me look good [as a reporter]?

    That is the question most reporters and other figures who make the limelight ask themselves when presented with a pitch.

    This is the perfect sandbox to find out if you can pitch yourself well. Feel free to pitch and critique -- Let's brainstorm some great PR!

  • Got Brand?

    A lot of startups tend to neglect consistent, professional message performance in the form of branding. They usually feel that the -/+ $5k isn't worth spending. In most designers opinions and our clients this just isn't the right mindset, as we have seen the incredible ROI involved with proper branding and marketing of those brands.

    I'm here to try to answer any questions you may have about the expense, usefulness, perceived value and return involved with creating an identity.logo.mark and associated collateral. And any other questions that may arise in the process.

  • Color! What a concept. =)

    Hi everyone. I have been so busy doing BizNiky things that I just realized I never posted to this thread.

    I'm excited about BizNik and you will probably hear me say that a good deal in the future as well.

    Heading an independent design firm (we do it all!) has its many limitations including not getting out from behind the computer for months -- save grocery shopping, which can now be done online, too! =p

    I'm looking forward to meeting everyone I can. As soon as business slows down a bit -- hopefully not too soon though =) -- my goal will be to attend at least 1 event each week.

    Feel free to give me a call, shoot me an email (Brandi@aShadow.com), &/or check out my site for the awesome eye candy (www.aShadow.com).

    Cheers! =)

    Brandi
