Not lazy just incredibly busy

So months ago I said I was going to redesign my site and to "keep a look out" for it. Well work and music has prevented that from happening. I've been very very busy at .Com Marketing that past few months, up until recently that is. I actually was able to hire a team member, his name is Matt Caron and he is my saving grace.

As for the band, we're just super busy with playing shows, recording and promoting. We have a manager now and her name is Michelle Morris, who previously worked with Pulse Nein and others. Also we're working on a 5 song ep with Brett Hestla (Singer/Dark New Day) that we will be releasing this fall. To hear some of our music click on one of the following URL's.

That's all for now.

New Site Coming Soon...

So I think it's about time to update this site, plus I don't think it's very unorganized. Well work has been keeping me pretty busy, and not that that's a bad thing but I'm really bogged down. Hopefully soon they'll let me hire some help.

But on an awesome note I finally got my hands on a Nintendo Wii a couple weeks ago and one word comes to mind; AMAZING. Everyone should own one of these and you can download old school Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Turbo Graffix 16 and Sega Genesis games. All in all it's the best thing ever.

Well keep a look out for the new site and new items for the portfolio and just me ranting about nonsense, well cause this is my blog and I can. Until then...

New Work

So after months of working at .Com Marketing and numerous projects I finally found some time to update my website. I have updated my portfolio and my resume. Please feel free to view both:

My Portfolio
My Resume

So a lot has been happening recently with me. My portfolio is growing as is my work load. I've learned how to integrate booking engines for hotel websites also got involved in email marketing. Interactive marketing agencies are awesome for letting you expand your knowledge. So enough babbling for now. I promise I will start updating this blog more often. Until then...Cheers!

Missed Marketing - Mobile Spam

So I read a post on Adverblog today talking about Missed Call Marketing. Apparently mobile marketers have found a way to "SPAM" your phone by calling letting it ring once then hang up. Now what was said in the article is that by hanging up after one ring most people will call back based off of curiosity, worry etc. and will receive an automated promotion. I know this is bad because it is technically spam but at the same time it's completely genius.

New Job

So I know it's been a while since I last posted but a lot has happened since then. I recently left MindComet and am now the Creative Development Manager for .Com Marketing. This was an amazing opportunity that I couldn't pass up. So as time goes on I will be posting to this blog more frequently (hopefully) and keep you all up to date on me and new technologies I'm discovering. But for right now everyone should go to Linked In and create a profile. Linked In is essentially the myspace but for professionals. If you create an account definitely look for me.

Blog Optimization

So while at work today my buddy Andy sent me a link to a very interesting article. It pertains to Blog Optimization, how to compete with a flooded market and ultimately how can I make some money. With blogger recently implementing Google's AdSense functionality it seems like everyone is jumping on the affiliate marketing band wagon. Nonetheless it is a very interesting read. Give it a go.
