STOP SPAMMING ME FOR YOUR SERVICES EVERY TIME I SEND OUT A PRESS RELEASE ON EITHER BUSINESS WIRE OR PR NEWSWIRE.
Thank you.

Easiest way to tell when a company goes from "small and fun" to "major and corporate?"
When I was at AOL, it was when they stopped providing free beer trucks on Friday afternoons in the parking lot.

Got this email from someone named Tami Queen at Vocus. In essence, she’s telling me how to make sure I don’t spam bloggers when pitching them.

I got to do a little experimenting today, along with a little math. (shudder.)

Ouch.
Any logical benefit of the doubt HAS to say that this is […]
Carrol (note two "r’s", my apologies for missing that in the original post) wrote me a note regarding my posting about her "Unless he’s coming out of a coma" media release of last week.
Peter, loved the blurb and pitch tip on my press release BUT have to differ and so would the press who showed […]
Peter’s rule of pitching #3: Unless you’ve just woken up from a fifteen-year coma and can tell us who killed Kennedy, a press release announcing that you’re going to speak is NOT NEWS. We clear on that, Carol?

According to BrandRepublic (and a bunch of others) Edelman PR issued a public apology for not disclosing that a blog called www.walmartingacrossamerica.com, about two people in an RV sleeping in Wal-Mart parking lots, was in fact, underwritten by Working Families for Wal-Mart, a group back by (shock) Wal-Mart, designed to portray a positive image of […]
