New Media Marketing Consulting

In further defining and developing our brand I got to thinking about my title. Marketing Director. Sounded good back in the day. The thing is, I’m not just the Marketing Director for Core Zero Creative. I wear that hat for many of the companies we work with, whether here in Maine or elsewhere around the globe, and whether it’s website design and development, social media marketing strategy, or search engine optimization, these are all services that Core Zero Creative offers. What we do is New Media Marketing Consulting. That’s much more accurate. It involves coordinating a company’s website, brand, social media, and search engine optimization efforts so that they work together in harmony.

Yes, that’s a challenge.

I have made a commitment to blog more often. One reason, of course, is for all the reasons we’ve been telling you to start or be actively blogging… become a trusted resource on your industry, it’s great SEO (Search Engine Optimization), develop a conversation around your industry, product or service, cause, or personality. To be honest I have many of the same limiting beliefs as most of you. What do I write about and who actually wants to read what I have to say. Well, I guess we’ll find out! I know what you’re thinking “but you give hands-on workshops on blogging“? The brains and brawn of that division of Core Zero is Eric. He is an absolutely beautiful writer and speaker. Listen, I know my strengths and I am all too aware of my weaknesses but I am teachable. And so are you which is the point of this experiment. You know how much we love our experiments!

First, I will tell you what my qualifications are so that you will want to follow EVERYTHING I have to say… there are none! Well, mostly none, but that is exactly why you are going to want to follow my blog posts.
