In my experience, award-winning ad people are accustomed to working with large budgets. As such, most of them do not get entrepreneurial marketing. Henry Wong is an exception. Here is a podcast of a recent conversation we had. #entrepreneurship... vyoobrand.com

Sometimes, being a talented independent musician is not enough. You have to be entrepreneurial as well! Rich Aucoin is a good Canadian example! youtube.com/watch?v=xkuWgX… youtube.com/watch?v=xkuWgX…

While, Maasai warriors have preserved their culture, in my observation, they have also mastered The Experience Economy. #authenticitysells

One of my students, who had to undergo unexpected surgery, showed me that "adversity introduces a man to himself." He didn't let adversity get in his way; in fact, he worked hard and excelled in spite of it. #WhatILearnedFromMyStudents

"When you move to a new country, find yourself a cultural coach." A clever Korean lady quickly befriended a smart, local female student who became her de facto cultural coach. I bet she'll have a much easier time adjusting in Canada & succeeding! #ThingsILearnedFromMyStudents

Stereotypes are common everywhere. A student from Chechnya, a place that some consider violent, earned a lot of respect — in one semester! She displayed no flag-waving, protesting or chanting. Just tenacity, congeniality, collaboration & good humour #ThingsILearnFromMyStudents

Ad age calls it "brilliant." Fast Company calls it "masterclass." The late Jay Conrad Levinson would call it Guerrilla Marketing. True, true, true. bit.ly/2vQUgSr bit.ly/2vQUgSr
