Online Marketing for Broke Start-Ups
I am saved from the pressure of having to come up with a blog post today by the fact that I’ve very cleverly already written one – a guest post over at Joe Scanlon’s place called Five Things You Should Know About Online Marketing for Broke Start-Ups.
Technically, it went up five days ago. I didn’t notice because I spent all of last week distracted by a jaw-droppingly overwhelming work load and being convinced I was going to die of cancer. (I’m not, as it turns out, so that’s a bonus.)
Anyway, when Joe approached me to do a Five Things, he suggested something about design and I said I’d get back to him with something else. I love design – I love seeing it, I love reading about it, I love hearing about it and I love doing it, but I am completely inarticulate when it comes to writing or talking about it.
I can talk about internet marketing all day, though. I’ve been doing a lot of it lately, and having a great time – mostly thanks to my personal AdWords guru, Dave at Redfly, who in addition to being outrageously good looking, has been very generous with his time in sorting out my dyslexic thrashings through the terribly confusing AdWords user interface.
I totally love him, and the AdWords dashboard is officially my new crack pipe.

Ahhh, I nearly wet myself! Never been called “outrageously good looking”. Come to think of it, we’ve never met so I’ll let you live in your fantasy land for a little longer :) Thanks for the mention but it was really nothing.
Your article was great. The part about rewarding early adopters is so often overlooked.
Drop me a mail, I have something for you.

27.01.2009, 11:25 amHe *is* outrageously good looking isn’t he. I was going to email you about him… but as you’ve already said it so publically I can do nothing but agree heartily.
:-)
27.01.2009, 1:28 pmTara, I agree.
“Dave Davis: #1 Google result for Irish Totty” is my new goal for 2009.
Let me feed your addiction ;-)

My 5 things passed me by as well. I think Joe does this on purpose although I can’t imagine why.
The cancer thing, I think it’s a combination of being female and working all day on a computer – I’ve had it as well, next up is Alzeimers – you mark my words!
