The Great, The Bad, and The Ugly

Every day, you are exposed to thousands of marketing messages. Some of them are good, some of them are great, and some of them are downright ugly. Which ones made an impression on you? Comment here, telling us whether it was great, bad, or ugly.

My first Blog post

Hi. Well, welcome to Les Stern's Marketing Musings. I have been a marketeer (no, that is not a typo) since 1982. I started my own marketing company, L. Stern & Associates, in August 1999, so we just celebrated 11 years (woo woo). We do all sorts of great strategic and tactical marketing things for clients big and small. But check out http://www.lsternmktg.com/ for more about that.

So, back to the question, what will you find on this blog?

1. My thoughts on marketing "stuff" going on in the real world.
2. Links to marketing "stuff" I think is of interest and cool.
3. Occasionally, some shamelessly self-promoting drivel about the work I have done for clients.
4. Occasionally, some thoughts on issues of the day, especially healthcare, which I find fascinating

I also want you to post here and share your thoughts. The only rules when you post here:

1. Keep it clean
2. Don't make it personal

Welcome again.

Les
