These last few posts have applied the Eightfold Path of Buddhism to marketing. This all got started because I grew sick of reading marketing information that was full of hyperbole and was not concerned with anything other than making more money for the auther… at any cost. I also realized that my own website had become the same way, influenced no doubt by all the material I was reading and absorbing. Enough was enough.
I kept the posts relatively short for a couple of reasons. One, we are all in different situations that require different patterns of thought and we need to apply this way of thinking to our own unique situations. Two, this whole process is still relatively new to me and I do not have a lot of experience to draw upon. As I learn and experience more, I will share it with you. As I go back to talking about other marketing subjects, I will keep in mind the philosophy behind right marketing, sometimes applying it directly and sometimes just experiencing its influence.
One more note. I want this to be a website where you come to get useful information, not just interesting philosophy. I will also keep that in mind as I continue to provide you with quality posts.

Hi Chris,
This has been a great series! It has also been very exciting to me to see the transitions you have been going through … and I am sure will continue - I love it!!
Usually I post shortish because I also prefer to read shortish most of the time. Thank you!! And I am eager to see what you come up with next!

Makes me want to sing… “mama’s little children love shortish bread…”
Sorry. Had to do it. It’s late and I’m in a goofy, over-tired mood.
