Joel Comm Drops My Name Into His Live Show

As you can see in the video below at the 46:53 mark, Joel Comm dropped my name into his live show this afternoon. Looks like I've finally stepped into the big time of Internet marketing!

Ok, so I only get a mention for knowing that Zoolander made the Blue Steel look famous - but hey, everybody's gotta start somewhere!

You can check out the archived video of the live show below or here if the embed doesn't work. Joel Comm does a live show every Wednesday at 1 PM EST. You can visit Ustream.tv or http://joelcomm.com/live.html to catch the show.

Who knows, you might just win a book like me!

Automated Voice Answering Services - They Suck

Business Voice Answering Services SuckSeth Godin made a post yesterday about his frustrations dealing with Verizon's voice routing system and one point really hit home with me. Why do these voice answering services ask you to punch in your phone number, only to ask you for it again once you get through to a live person?

What a waste of time. The idea of voice routing is to save time and save money by automating some of the steps. If you don't use that information, you're wasting your time as well as your customer's time.

Just another example of how things fall through the cracks.
