Everybody walks past a thousand story ideas every day. The good writers are the ones who see five or six of them. Most people don't see any.

Comment preview: I just gave you a follow but if I can make a suggestion, I would talk to a marketing agency about your branding/public image. You are trying to create a very high-end brand and your social media should reflect that. I would nix the videos of you and your ....


Comment preview: I think Blue Ocean is at work here. Rather than say "objective camera quality is the primary value in the market for cameras", and thus extrapolating "a camera of inferior quality is not valuable in the market", a 'market based value' would be, 'what best ....


Comment preview: It's because of all those Steam users, very few actually buy AAA games. Most play F2P games. It's just the nature of a service that is free to sign up for. Video game companies aren't stupid. They have people whose sole job it is is to see how much profit ....


Comment preview: I'm a marketing professional and the first rule of marketing goods of primarily percieved value (as opposed to stuff like toilet paper) is: never compete on price. Repeat after me: never compete on price. I just took a look at your site and your paintings ....


Comment preview: Regardless of Marshawn (and whether or not you think he s being childish, unprofessional or whatever), one thing is becoming increasingly clear. Members of the media have an over-inflated sense of self-importance. I can t emphasize this enough. I used to b ....


Comment preview: I'm going to throw my hat in the ring here. Contact me through message or ken.hanson04 [at] gmail [dot] com. The short version of my experience is that I've spent 10 years in the industry. I've been a professional UX / Visual Designer for 7+ years, a front ....


Comment preview: N-Control isn't blameless in all of this. From: http://kotaku.com/5871400/cut-paul-oceanmarketting-christoforo-a-breakhe-probably-just-has-roid-rage This was after Paul tried to respond to an email from Kotaku pretending he was Brandon Leidel (From the Mar ....


Comment preview: For a potential marketing professional, it's also shitty: * There's no call to action of any kind, and even his contact info is only for questions or concerns; ~~* Copywriting appears twice in the "skills" list;~~ (as /u/what_do_u_even_mean points out, I ....


Comment preview: Sorry for the downvote somebody gave you. This is a reasonable request. Edit: Shit. Wrong link. It was the Kotaku article. Let me find it... Edit 2: Hi Joel, I have been following this story since this morning when someone notified me about what was going ....


Comment preview: Hi, college marketing professional here on a throw away account because I like getting a regular paycheck. I don't work for Fordham, and I don't know for a fact how they roll. Maybe they're dealing straight up -- that'd be pretty cool. But that FA figure ....


Comment preview: I work in HR. This resume to me says that this guy made 100 of them and is sending them out to every single place he can. I'd much rather see a resume that showed they were interested in my company and did their research than this. Plus, no experience list ....


Comment preview: Hey dude, first off I want to say I think you're pretty funny, and I do follow you on Twitter, so this unsolicited advice is coming from a fan. I'm a marketing professional, and I often see in your reddit posts that you're trying to increase your fan base ....


Comment preview: I will defend Tony Romo as a good to very good QB every day of the week. First and foremost, the guy has the intangibles. He has that charm and confidence you want from your QB. He's a leader of men. He has good arm strength and good arm accuracy and there ....


Comment preview: I was thinking we needed to not blame N-Control too but after reading the response from the old PR guy (Not Paul, but the actual real PR firm they had before The HAND Media, INC) it seems like N-Control had plenty of warning and knew what they were doing. ....


Comment preview: Mobile videogames are literally designed with the intention of not being fun. "Fun" is less profitable than "frustrating and addictive" when in-application microtransactions are the primary monetization mechanic. The development of console (and computer) g ....


Comment preview: I'm doing Computer Engineering which means I get the 'best' of both worlds! It's pretty much Software Engineering + Electrical Engineering. My CS classes are mostly full of CS majors and to me it seems like that major is easier just because it focuses on o ....


Comment preview: My Father was one of the 4 founders of Finial Technology the developers of the first laser turntable. Id be happy to ask him any questions about this technology and its history. The first working model, the Finial LT-1 (Laser Turntable-1), was completed in ....


Comment preview: yes I do. I should point out there is a difference between pride parades and things like the folsom street fair. The reason why the LGBT community has made so much progress in the last few decades is that people started realizing that they were members of ....


Comment preview: a few fold here. First, academic programs are increasingly out of touch with what the job market and professional landscape look like. Because of this, curriculums are less and less applicable to the jobs they claim to prepare you for. What a professiona ....


Comment preview: Last night, The Daily Show had a segment on the mounting cost and student loan debt of Higher Education. http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/thu-may-9-2013/stay-out-of-school It reflects some harsh truths that college might not be for everyone, at least not ....


Comment preview: Dentist here. Most patients have a reasonable idea of their dental status prior to going to the dentist. If you have had regular dental care, it is unlikely you'll have lots of work to do. Look at your teeth-are there holes, missing teeth, broken off chun ....


Comment preview: Clarification - These images are ONLY appearing for branded searches currently. Meaning that if someone searches for "Virgin America Airlines", or "Southwest Airlines", Google knows that there is a 99% chance the searcher would like to find the actual Virg ....


Comment preview: When I was out of work I did a similar job for a week and a half just to get out of the house. We had our morning pump up, and even used J.U.I.C.E. every other word like you said. And yeah... it was cultish. I quite after two experiences: My trainer (19 yo ....


Comment preview: On the whole this appears to be what's known technically (and I am a marketing professional) as "bullshit." It wasn't that people marketing these substances knew what they were saying was untrue, more that they didn't know either way. By the time of heroin ....


Comment preview: I don't believe that anyone really has a problem with India as a country, nor do they have a problem with Indians as people, but: As already pointed out, India has positioned itself to compete with American programmers. This isn't simply coincidence, high ....
