At the end\/beginning of a year, some bloggers like to publish a "Best Of" post of the favorite\/most popular posts from the previous year.<\/p>\n
I am not going to do that.<\/strong> <\/p>\n Sure, it’s an easy post to write, and probably something of an ego-boost, that you can have a "Top Ten" list. But something of a cop-out too, Ithink. If you have past material that you’d like to revisit, by all means do so, but add something new to the conversation as you do. Don’t just give us a list. <\/p>\n Instead, my year end posts are going to touch on some areas of the marketing plan that I haven’t written much about in the past year. Advertising, trade shows, discounts, channel marketing. I’m sure I’ll touch on my fave topics of PR, direct mail, integrating sales & marketing and blogging as well, but I thought it’d be a nice change of pace. Expect the first posts early next week. <\/p>\n In the meantime, later today I’ll be wrapping up a few other random bits from the past month’s accumulated bloglines.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" At the end\/beginning of a year, some bloggers like to publish a "Best Of" post of the favorite\/most popular posts from the previous year.
