Hello everyone, my name is John Wall and this is where I write about Marketing and whatever else I find interesting (your mileage may vary). I also have a weekly podcast called The M Show which is great for your commute to work (or even if you don't commute). You can also listen to Marketing Over Coffee, a podcast I do with Christopher Penn. BTW, I don't look this good, I have a great photographer. I can be reached at: john at themshow dot com

Sports Marketing

Sports marketing is a interesting niche, if you are into it, the AMA Boston has an event with a completely kick-ass panel coming up. The panelists work with the Red Sox, Patriots and Bruins, as well as reps from Dunkin’ Donuts, EMC and Jordan’s Furniture (they are again offering free furniture if the Sox sweep […]

My Name is John

I’m off to an event called Blogger Social the first weekend in April down in New York City. It’s a bunch of Marketing Bloggers getting together just to talk and have some fun. One thing that has made this event special even prior to kickoff is that Steve Woodruff has been assembling profiles of the […]

Company Goals

Johnny T. (who, by the way, works for a company that produces some great events (even if some of his customers are trying to kill me, but that’s a story for another day)) had written in about trade shows last week and I wanted to get to the second part of his question: Are the […]

The Show Must Go On

I won’t have a whole lot to post for the next couple of days, I’m at the SDWest Conference is Santa Clara, CA. It’s the cutting edge of Software Development and is actually a show with an insane number of sessions and an expo floor with tons of development tools. Unfortunately, as great as the […]

Questions from the Street

As part of the ooVoo project Charlie had a few questions that we weren’t able to get around to, but they were great so I wanted to throw them (and my two cents, of course) out there…
Where the Big 3 are wasting their marketing dollars (Or teaching Goliath new tricks).
It’s not as much wasting dollars […]

Netflix goes with Blu-Ray

This just came in, I never saw this coming…
We’re Going Blu-ray
Dear J-Funk,
You’re receiving this email because you have asked to receive high-definition movies in the HD DVD format. As you may have heard, most of the major movie studios have recently decided to release their high-definition movies exclusively in the Blu-ray format. In order to […]

The 4 Types of Networking Event Attendees

So tomorrow I am going to a meeting of the Boston Chapter of the American Marketing Association. It’s an informal event that will have a discussion on The Impact of Social Media. I’ve been to one other event with this group and it made me take some time to think about networking events and how […]

AMA Boston Tonight

I’ll be at the AMA Boston meeting this evening. Registration is closed but if you are in the vicinity of Vlora perhaps you can still get into the bar and some of the later discussions.

Best of 2007

As I start my “Year in Review” process, there are some things that I wanted to take note of things I’ve found this year that I’m thankful for. I give you: The Ronis!
Best Blog - Curt Schilling’s 38 Pitches is the coolest thing in baseball. Real-time in-depth commentary from a guy in the game. Check […]

Blogs are Crap, Twitter is Worse

Looking back on 2007 I think the best person I met was Chip Griffin. He’s doing some cool stuff and is a real entrepreneur.
He just posted talking about Snack Media and I think he’s being far too polite. I think there’s been way too much hype over the past 5 years about the acceleration of […]
