Just the other day, a friend Andrew tagged me to write 8 secrets about me. Then now, I get tagged by Gage Master… Wow… how do you say no to a friend and a lady?
I really do not have 8 secrets to reveal. Nor are there 8 things to talk about me. This is because I am a very nondescript kind of guy. But more importantly, it is because the work I do is so much more interesting! So, here are 8 things about me and marketing that most people do not know:
1. I took my basic degree in Business Administration because that was the only course in the University that had the least number of “hours”. (Great advise here for you students!)
2. I accidentally ended up with a marketing major because with 4 core marketing modules, I only had to study one thing! (Another great “secret” for you kids!)
3. I always wanted to be in films, but the starting pay was really bad…
4. I worked in advertising for many years, but the only models I worked with could not speak, move or strut. (sigh…)
5. My marketing ideas are usually so crazy my bosses put a danger sign around my neck, but fortunately, enough of them work out that I still got my promotions.
6. When I do marketing, I like to learn as much about the product or service as I can. Unfortunately, this led me to become some kind of “techie” and side-tracked my marketing career!
7. To me, Marketing is a little bit like taking a dump (don’t hang up on me!), it takes effort, but if there were no substance in the first place, nothing comes out.
8. To me, writing 8 things is too difficult for my small little mind, but finding 8 others to tag, now that really kills me.
