A Note to Readers
from Ann Handley
Chief Content Officer

The Art of Being Human

I'm not looking at you... but some marketers are so caught up juggling their meta tags, optimizing for mobile, and staring at analytics numbers that they forget that they're talking to real, live human beings with actual blood pumping through actual veins.

You know what else they forget? They forget that every single time a customer deals with their brand, product or company, it's a marketing experience. Maybe a good one, maybe a lousy one. But, for sure, you're either pulling them in or pushing them away with every interaction.

If you'd opt for the former (the "pulling them in" part), don't miss this week's seminar, which also sports the best title ever: Corporateblahbidiblah Detox: Grow Your Business by Communicating in Human.

You will learn the mystical secrets of marketing to actual human beings; how to make every interaction with your prospects, customers, and website visitors more human, which magically drives sales and builds loyalty.

Seriously. Be there. (And don't invite Legal.)
