I had always wondered if all marketing blogs were written by agency people, until I came across The M20: Top Marketer Blogs.

The M20 — maintained by Peter Kim — is a list of the top ranked blogs written by client-side marketers.

Apart from maintaining a list of the top twenty blogs, Peter also does regular profiles of client-side marketers who blog. Here’s mine.

Conversation Age E-Book: Create Conversations, Not Clutter

The ‘Conversation Age’ e-book is a collaborative e-book project conceived by Drew Mclellan and Gavin Heaton -

- 100 authors. We’re a few but need more.
- The overriding topic is “The Conversation Age” — where you take it is up to you.
- The items are short - one 8.5″ x 11″ page — it can be words, diagrams, photos (again up to you) If it is words - about 400, give or take a couple.
- We write it quickly and get it out there. We publish electronically.
- We make it available online for a small fee and we donate 100% of the proceeds to Variety the Children’s Charity — which serves children across the entire globe.

My contribution to the e-book is a chapter titled ‘Create Conversations, Not Clutter’. Here’s a teaser excerpt from the chapter -

While all of us agree that we need to create conversations with our customers/ readers and build a community around them, most of us end up creating clutter instead of conversations. In this article, I will share with you my thoughts on creating conversations, not clutter.

For the rest of the chapter, you’ll have to wait for the e-book. :-)
