Does Twitter not have a sense of humor? Lighten up.

Re: iPhone May Leave AT&T Exclusivity Wednesday [Rumor]

TalkDebbie — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 07:17:41 -0000

I like AT&T because it is the only carrier that provides service to Lake Wateree, SC, which is a bit remote. Necessary for me since I operate a satellite office there. Ironic that Verizon's entire sales pitch is coverage area, but AT&T provides it where I need it.

Re: Pink Chicks on Parade at The Forum Shops!

TalkDebbie — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 21:27:33 -0000

Hi Susan. Many thanks for your comment. Our intent was certainly not to offend, but to call attention to a very serious disease and to raise money for the Pink Ribbon Project. The "buy a chick, save a life" slogan is to emphasize that for $125, the cost of the Pink Chick, you can pay for a mammogram for an uninsured or underinsured woman served by the Pink Ribbon Project. We hope to make this a successful annual fundraiser and welcome all ideas on how to make it better each year.
All the best,
Debbie

too cute. There's nothing better than a cat and a box. Amazing how something three times the size of the box can end up fitting in it so perfectly! Thanks for sharing.

Hi Alex. LOVE the wine labels. Shawn, our graphic designer, had a great experience working with Blake. Please wish him well from all of us at Talk. I had the personalized wine done for my family reunion next week. I can't wait to see everyone's reaction! Keep up the great work. You've got a happy and grateful customer in Talk.

Great post Brittany. It's hard to believe right now, but you'll look back at this first summer after graduation as a fun adventure. Take time to enjoy yourself and relax at the beach. The real world will intrude soon enough. Glad to have you on the Talk team!

Hi William. I'm glad you enjoy "Things We Love." Re the webinar, you can download the slides here on the blog. Check out yesterday's posting - it has link to download. We don't have a recording after all. Technical difficulties unfortunately. Next webinar will be recorded. Check back here early next week for schedule of upcoming webinars.

Re: Calling all goats

TalkDebbie — Sun, 15 Mar 2009 22:36:43 -0000

Yes, I did say that. And yes, I want a goat. I think I have plenty of room in the office to accommodate a goat and I'm sure Camden would welcome the company. And think of all the electricity we could save by never having to use the shredder again? We could just give all our documents to the goat.

Re: Stop Saying PR is Public Relations

TalkDebbie — Sat, 14 Mar 2009 20:28:35 -0000

I don't necessarily disagree with the essence of your argument, but don't see this as being such a distinction that it merits a name change. I agree with Lisa's comment above - let's not make our already misunderstood profession any more difficult to understand. But many thanks for an interesting discussion!

Re: Stop Saying PR is Public Relations

TalkDebbie — Thu, 12 Mar 2009 10:57:01 -0000

I think you're splitting hairs here. If professional practitioners don't understand that the "public" is comprised of "people," they should find another profession -- quick!

Thanks for the goodreads.com tip. I'll check it out. Plain & Simple is only 88 pages. Hazen has built quite a business with Prime Visibility so I was curious to see what he had to say. Really appreciate you checking out our blog. Stay in touch.

Re: louisgray.com: How Can You Teach Intellectual Curiosity?

TalkDebbie — Tue, 24 Feb 2009 07:01:56 -0000

Louis - thank you for a wonderful post. One of the core values at our firm is curiosity. I'm always shocked that people choose to make a career in our industry and lack what I think is a fundamental component of marketing - curiosity. How can I know an employee will go the extra mile if they don't have it? I can't teach it. It's inborn. So I try my best during the interview process to ferret it out, measure it and see if they have enough to succeed.
