Matt Dickman: Techno Marketer

March 20th, 2008  |  events, web marketing  |  1 Comment

Have I mentioned that I am LOVING the Conversations About the Future of Advertising series? On deck this week was Matt Dickman, blogger and director of Digital Marketing for Fleishman-Hillard. His blog, Techno//Marketer is outstanding and is listed as one of the Advertising Age’s top 150 marketing blogs.

He had some great insights into “micromedia” especially Twitter. I have to admit that I gained a much greater understanding of this micro-blogging platform and the various ways it can distribute content. I’m embarrased to admit that I’ve been on the fence for some time about whether to sign up but Dickman presented a really compelling argument for using it. The example, successful and tragic, of businesses on Twitter were really eye opening.

Another point that stayed with me was about using the same photo across all your social networks to better establish your personal brand (see his example above). I already do this, but only because I’m not a big fan of my self portraits. I think I’ll adopt his reasoning, it makes me sound smarter.

Listen to the podcast or the the slides with audio commentary.

Thanks for the kind words Mykl. I’m sorry that I am just now seeing this post. A Google Alert just came in for it. I definitely have to give Tim Brunelle lots of credit for putting such a great series together.
