I should probably put up a bunch of logos you'd recognize, clients for whom I've done work. There'd be some cool ones like Hilton, Gateway, Bass Pro Shops, Starwood and Tri-County Mufflers and Brakes. And there'd be a few you don't recognize.

 

I should probably talk about how I can write just about anything and list the things I've written. There'd be fun stuff like ads and commercials, headlines and taglines. There'd be practical stuff like SEO copy, speeches, press releases, manuals, emails and extensive web copy. There'd be useless stuff like unpublished lyrics and novels. And there'd be about 2,000 lost-in-the-ether blog posts, articles, reviews and rants.

 

I should explain how I can provide voiceover so convincing, I could get the devil to accept Jesus.

 

I should hang out a shingle that declares I am a social media strategist, but that would be one more shingle in a sea of shingles, and no one with a better clue than the next as to what's coming down the pike and what's destined for tomorrow's scrap yard. Here's some free social media advice: be on all the platforms you want, keep them updated, monitor talk of your brand and respond when you deem necessary. You can probably get an intern to do that, or your 14-year-old daughter. There ya go. You're welcome.

 

I should list the movers and shakers I've moved or shaken, and I should drop names like Bono, the Pope, Presidents Bush and Obama, but then I'd be lying.

 

I can write and "strategize" with the best of them, but I'd prefer not to lie. That's the deal with marketing and advertising. You shouldn't lie. If we work together, let's create stuff that is real, not that has to be covered with an asterisk and fine print so we stay out of legal trouble. This is the time to start acting on your pledge of customer service, not just pledging it.
