This coming week I’ll be joining a panel of ski industry professionals to discuss social media’s place in resort marketing as part of the ResortXpo Virtual event. The experience of preparing for this has been interesting. On the one hand, I know I’m immersed in the world of social media for work and in my [ READ MORE ]
Recently I have noticed more and more people playing the twitter follow game: a rude, strategy-driven ploy to gain thousands of twitter followers in a matter of days. Here’s the thing: you’re not fooling anyone. If you have thousands of followers and only a couple hundred tweets, you’re either playing the twitter follow game or you’re REALLY [ READ MORE ]
Twitter is all the rage right now and so I wanted to get this out there before you all jump on the bandwagon and make some mistakes – the same mistakes that I did, well… sort of.

I’ve honestly seen places where I was quite certain someone would die unless something was done about the sidewalks… Anyway, here are some [ READ MORE ]
Well, this crazy Friday saw me out directing lineups of people, answering questions about lessons, rentals, prices, snow conditions, etc., and directing traffic in the parking lot. At least I didn’t have to feel bad about it; I was right next to our Corporate VP, General Manager, Communications Director etc. We all took to the [ READ MORE ]
Next weekend is going to be busy. Very busy. On Thursday I leave for Las Vegas to attend the BlogWorld & New Media Expo. It is so full of excellent speakers and exhibiters I won’t actually be able to attend every session I’d like to. In fact, in a couple of instances I’m going to leave [ READ MORE ]
I have to say, I’m in LOVE with Twitter. I just discovered it a few months ago and already I’ve gained more knowledge from the people and events I follow there than I have from any other single source ever. I think it gives me the opportunity to feel like I’m on the leading edge. It [ READ MORE ]
So here I am, at work… working diligently at setting up Facebook ads and a company twitter. I think it’s my ADD… no, really. I think if I had come into the world 15 or 20 years later than I did, I would have been medicated for it. I was browsing Google’s latest widgets, looking [ READ MORE ]
