Last night we held the first Boston-Area Startup Marketing Meetup here at Aprigo’s world headquarters in Waltham. I gave a presentation entitled “Getting Your Startup Noticed Online”. It was mostly tactical and focused on execution and content promotion, with a little bit of strategy sprinkled in.
About one minute in, I noticed a few attendees feverishly [...]

I’m really excited about this one, as I love Christopher S. Penn’s presentation style. He always gives usuable, actionable tactics that can be used immediately. That’s a rarity in a lot of conferences I go to. There’s a lot of high-level social media kumbaya, “join the conversation” talk, and things like that, but Christopher does [...]

And unlike the previous shots at having meetings, we actually have a venue this time! Depending on the turnout we have two options…if there are 25 people coming we can [...]

Today is day two at my new job as marketing manager for aprigo. Though I can’t say much about the company right now, I can say that it’s a SaaS startup out of Waltham, [...]

Springpad, the service that offers online notebooks to manage tasks, (covered here in November) has just launched a Date planner springpad to help you plan Valentine’s Day.

I had an email conversation [...]

Over the last few weeks, I’ve been kicking around the thought of having some kind of event series focused on startup marketing. The idea is to get a bunch of Boston-area tech entrepreneurs together to talk about the challenges they face in getting past all the noise and getting their products/services noticed. I’ve been reaching [...]
