Yesterday I spoke with Instagram and Snapchat king, Jeremy Jauncey, for a story in the Marketing Eye Magazine. 

He talked about why pictures tell the story more so than any other format whether it is in one picture or through a video. 

I couldn't agree more. Looking at a picture, it does tell a thousand words.

As an avid believer that your team should not be encouraged to work overtime, I am doing a few hard yards myself to keep our fast growing, dynamic and innovative business flourishing.

For the past few nights, I have a lot on my mind and everything has been working overdrive. Thank god, that for now, I don't have a personal life and I am on the go travelling doing the stuff that comes second nature to me.

As I sit at my desk in the Marketing Eye Atlanta office, I am surrounded by books; A Novel of Zelda Fitzgerald, Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson, Fun is Good by Mike Veeck, The Girl in Times Square by Paullina Simons, Zero to One by Peter Thiel, The Art of Startup Fundraising by Alejandro Cremades, Start-up Nation by Dan Senor and Saul Singer, Scaling Lean by Ash Maurya, #askgaryvee by Gary Vaynerchuk and Tom Osborne on Leadership.

Hey Atlanta! Have you always wondered what to do now that the long workday/ work week has ended? Are you someone who wants to go out, but doesn't know where to go? Look no further we at Marketing Eye have created a fun filled MUST DO Top 10 Atlanta event guide. So put that remote down, get off your couch, and get ready to have some fun!

I've never thought much about getting married... until I met the owner of Elite Pour La Vie in Atlanta. She shared her vision with me on why she was building Atlanta's most exclusive wedding and evening gown dress boutique.

Elite Pour La Vie features many high-end fashion designers such as Baracci, Marchesa, Zuhair Murad, Charbel Zoe, Mac Duggal, and Johnathan Kayne.

I absolutely love hanging around ATV listening to every single tech entrepreneurs story and dream. They all have "Big Dreams" and that is the mandate of being here at Atlanta Tech Village - but there is one problem. Can they make it commercial?

I remember finding this infographic, back in 2009, during my inter-web travels. It stated that if I were to print The Internet out on paper, it would take 57,000 years to read, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. At a rate of 10 minutes of reading per night, I would require 8,219,088 years.

Is anyone else as excited as I am about how much Atlanta is becoming a major city not just because we are home to fortune 500 companies, but also due to the fact that we are now a major innovation hub?

I am literally jumping out of my boots and my team is going crazy with ideas, innovation and creativity with absolutely no sense of boundaries - and I love it!

I'm a part-time leader in Atlanta. Actually, less than a part time leader - I am here when I can be but mostly I am running around the world doing other "stuff".

Our brand in Atlanta is growing. I am constantly going out and meeting people who know who we are, what we do and follow us on some sort of social media platform.

It's not by accident that we have grown our business here and it can largely be attributed to a few things:

I had a humbling experience today and I want to share with you just what that meant to me as an entrepreneur and founder.

Marketing Eye has been around for more than 10 years. We were not an overnight success, but have steadily grown a very successful business in Australia and in the US (Atlanta, Dallas, Seattle, Denver).

Building a business has never been easy and every single time I think that its got its groove going, I am awakened with a rude shock. It seems that the business is always growing, changing, adapting and needing a new influx of ideas or improvements in the way we do business.
