I have been in marketing for 28 years and this is going to be my moment, the one that will define all my career achievements. It is by far the best career accomplishment I have ever made, and it all started because I had a problem that needed to be fixed.

I was told (by someone I have the utmost respect for) to forget about developing Robotic Marketer. This is theworld's first robotic and AI-based technology that develops marketing strategies in minutes, not months. I thought about it for a nanosecond. I had this moment of being scared and defeated. Then I said to myself "but why should I?". I truly believe that I can do anything I set my mind to - and I'm right. 

There are many reasons people do not reach their full potential. Some are due to circumstances that they feel they cannot get out of. Other reasons may be that they're over their head with commitments. Or perhaps it's them. They dream big but do nothing about it.

Marketing Eye Atlanta rocks. They are the most enthusiastic, motivated, fun team we have in the Marketing Eye family. The energy in the office is electric and the vibe in the office would bring anyone's mood to a level of elevation that can only be found when you are doing something you love.

In your 40’s, and you haven’t made your mark yet?

Is it just me, or is it really difficult to say exactly what I want?

Being a marketer who has a background in public relations, it’s always been very apparent that marketing and public relations overlap all the time. So much so, it becomes blurry where the two differentiate. This makes me wonder, are public relations and marketing evolving into the same department, or is there reasons the two remain separate entities?

Do you own your own business? Getting a business up and running is a lot of work to do on your own. All entrepreneurs tend to have the same kind of ambitious characteristics. They are driven, goal oriented, self starters and risk takers. But between building your product and getting it out to the public, how do you know when it’s time to begin asking for help?

Speaking to a Professor at one of America's largest Universities the other day in Atlanta, was an eye-sight into how slow many universities are moving in creating educational programs for marketers to have jobs in the future.

This particular University, isn't sitting by the side-line. In fact, they are leading the way and have added Data Science to the program, and are ensuring that each and every person who does a marketing degree has an opportunity to learn about data science and all that it encompasses.

Waking up today, I have to say, I am feeling quite nostalgic about Atlanta and all it means to me over the past 5 years.

I came here with little or no expectations, just a desire to try something new. From there, and the people I met, something ticked. For many Atlanta appears from the outset to be quite sleepy, but once you cut through the leafy streets, and the urban sprawl, there is so much more depth.
