Blogging Here and There

Hi we're doing a lot of blogging here these days, so if you want more sauce, just say G.

Back Again

Your humble editor is back from a much-needed vacation on the heels of a very successful KCRiverFest. No pot of fresh sauce today, I'm afraid, but hopefully you'll forgive a little recycling of our piece on marketing in a recession, posted on eHow.

Now, as we endure the dog days of summer there are signs the economy is picking up. Good news, to be sure, but it will still be a long time before employment levels and consumer confidence returns to even a faint semblance of the pre-recession period.

My colleagues in the PR biz say business is picking up here and there, but they are very cautious about buying that cheap summer home just yet.

How's it going for you? How do you feel about the economy? The comments section is open for you predictions, observations, rants, etc.

“If it’s done right, public relations should pave the way for any branding effort and support those other marketing avenues. If it all fits together, the message becomes more powerful.” --Janey Bishoff
