KMA: teaming up with the competition

It’s time to kick Monday’s ass… How in the hell is it already almost July? And how have the last few months managed to drag out until eternity and also pass in the blink of an eye. (I’m sure it has nothing to do with me watching every show in my Netflix and Hulu queues…

abdication vs delegation

I have a confession to make: Tech and I don’t get along. Unless it’s super intuitive and gettable-at-a-glance, I tend to give all technological solutions a wide berth. That’s not to say I’m a luddite – my smartphone is practically glued into my hand some days (an unhealthy habit, that’s for damn sure). And being…

KMA: you can’t make this s*** up

It’s time to kick Monday’s ass… I’ve been in a bit of a funk lately… Could be the weather (hot, humid, and stormy… thanks Houston). Could be the sleep study I did last week that threw off my schedule for days. Whatever the reason… I had a hell of a time thinking up something to…

KMA: getting inside someone’s head

It’s time to kick Monday’s ass… Last week I spoke on a friend’s call (Kevin Rogers – Chief Chat), and he invited me to share something I’d learned about what I call my “not-so-secret superpower”… empathy. So… I’m not actually a naturally empathetic person. I’m a naturally judgy person, usually ready with a snarky comeback within 0.2…

advice to new copywriters, from someone who hires copywriters

Today I had an ambitious up-and-coming copywriter reach out to me via private message. Normally I would leave this kind of convo unread and not engage – life is much saner for me that way. But his approach caught my attention and I felt inspired to try and help him out by sharing some advice…

KMA: when they won’t step up…

It’s time to kick Monday’s ass… I’m not the first to say this, and I’m sure I won’t be the last… I’m over 2020. It feels like we’ve had a whole decade pass us by in the last few months – it’s hard to even know how to react anymore. Continents on fire, plagues, murder…
