Hi, Mel here.
I meant to write this email about eight hours ago.
Then I got distracted tackling Mount Washmore, our stack of clean laundry.
Then I got distracted making banana bread with my daughter.
Then I got distracted looking at CopyCon posts and photos.
Then I got distracted reading Eddie Shleyner’s book, Very Good Copy.
Then I got distracted curling up and having a teeny tiny nap.
It was glorious. No regrets. I made it here in the end. Hi.
Ben and I saw each other yesterday. He came down to London for brunch with me, Dave Harland (of indie business club multiple-mention fame) and Dan Nelken (of indie business club episode 7 guest-cohost fame).
Anyway, I got distracted again. But look how incredible my brunch was.
My job today is to remind you to listen to our latest episode, Somebody Told Me. I quoted our guest voicenoter Bob Burg at CopyCon on Friday, when I gave a talk titled “Get Over Yourself And Post”.
I also revealed the incredible secret high-performance tactic I used for getting Bob to provide us with a voicenote for the podcast.
I… asked him.
We also gave a shoutout to The Pickerings who run Cowork Crew along with Kabo Creative and The Marketing Meetup Northampton. Ben and I are both at Cowork Crew Cambridge this coming Friday 15th November (Ben’s speaking), then I’m speaking at Cowork Crew Northampton on Thursday 21st November.
One last reminder, you can email us on show@indiebusinessclub.com
Right. Back to my lazy Sunday.
As you were,
