Nice Birthday Present from Seth Godin

November 14, 2009

purple cowFriday was my 53rd birthday, and as birthdays for old people go, it was okay, I guess.  But there was this one little “shining moment” (to misapply the iconic phrase of my friend David Barrett) in the day.  Laura opened her new copy of Seth Godin’s new release of his famous and fabulous book, Purple Cow, and there I (and this blog) was on page 186.  The topic was Murfreesboro, Tennessee-based Dispensary of Hope.

Sure, you can file this post in the “gratuitous self-promotion” category, but then it’s not every day you find yourself excerpted within the pages of  a marketing powerhouse’s seminal book–even if it’s just 200 words-worth.

You’d do the same thing :-).
