power post
apologies for the lack of posts lately. it's been insane around here. both pups got pretty sick this week. jessie even had to spend a night at doggie hospital. i think we're through the worst of it, but yikes- it was scary.
on a service kudos note, last week adam and i went car shopping. we hit several dealerships, including dave mungenast honda on s. lindbergh, mazda, vw, toyota and ford to check out the escape hybrid, which they didn't have.
we did a few test drives at different dealerships and, therefore, met with a few different salesmen. we drove two different honda models and spent awhile with our guy, jim. at the end of our drives, jim introduced us to the sales manager. jim followed up with a phone call a couple of days later. he was friendly, attentive and did not pressure us at all. a couple of days after that, we received a signed letter from mungenast.
this is the way service should be. it was so good that we actually feel guilty we are leaning toward another car. it was so good that we gave serious consideration to the excellent service and our second choice car. car shopping can be a painful ordeal, so kudos to dave mungenast honda for making it a little less painful and for impressing us with their phenomenal service.
and on a keeping-up-to-date-on-business-reads-kudos-note, seth godin is an inspiring marketing writer-guru. our above mentioned car shopping pursuits brought up an intriguing conversation between adam and i about the psychology of branding. godin often discusses this idea. i'm a blog stalker of his. you should be, too.
knowing how oblivious i can sometimes be, i was especially interested in the following youtube video that appeared on godin's blog last month. just when you think you know the answer...
i'm slowly becoming a youtube fan. you're probably wondering what took me so long, right? it is super smart that at the end of each video, one can copy the code and put it on their own blog, myspace page, whatever. that's how things get viral and spread like mad.
well, in our own little techosphere, we now have the power to post our wedding slideshows on facebook and allow our clients to copy the code and post them on their own pages. go viral!
