Considering a New Project? Timing Is Everything
When launching a new product, service, or website, timing is crucial for boosting visibility and engagement. Here are some key considerations and how Barrel O’Monkeyz can help.
A “Work” in Progress
This past long holiday weekend, I couldn't help but contemplate the state of workplace America, especially as I strolled the beach, smartphone in one hand, sunscreen in the other, and visions of the next great volleyball match dancing in my head. Independence Day fell...
Just the Facts . . . and the Feelings
The Fourth of July is upon us. Without question, that means it’s time for baseball, barbeques, family and friend get-togethers, fireworks, parades . . . and for yours truly as much beach volleyball as these aging (ahem!) bones and muscles can stand. I like to think...
A Busy June — The Month That Was
As shout out to all who attended, organized, or otherwise participated in these fantastic events during the month of June. A good time was had by all!
Time for an Attitude Adjustment?
Catching the news these days (and it’s tough not to, between 24 x 7 cable news networks and ever-present Internet news feeds), it’s clear a lot of the newsmakers out there could use an attitude adjustment. From the stagnation that is Washington DC, to Russian...

Shoot to Cure HD!
Huntington's Disease Society of America-San Diego is putting on its 12th annual outdoor party “Shoot to Cure HD!” this Saturday, June 15 at Petco Park. Guests are treated to food and drinks from more than 20 of San Diego’s favorite eateries, tickets to the...
Bring on the Sunshine
Cap and gown ceremonies, bridal bouquets, and the telltale absence of school busses on the roads tells me it must be summer again . . . or at least we’re getting mighty close. Summer officially arrives on June 21 at 1:04 a.m. EDT, but already the days are long and...
Follow Up Those Leads
I read in a recent article from the American Marketing Association’s The Buzz that 70% of leads generated through marketing are never followed-up on, even though 65% of marketing budgets are spent on generating leads. Ouch! That’s like applying for a job and 70% of...
Placing Value on Feedback
On the heels of last week’s Blog about getting to know your customers better, and getting more comfortable asking them how they learn about, buy, and even use your products or services, I got to thinking “How do I incentivize my customers to give me feedback?”...
