Inside The Mind Of The King Monkey Himself
Pennywise, Pound Foolish
Everyone likes to get a bargain, whether it’s on a big ticket item such as a new car, a great cut of meat, or some knick-knack at a rummage sale across town. But when does getting a great deal begin to back fire on you? Do you ever reach a point of diminishing...
Know When to Hold ‘Em, Know When to Fold ‘Em
We’ve all had those projects/business ventures that just don’t feel “right” from the start. They seem to make sense at conception—they may even get us jazzed—but once they get underway, the momentum just sort of fizzles. For every one step forward, you seem to take...
Win By Being the Best You Can Be
REVENGE. It sure makes for great movie fodder. After all, what can be better than Ricardo Montalbán (as Khan Noonien Singh in Star Trek II) purring “Revenge is a dish best served cold” to Kirk and crew as the faltering Enterprise faces near-certain doom? Good stuff...
Branding: If It Looks Like a Duck, Swims Like a Duck . . .
Back in 1600, when Shakespeare penned Juliet’s now-famous line “What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet,” I doubt he ever imagined it would be used in a 2012 business blog about “branding.” But here it is. And with my sincere...
Paul’s “Theory of Creativity”
Creativity is amazing. Seemingly out of thin air, creative types produce great works of art and literature, they innovate with architecture, technology, medicine, song. If you can name it, chances are there was a creative person behind it. You think Albert Einstein...

[Laurie Pehar Borsh is a public relations professional, social media PR consultant/guru, and member of the Barrel O’Monkeyz team (http://www.lpbpr.com/).] How do you track results from your traditional direct mail or advertising campaigns? If you’re like most small...
Social Media: Not Just Another Sales Pitch
[Laurie Pehar Borsh is a public relations professional, social media PR consultant/guru, and member of the Barrel O’Monkeyz team (http://www.lpbpr.com).] Nobody likes to be outright “sold to” either online or offline. Just think of the last time you went to lease or...
Whether it’s Marketing or Medicine, One Size Does Not Fit All!
I hurt my back recently and the outpouring of support from friends, family, and colleagues has been amazing. THANK YOU everyone for your well wishes and your empathy. At times like these, I often like to step back and see if there’s some underlying message I only have...
Know Thy Strengths
Entrepreneurs are quite often the prototypical “last man (or woman) standing.” We’re the first to arrive for work, the last to go home, and we’re never really off the clock. We think we can do it all—from CEO to Sales Director to Marketing Guru to Maintenance...
So You Want to Start Your Own Small Business?
I am always being approached by friends, colleagues, and sometimes even strangers who are thinking about starting their own small businesses. They want my advice, my insight, a glimpse at whatever “secret sauce” I’ve been cooking that’s allowed me to start-up several...
Time for a Selection Process Reboot
As we head down the path of choosing our President for the next four years, with incumbent Barrack Obama a shoo-in for the Democrats and Republicans still looking for their “player to be named later,” I must admit to feeling a bit disconnected. We are a nation 311...
Pebbles
Sometimes our hearts and minds are stirred by the unlikeliest of sources. Take last week’s episode of NCIS (that’s right, NCIS—one of my guilty pleasures and one of TV’s top-rated dramas for nine years and counting). The main character on the show, Jethro Gibbs...
