Never before have we had so many ways to communicate. But never has it been so complex. We have turned communications into a field of study, as a science and a high art, and elevated it to an industry. But still, we are overwhelmed, confused and frustrated. However, there is a better way to simple, strategic and sustainable communications. The SMART Way.

The DIY Newsroom arrived today. I started reading it when I got home and couldn’t put it down until I finished it. Such a great read. Simple, elegant and immensely practical. The DIY Newsroom is about to be put to good use as I rebuild my new ‘newsroom’ ... I mean marketing team! |
