We’ve been talking about Seth Godin a lot here over the last week. We covered our podcast interview with him and we’ve already asked 19 top UK marketers what their favourite Godin book is. But I wondered whether you could apply some of the ideas in his books more generally to your search engine marketing work.

A little while ago I wrote a white paper about twitter, and though it went down really well, I think it’s a shame the great tweeted tips I got from my Twitter followers didn’t really reach the audience they deserve. So I fired up Powerpoint and turned them into the presentation below.

A Crash Course in Why SEO Matters to Branding Agencies Video Presentation

Posted by in Training on September 10th, 2009 0 Comments

Fairly recently I delivered a knowledge sharing session with our friends over at MovingBrands, a great London based branding agency who amongst some great work for their clients have been putting together one of the most open & participatory pitch processes I’ve ever seen. Working to rebrand London I reccomend looking at their impressive pitch document.

The session was on how branding and search can interact, the branding & advertising campaigns that forgot search & great tools every SEO will know but will be really useful for branding professionals too.

And as I never like to let a good presentation go to waste; I tweaked it a little and turned it into a rather rushed Pecha Kucha Video.
