But before that, a little backstory.
Three years ago, a Marketing In Asia team member emailed me, inviting me to send contributions to the site.
The offer was tempting. No, it was not the money. I love writing; always have, always will.
Unfortunately, I never had the time. Or so I thought. Nevertheless, I looked forward to the day when I can be a contributor.
For starters, I shared the marketing trifecta that could help you create social media posts in a breeze and Perry Belcher’s two-part episode interview in Pin To Top.
How was I able to do this? Did I magically have additional hours compared to the rest of humanity?
No. Here’s what happened:
1. I submitted an article. This was not given to me from the heavens, though some family and friends think that way. I applied.
2. This is my secret revealed: I started writing in the morning in October 2020. Years ago, Fred Mosquida told me that he does this. Studying Andre Chaperon’s Autoresponder Madness 2.0 forced me to do it.
Writing in the morning opened my mind because I transfer any idea from my brain to the paper. The new habit somehow allowed my body to embrace writing time.
Expect more Facebook marketing (and marketing lessons) on my Marketing in Asia contributions.
Jennette Cajucom and Azleen Abdul Rahim of Marketing In Asia: thanks for re-opening the doors.
I thank Fred Mosquida for the push.
Jeff J Hunter, that 2018 ten-person seminar in Davao seed continues to grow. Thank you for encouraging me to write.
