Hallie and I attended The Portland Business Journal’s 2008 Fastest Growing Private 100 Companies reception tonight at Portland Art Museum. We represented Anvil Media, the only search engine marketing (SEM) firm to make the PBJ Fastest Growing 100 List. Needless to say, we were pleasantly surprised with the outcome. After watching clients […]
I just spent a little time this morning reviewing my schedule and noticed I’ll be attending, exhibiting or speaking at quite a few events over the summer. I thought I’d take this opportunity to share a few of the events with you here, so you can plan accordingly.

Being a Class A Moron just got harder. NBC’s 30 Rock integrated Google into Thursday night’s episode with a New York Post Page Six storyline plot involving Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin). A controversial comment in the infamous newspaper created an association between a search for Class A Moron and Jack Donaghy in a Google search. […]
As a former board member and long-time supporter of Portland Advertising Federation (PAF), I’m very pleased to see the 100+ year old organization is evolving and staying relevant with the ad industry. Most recently, a group of PAF members formed a special committee to create a unique internship opportunity for marketing students looking for real-world […]
For Anvil Media’s Spring field trip, we tapped DreamLife Powersports for a snow-filled adventure on Mt. Hood. The Anvil team headed up to Trillium Lake, where we were met by the DreamLife team and loads of toys. For the excursion, we rented 4 snowmobiled (aka sleds), 1 quadrunner and an RV. For […]
It’s been a long haul, but I made it. I blogged 16 sessions for Search Marketing Standard over a 4 day period. I learned a few things, met a few people and even picked up a cold. The obvious highlight was lunch with Seth Godin, but I did enjoy SearchBash ‘08 at Spotlight in Times […]
Those of you that have followed my blog for awhile are aware of my relationship with author and marketing guru, Seth Godin. Since the SEMpdx Webinar, I’ve keep in touch, which led to a lunch meeting while I’m in New York for Search Engine Strategies blogging for Search Marketing Standard. The primary reason I had […]
I’ll be at Search Engine Strategies in New York City this coming week…providing daily blog updates on Search Marketing Standard. Be sure to check out my blog coverage of Online Marketing Summit (OMS) in San Diego a few weeks ago, in case you missed it. Also, feel free to follow my updates via Twitter.
Newsweek recently published an article, Google Yourself and Enjoy It, highlighting the growing need for Internet Reputation Repair aka Online Reputation Management (ORM). Although my search engine marketing agency, Anvil Media, Inc., has offered ORM services for clients the last few years, coverage in mainstream publications like Newsweek certainly add validation to a growing online […]
Since the first dive bar bus tour I attended 6 years ago, I’ve been a big fan. So much so, I co-organized two dive bar bus tours myself. Aptly named Tie One On, we rented a school bus (or two) and filled them with well-dressed friends and stopped at some of Portland’s greatest “dive” bars. […]
