I work 70hrs/wk as the Video Production, Online Strategy and Community Manager for MadeFromNewZealand.com - and talk personally/consult on newintel.co.nz

This behind the scenes Air New Zealand video went from 12,000 - 500,000 in 5 days!!! HOW? WHY? Need to do some research/case study on this one!

gary:

Communication in 2009  In a day and age were we can monitor personal and consumer brands there is no excuse to not engage in respective debate. Watch this video to see a real live example off what happened to me today.

Love it bro - you are so real!

People think I’m manic sometimes because I talk about as fast as you and they can’t keep up because they don’t as much about what I am talking about - so I diverge off on tangents to try give them a better understanding (always trying to bring it back to the point).

I think that’s what you do but you keep those tangents really short and easy to understand.

It’s easy to misunderstand passion/enthuasium for arrogance or over confidence (especially if you havn’t met that person in person).

I always hear people out, put myself in their shoes and try understand why they have come to that conclusion which is what you do so well.

Like in my interview with Chris Brogan - peoples nature is to bitch - (In New Zealand we call it Tall Poppy Syndrome) - If you stand out above the norm people love to cut you down. http://vimeo.com/4273458 **** Warning there are references to cocaine use and bank robbery at the end….

Love it bro - off to buy the book now :)
