Welcome to My Blog!
Minneapolis, MN - 11/13/07
I’m Graeme Thickins (see “About” at upper right for more on me). I’m very glad you’ve joined me here to talk about how new media is changing the world of marketing, PR, and communications. I launched this blog as part of my new practice focusing on helping clients understand this new landscape. But I decided to open up the discussion to the whole wide world! I hope the perspectives I present here will both enlighten you and spark your own thoughts and ideas surrounding the possibilities of new media, whether your interests are more in social marketing, engagement marketing, conversational marketing, behavioral targeting, or whatever. We all marvel at the new terms being coined almost every day! But, no matter what you label it, the new marketing is all about bringing people together and fostering better understanding and communication in our increasingly connected world. Thanks for joining me here on the NewMediaWise Blog, and please jump into the conversation. I look forward to hearing from you!
