I Make B and T’s Top 40… Something.

A little birdy today tells me that the upcoming edition of B and T Magazine has me listed as one of the “40 most important people in digital marketing in Australia” or “top 40 digital media” something. Or something. It has a 40 in it. Anyway… Thanks Brad. I look forward to reading the article and seeing who else is listed.

Strikes me as kind of funny. A couple of years ago I wasn’t even in the top 40 people working at Microsoft Australia. I was just another faceless schmuck working deep in the bowels, getting zero respect. Now at least I’m in the top 40 of something. Isn’t that what life’s all about? I wouldn’t care if I was listed as “Top 40 People Named Cameron Who Live In Yarraville”, I’d still be pleased as punch. My ego needs the boost.

In all seriousness – you guys know that I am nothing special. I know nothing special. I don’t have a degree, don’t have any special qualifications. No special experience. Nothing special about me at all. I’m just an average bloke with some cool $10 Elvis sunnies.

If a schmuck like me can make the top 40 of something after a couple of years, imagine what you could do if you applied yourself? Stop making excuses. Do something meaningful (to you) with your life. As the old bloke says “There isn’t a moment to lose.”

GDAY WORLD #220 – Russell Buckley on Mobile Marketing and Slavery

Russell Buckley is a pommy (did you know that pommy is most-likely a contraction of the word “pomegranate”?) living in Munich and, as CEO of AdMob, one of the world’s leaders in the field of mobile marketing.

When he recently criticized some of the ads running on this show, I decided to get him on to pick his brains. We talked mostly about the state of mobile marketing and other mobile trends, as well as a little about the song “Amazing Grace”, slavery and veganism.

Russell has provided these links (and ageist advice):

“Don’t forget you have to see them on a handset (and be a little younger!) to get full value.”
