My First Day At The New Job and Why I Need My Own Jet and Off to Chicago

Just touching down in Cleveland.

I’ve made a major move in the past few weeks, and I haven’t been able to talk about it until now. Today, the official department announcement was made, as of July 3rd I will no longer be the Internet Marketing Manager of MPS. We’ve made a ton of progress in the last year and a half at the group, and I will miss all the great people on my team.

With that said, I’m very excited to tell you about my unofficial first day at my new job, working with one of the most successful information marketing legends in business today. Just 18 days ago I replied to an add on online and today I boarded a private jet, brainstormed with one of the sharpest marketing minds alive today, on our way to an exclusive, two day, members only - closed door mastermind event, with a room full of multimillionaire entrepreneurs and the living legend himself, Dan Kennedy. How’s that for a good start.

I don’t officially start until July 9th, but I’m sure that after these next two days my brain will be buzzing in a million different directions and I will have notebooks full of ideas to put to work.

The event goes until Wednesday, and after that I will be right off to Chicago for the American Marketing Association (AMA) Search Engine Marketing Event - the notes of which I will be sure to post on SEMJax.org. It’s a sold out event and pretty good line up of speakers. I know Stephan Spenser won’t dissappoint, and Neil always has some good stuff to share on social media. And with another recent career change, I wonder if Vanessa Fox will be there, representing Google as planned.

Unfortunately, after flying on the private jet, my Southwest flight to Chi-town will be a big disappointing “back to reality”. It’s so nice being able to walk right on to the plane, take a seat in any one of the huge comfy leather seats, and walk right off with a car waiting at the end of the stairs to take me to my hotel.

I may or may not post notes from the inner circle event. I wouldn’t want to give away any trade secrets… shhh! But keep an eye out just in case.
