After a short hiatus from SI, I have finally returned! I have been focusing a lot on social media campaigns for a few clients that, quite frankly, left me uninspired to do much for myself in that area. A lot has happened since I was last on. My b...

Shawn Neal commented on Shawn Neal's blog post 'Attention paid bloggers...'
@Robby- I agree, I don't think they will either. Most know my view on it, but I think it ultimately will remain the choice of the company paying for the service. I think it is important that brands understand the debate that surrounds ghost bloggi...

No, I don't think that ghostbloggers will be required to disclose their identity.

Shawn Neal commented on Sara Croft's blog post 'Blogging and Advertising'
I would be interested in knowing a little more about the overall blogging effort- are you working your blog as part of an IMC strategy? What other social media tools are you currently using and how are you using them? I took a look at the Easter S...

Patrick Sullivan commented on Shawn Neal's blog post 'Attention paid bloggers...'
I'll take a guess (with the standard disclaimer that this isn't legal interpretation or advice) and say that a ghost blogger would probably be regarded as an agent acting on behalf of a client. It would also be the client who would have the endors...

Shawn Neal commented on Laina Molaski's blog post 'I hate the telephone (and vociemail too)'
While I agree that text messages and emails are great ways to communicate short bursts of information or ideas, the public relations side of me says that you are missing out on so many opportunities by avoiding the phone. I text when I need to con...

Ok, so anyone who has followed me throughout the past few years knows that I am not a big proponent of paid and ghost-blogging without disclosure. I have long argued that both practices are deceptive and go against the very essence of social media...

Shawn Neal replied to Pat Coyle's discussion 'Are you burning out on social media?'
Funny, I wouldn't say that I am burnt out at all on social media. Will it go away? Probably not. Will it evolve and change? Most definitely.

Why join Smaller Indiana? What are you hoping to experience here ?
I am eager to meet and network with others who have a passion for whatever it is they do in life. I hope that I can share helpful information as well as locate helpful information when needed. I think it is important for everyone to realize that we are in a transitional period right now where we are literally re-inventing (to borrow the GM tagline) the way business is done on a global level. For that reason, our current economic status seems more optimistic to me. I hope to share that vision and help others become active in this re-invention as well!

I'm back- finally!

After a short hiatus from SI, I have finally returned! I have been focusing a lot on social media campaigns for a few clients that, quite frankly, left me uninspired to do much for myself in that area.

A lot has happened since I was last on. My baby, Anderson Creative Solutions, has joined both the Anderson and Alexandria Chambers of Commerce. We are also about to relocate the ACS office to a space at Ridge Crossing Auditorium on the SS of Anderson. I needed an office space and not a store-fron… Continue

Attention paid bloggers...

From the Federal Trade Commission: "The revised Guides also add new examples to illustrate the long standing principle that “material connections” (sometimes payments or free products) between advertisers and endorsers – connections that consumers would not expect – must be disclosed. These examples address what constitutes an endorsement when the message is conveyed by bloggers or other “word-of-mouth” marketers. The revised Guides specify that while decisions will be reached on a case-by-case… Continue

Add me as a friend. It sounds like you are having fun with your new venture.. I wish you great success. As for marketing my services I rely on word of mouth advertising since I cannot do too many jobs at one time being a one person company. Your blogs are well written and enjoyable.

Help

A few things to consider before joining Smaller Indiana:
1. Please use your real name (first and last) when you sign up, or we cannot open your account

2. Please do not use logos or commercial images for your profile photo

3. Events should be posted in the events calendar

4. You can post pretty much anything you want on your own personal page (self promotion, etc), and you can change the style of your personal profile page to reflect your corporate identification if you so choose.

5. Please keep all comments civil and polite. It's OK to feel strongly about a subject, and it's OK to be critical of ideas, but please refrain from personal attacks of any kind.

If you witness or experience any issues, please contact admin@smallerindiana.com and we will look into the matter.

6. Smaller Indiana is supported by its members, and by corporate sponsors. If you're interested in learning more about sponsorship, please call Pat Coyle at 317 332 7878.
