- Beginner Social Marketer, I'm Kind of a Big Deal
- About Me:
- Hey, I'm a fully fascinated uninformed beginner, German, female, full of ideas which alas! rarely seem to match what I find meandering the IMscene:
My main idea is somewhat educational: I'd love to learn to transfer what I find- found-found over here to the other side of the pond. Only I'm afraid, I won't find too many people to take up my finds. and should that happen as a by-product I wouldn't mind to follow up with the duck's family traditions.

Thanks for the kind words.
I will be meeting Eban very soon, so I will be able to compare. Yanik rocks though, I know him well.
Speak soon.
I will have a Guiness for you ;-)

Well to answer your question.
Some of these people that are in my list of friends
I know from other social networks.
I am all over the web networking
so I am bound to run into someone I know prior.
Some I am trying to escape from but don't tell them that. hehe
I left Moscow almost 9 years ago and now live in Washington suburbs - so don't ask me what's going on over there, I'm sort of clueless :)
I'm just reading your comment on my blog.
From what you write about yourself, Merchantology should develop to be something useful to you as an uninformed beginner.
I read up a little on Lemberg and this is what I have to say about him so far ... his being "unreasonable" is perfect for motivating people who drag their feet when it comes to business ... or life.
It requires you to step out of what you feel is comfortable so that you can produce results in your life that exceed what can be expected.
For example ... you can look at an object and reasonably expect to lift it ... and so when it comes to making a decision, you lift that object.
You may look at another object and reasonably say you cannot lift it ... and in that seperate situation ... you would decide not to lift the object.
At that point, Lemberg would have you be "Unreasonable" and forget that you might not lift it ... and he would have you make an attempt to do what you believe you cannot do. The point being that if you really want to do something, the only way to do it is to ... well DO IT. That involves suspending any excuses that prevent you from making an attempt.
Of course, "Unreasonable" and "Merchantology" are both brands of inspiration and motivation and you may find one or more concepts in both places. So ... ask questions, get educated, then decide what feels comfortable. You might like one brand over another, or you might find both brands useful.
My sincere belief is that if you are going to seek education and support ... go with whatever falls in line with what YOU want to accomplish. And as long as it's moving you forward, keep at it.
Merchantology is going to be a little more technical, providing real sources of wisdom and business strategy. When you get on my mailing list, I will be directing you to check out all kinds of sources related to what you find on my site and what the readers express they want to know about. A key part of Merchantology will be your participation because I'll be customizing to what the people want ... with a dash of "Chris" thrown in.
Thanks for taking interest Mara. Great question.
