Episode #330 of Six Pixels of Separation – The Twist Image Podcast is now live and ready for you to listen to.
Jonathan Salem Baskin is not only a marketing book author juggernaut, he’s now on a mission. The author of Branding Only Works On Cattle, Bright Lights & Dim Bulbs, Histories Of Social Media and Tell The Truth (which he co-authored along with Sue Unerman – Chief Strategy Officer of MediaCom, a WPP agency), is now trying to get young people interested in marketing. In support of the ideas in Tell The Truth, Baskin and Unerman are hosting a contest for college undergrads and grad students to win a paid summer internship at MediaCom’s offices in NYC or London. They will also put the best truth briefs in a book entitled, Truth Tellers: How Tomorrow’s Leaders Would Change Today’s Brands, and distribute it free around the world, giving students a great credential in their job searches. Along with that, Jonathan is a Blogger over at Dim Bulb and a bi-weekly columnist for Advertising Age. His opinions on Marketing, Social Media and the new world of branding will get you thinking and it’s a pleasure to have him back on the show. Enjoy the conversation…

Thanks for sharing, Joel. I think the book is quite similar to The Next Evolution of Marketing. There is one chapter talks about telling the truth as well.
