Posted on July 3, 2012 by --Jeff Yablon/The Answer Guy-- Influency & Integrated Marketing Strategist • 1 Comment

Yesterday, I told you about great customer service—and really bad customer service, too, from my recent trip to London. Today, we’re back in The States, and the customer service protagonist du jour is one Louis CK.

Yes, that Louis CK. The foul-mouthed and funny comedian who turned marketing on its ear late last year is at it again. Louis CK is about to do a stand-up tour and is selling all the tickets himself. ... READ MORE of Replacing ‘Marketing’ with ‘Customer Service’?

Where Are You, Craig Newmark? The Surrender of Craigslist.

Posted on September 16, 2010 by --Jeff Yablon/The Answer Guy-- Influency & Integrated Marketing Strategist • 2 Comments

It’s official. Adult Services (Or Erotic Services as they were once known in the USA and continued to be named elsewhere) are gone from Craigslist.

This makes me sad.

I don’t use those services and never have. I don’t know people who do use them. And I don’t want this to be a too-far-to-the-left political rant where I scream about free speech. I’m disappointed that in an era where communication itself is the world’s largest growth business someone as smart and well intentioned as Craig Newmark has caved in. ...

Do you miss prostitution on Craigslist? Don’t worry; it’s still there.

Oh man.

Before I get started, I need to point something out: Craig Newmark is an absolutely lovely man who spends his time doing good things.

Craig Newmark is a very smart man. Sure, you can be cynical and look at Craigslist as a fluke, or a ‘first-to-market’ that got lucky and think otherwise, but that would be a mistake. The guy continues to churn out one smart business change after another at the service that bears his name, and has become a featured commentator at Huffington Post, where that blog’s huge numbers give Mr. Newmark a very large platform for stating his opinions. ...
