Just shows another example of triumph out of adversity.Daniel Laceyhttp://www.daniellacey.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30060900.post-4431498483272060172012-07-30T14:29:36.913-04:002012-07-30T14:29:36.913-04:00It's important for marketers to continue to pu...It's important for marketers to continue to push the edge of marketing. If you watch many commercials, they are essentially the same thing. GoDaddy was one of the first companies to really push the boundaries and they have been widely successful doing it.

Anyway, thanks for the blog post.<br /><br />You are right, he is once a legend of WWE. When I was young, I did what you said, follow him to see what he would do next. <br /><br />I bought a book called Different: Escaping the Competitive Herd by Youngme Moon. That's a great book for marketers to think how to do marketing in the crowded world.<br /><br />Anyway, thanks for the reminder.Kenthttp://humanwebsite.com.mynoreply@blogger.com
