• Fear is the New Black – It’s the Latest Must Have and you’ll have it too Sunday is a great day for business news. It’s as if the reporters keep mum on the good stuff all week so they’ll have something to stun us with as the opening bell rings for Monday.

• PR Advice for 2008 -- Top Two Tips for Increasing Your PR Profile in 2008

• Brand Extensions and Disruptive Technology Last month I worked with a fascinating client, responsible for billions of dollars in sales through brand extension. Brand extension (and licensing) is the process of taking an established band into uncharted territory and capturing new audiences and revenues as a result.

• Building a Brand or Banishing a Brand?
• Marketing for Architects - It's an Art and a Science Marketing for Architects is an Art and a Science. It’s an art because, architecture is not merely a practical field, it’s an artistic one. Architecture combines the passion of fine art with a set of deliverables – that will one day be not only a building, but an organic form where living, breathing people will go to learn, think, live, work and play. But, when Architects go to market their services, they are like the first kid in a sand box – alone with just a bucket and a shovel.

• Architects and Contractors Unable to see Problems After all, for the architect nothing is a problem. It is simply a matter of program (how many people do you want to house in this building on this site, and how will they need to interact?), budget and timetable. For the Contractor it is simply a matter of “We’ll need this schedule of manpower, machinery and time in order to produce the results you seek.” Surprisingly, Architects and Contractors see none of the magic that goes into their work.

• Positive PR Without the Pain How come all the same guys are getting all the press? And, how come you keep seeing the same names quoted as sources?
• End of the Year Fear
