Become a Young Successful Entrepreneur

So I am very very excited!  About a week and a half ago, I was contacted by a Brandweek representative to chat about being a young CMO and what my opinions are about marketing and PR.  I’m good friends with Ryan from Brazen Careerist and today I get an email from him congratulating me about being on the latest article!  I didn’t even know that the article had been written, so I google my name and there it was: Marketers of the Next Generation.
After reading the article I realized something that seems to be a recurring theme when you continually try to push your image and company into the public eye - authors will alter what you say and alter your message to create a more buzz-worthy and interesting article. Luckily, I remembered to tell him not to mention what companies have signed on with Future Delivery or else I’m sure he would have added those names in the article.

So what did I learn from this experience?  You have to be very careful with what you say to authors and writers.  It is there job to write an interesting and appealing article so that people will read it.  If they have to alter some things, then so be it.
