What I’m Hearing Above the Noise
It’s been nearly three months since the launch of my new book, Marketing Above the Noise: Achieve Strategic Advantage with Marketing that Matters.
During the last 90 days, I’ve been interviewed by press for print, online, podcasts and radio pieces that have appeared in a wide range of publications. I’ve presented to audiences from marketing students in New Orleans to seasoned consultants in Santa Cruz. And, I’ve spoken spoken to dozens of people about the key concepts in the book.
There are a few key things I’ve learned through this process.
We’re Being Heard Above the Noise!
Linda’s new book, Marketing Above the Noise: Achieve Strategic Advantage with Marketing that Matters, is getting rave reviews.

Consider an Advisor
Wouldn’t it be nice to have a third party objective resource? How about a sounding board for reviewing plans, an idea source for planning implementation, a responsive expert for questions and advice, a support system for accountability, or just a devil’s advocate to review potential key decisions.
We offer three types of Advisory Services:
- Executive Advisor – for senior-level corporate executives
- Startup Advisor – for executives at start-up and emerging companies
- Consultant Advisor – for consultants and professional services firms
