Hi friend šŸ‘‹šŸ¼ and welcome to this weekā€™s edition of ā€œthe dump.ā€

This week Iā€™ll start with an opinion piece I wrote, titled ā€Stop Marketing. Start Meaningā€ - itā€™s directly inspired from reading ā€œFor the Cultureā€ by Marcus Collins. Itā€™s not just a book, itā€™s a manifesto for marketers who actually want to do things that matter. And I think you should read it too.

Of course we alsohave stories from our writers, a few links from around the web, and, of course, a lot of fun stuff to click on.

As always, we really appreciate you and your support.

Letā€™s go!
