This year, at BlogWorld and New Media Expo, Danny Brown and I are speaking! Yes, together and yes, it’s going to be legen (wait for it) dary! Initially our blog topic was “Doucheblogs and Spin Doctors,” but some corporate suit was offended by that title so they asked us to change it. I guess he didn’t want to fly across the country to listen to all [&hellip... Read More

Sean McGinnis consults with small to mid-size customers about DCAL – Digital Customer Acquisition and Loyalty. He blogs about SEO, Internet marketing, social  media, leadership and a variety of other topics at 312 Digital.

No, it’s not Facebook question of the week time. So why the video, you ask? Because it’s here! It’s finally here. The launch of Spin Sucks Pro.
