I won’t distract you this week from the newsletter on your desktop. Dig right into it – stuffed, as it is, with many great tidbits to read and some wonderful food for thought. Some of my favorite writers – Mitch McCasland, Dana Blankenhorn and Chris Maher, to name this week’s top three – appear together in this issue, which made for tough ordering of articles indeed. But don’t miss the others, either. Michael Perla is returning after a short absence with another excellent article on managing difficult manager-employee relationships; Brett Hurt makes a case for lifetime-based customer analysis data; and Tamara Halbritter and Hank Stroll wrap up their seven-article series on Everything You Wanted to Know About Newsletter Publishing (But Were Afraid To Ask). And, of course, there’s MarketingProfs’ answer to Dear Abby – our own Tig Tillinghast. Enjoy! As always, your feedback is both welcome and encouraged. Until next week, Ann Handley ann@marketingprofs.com MarketingProfs.com
