Thanks for the link Nathania. I think I owe you thanks for last week too. Quotes of the week is a great idea by the way. I’ve been enjoying reading them and like to see the single quote pulled from a post. Sometimes without the context around the quote I think in new directions and it’s interesting to see if the direction I went with it has anything to do with the author’s original intent.

Nathania, Thanks so much for another inclusion in your list. So, might I entice you to change my link to the original posting on my blog again?

Steven - It’s amazing how a singular thought can trigger an entire new idea or way of thinking! That’s why I love doing the quote post every week. I’m so glad others are getting value out of it!
Stoney - LOL - I looked at the Emarketing Performance feed to find the post and finally assumed it was only on SEG! Now, I see it was from back in July. Will change!

Andrea, it’s an honor to have you on the list. There was no way I was leaving that “distilling” quote off this week’s list!!!!
October 15th, 2007 at 12:31 pm
Wow Nathania! What an honor to be included on this list. Can’t wait to tell my friends that I am quoted on the same list as Seth Godin!!
Warmly,
Sarah

Sarah - Seth Godin should be honored to be quoted on the same list as YOU!
You really get what consumers want: that feeling of being known and understood. And pushy, aggressive tactics don’t pull that off. Thanks so much for writing a great, concise quote to really bring it home.
