Guerrilla Marketing Goes Green, with Shel Horowitz
David Mathison interviews Shel Horowitz, author of Guerrilla Marketing Goes Green (with Jay Conrad Levinson)
Can YOUR Business make the world a better place?
Can you improve the earth, your profits, and your customer base all at the same time?
YES! Today Shel will teach you how:
* Making your business Green can slash costs and provide a powerful “hot button” leverage point for your marketing
* Faking a Green commitment (“greenwashing”) could destroy what you’ve worked so hard to build
* You can create powerful partnerships that bring you directly in front of new and key audiences, at little or no cost — even competitors can be part of your success!
* When you treat the prospect as intelligent, base your business on ethics, and actually anticipate those prospects’ needs, your growth can be exponential
* If you use old-style interruption-oriented marketing that insults your prospects, you’re writing a recipe for failure
* The conversations you create and the experiences people have with you are more important than any amount of traditional branding or advertising
Shel Horowitz has been involved in environmental and social change movements his whole life.
In 1972, at age 15, he was involved in a community group that opposed a nuclear power plant proposed for two miles north of New York City.
A veteran of the 1977 Seabrook occupation, his first book, written when he was only 22, was about why nuclear power makes no sense.
Kevin Kelly: What Technology Wants
Today's guest is bestselling author Kevin Kelly, whose new book is titled What Technology Wants
What Technology Wants, by Kevin Kelly
Kelly's new book introduces a provocative view of technology, comparing it to a living, evolving organism that has its own unconscious needs and tendencies - even a drive towards sentience.
In his attempts to discover "what it wants," Kelly uses examples from the past and then forecasts into the near future to project where technology is headed.
The book is an optimistic look at how humanity and technology join together to produce increasing opportunities.
We're excited to have been one of the first interviews Kevin has granted regarding his new book.

Kevin is also author of the best-selling New Rules for the New Economy and the classic book on decentralized emergent systems Out of Control.
