  1. Vidio is interesting but Far to short.

  2. Good video. Looking forward to parts 2,3 and 4.

  3. You’re changing your style… why?

    For a long time your email blasts had great interrupting subject lines that grabbed attention, and demanded a read. Often they had little or nothing to do with Machining. They were brilliant, because it kept your marketing front and center in people’s minds, yet offered engaging and interesting content that demanded to be read. Frequently pulled from current events such as the CEO of Dominos daring to announce their pizza was terrible… But lately it seems that’s been lost… your subject lines pertain directly to machining, and no longer differentiate themselves from the bulk of other mail that comes in.

    I get untold amounts of bulk email and most of it looks very similar, and typically is deleted. The only reason I noticed these emails, is that I’ve learned to associate “Today’s Machining World” with an interesting read… otherwise it would have been lost in the noise.

    It takes *a lot of guts* to do what you were doing previously, it goes against ‘conventional’ wisdom and from my perspective as a marketing specialist, it was working exceptionally well…

    I wish you the best of luck either way, but hope you don’t lose the really cool thing you had going there…

  4. Jason,
    I am sensitive to your comment> Noah and I try to mix it up on the blog so our audience is often surprised, My working premise is that our readers are very astute people with a variety of interests like we do.
    I want to reach them at different touch points, thus recent comments about autism, basketball, economics, centerless grinding Romi trying to buy Hadinge and of course my much maligned piece on Obamacare.
    Some readers will only read stuff that they think will directly affect their business life and others couldn’t care less about reading machining material. I want to reach everybody I can, thus the variety of blog pieces. We get about 6000 opens on a blast so I figure a lot of folks like a lot of things we write about, but we will never please everybody every time.
