2022 Retrospective

2022 is coming to an end and what a year it has been.

I finally met in person my long time friend and marketing thought leader Mark Schaefer at his Uprising event in Knoxville, Tennessee. The event was the first step forward of building an ongoing community of marketing leaders where Mark also launched the RISE community where you can explore the future of Marketing.

In between I also changed job where I joined the online University called “FernUni Schweiz” as their Digital Marketing Advocate where I am excited to build a community and sense of belonging for people who want to start or enhance their careers with a university degree.

My experimentation with Artificial intelligence has been very rewarding and I can only encourage you to embrace and to learn from AI which is transforming every marketer career.

We moved into our new home but unfortunately we also had a loss in our family. My beloved father-in-law tragically passed away this year and he will be remembered forever.

It’s time to look forward and I hope that 2023 brings you and me even more opportunities and that we are able to make the most out of them. The Uprising event coming to Europe in September sounds very exciting and I hope to be able to attend and to make even more connections in the industry. Drop me a message if you would like to know more about the Uprising event.  

But remember, as long as the Matterhorn stands, everything is going to be alright.

Cheers people

Web3 – The Future of Marketing #2

Mathew Sweezey, the futurist of Salesforce,  blew my mind with his impressive talk about Web3 at the last Uprising event.

He explained how Web 3 is changing the way consumers interact with brands and how brands approach customer lifetime value.

Don’t get confused yet about the buzz words such as NFT’s, Wallets, Blockchain, Discord, Open Sea, Crypto, Metaverse and so on.

Simply understand that Web3 is a power shift

Consumers now control their data, not brands. 

Mathew Sweezey

What brands need to see is how this changes the relationship between them and consumers. Each iteration of the web has changed this dynamic, shifting power more and more towards consumers. 

Web3 is envisioned as a digital space where services are operated, owned and improved by communities of users like you and me.

This is truly amazing and a trend you as a marketer, cannot ignore and need to get up to speed.

Enjoy the ride😁

But remember, as long as the Matterhorn stands, everything is going to be alright.

The Future of Marketing #1

Video Location – Market Square, Knoxville, Tennessee after our hiking in the Smoky mountains.

After all these years, I finally met in person Mark Schaefer at The Uprising event in Knoxville, TN.

What a JOY and listen in this video to some of the takeaways directly from Mark.

  • Belonging and creating a community is the future of Marketing.  Hint: Web 3.0 is exactly about belonging.
  • If you have a great community and belonging you don’t need advertising or SEO. You have everything you need that leads to business connections.
  • When you bring people together and meet them face to face it changes everthing. The Uprising event is proof of creating a magical bond among 30 marketing thought leaders.

Join the Markting Rebellion and the Uprising is coming to Europe. Stay tuned.

The Uprising Event – Here I come

I’m getting very close to finally finally meet up with my long-time friend Mark Schaefer at his Uprising event in Knoxville Tennessee.

Our journey started over 10 years ago when I was simply looking for a book that could help me to get a better understanding of Twitter. I came across Mark’s book the Tao of Twitter and the book was just right for me and ever since I follow Mark through his blog podcasts and books.

I also had a chance to be mentored by Mark and finally, finally we’ll make it happen to meet up in person. Oh yes baby like Mark would say and I can’t wait.

Check out for yourself to learn about Mark Schaefer how he could help or inspire you through his blog or books and join the marketing Rebellion.

But remember as long as the Matterhorn stands everything is going to be all right.

Greetings from a Swiss mountain guy;-)
