Friday, January 16th, 2009
Note To Self #1: Creative Name Tags are Key.
Case and Point: Last night, at Mashable’s January Networking Event, I discovered that everyone was going right up to this guy, David, who’s standard “Hello My Name Is…” name tag so cleverly read: “David Spinks – I need a Job!”. Brilliant! Flat out state your goal at [...] -
