The Subtle Art of Giving a F*
Mark Manson's popular book "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F***" is not a new idea, it's a ballsy way of repeating other self help mantras like "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff". Some people have taken this to mean that details don't matter. If I shouldn't sweat the small stuff, why do you care that the thumbnail for your news story grabs the right part of the image?

What Your Website Says About Your Business
Over the summer we completely overhauled our Manage Comics website, while doing that we put a lot of thought into what the site says about who we are.
As an internet marketing company, our website is incredibly important. We need to clearly state what we do, how we do it, and why we are unique. As we started thinking about how to make Manage Comics better, we also thought about how we could make the NorthIQ site better, and overall some things we think are important to every website on the internet.
How Mature is Your Marketing?
Three years ago Craig and I sat down and created a download called "The Kickstart Guide to Marketing using Science, Not Magic", it was basically my bootcamp into the world of marketing. I had always considered myself a "marketing minded designer/developer", the truth was I really only understood the basics.
I knew about branding from years of working at Canada's major media brands (TSN, CTV, Alliance/Atlantis, Bell, and The Globe and Mail). I knew a lot about attracting and building an audience. I had even learned about conversions from Craig and had applied the things I learned at my day job to run some successful side hustles.
