Just watched an interview with the amazing Peter Shankman.
This is the first I've seen of Peter on video but I read every one of his three emails per day (including the ads). I can say without a doubt I read his email newsletter more than any other email I get. Like Peter, it's straight to the point and awesome. If you want to get media exposure it's the best
Help a Reporter out
He comes off a bit brusque in the video as a lot of people commented. But Frankly, who cares. He's got some good info and has definitely made a success of himself by helping others. Isn't that how it's supposed to work?
But I'm not here to pump Peter Shankman. I'm writing this post to strongly disagree with a statement he makes. At about 17:28 he makes the statement
"Social media is not going to save the world or take 20 pounds off your ass"
And if he's right I might as well pack it up because I'm trying to do both.
Peter's a social media guru. He consults for the biggest of social media campaigns and speaks all over the world on the subject. From the flavor of his email newsletter he's obviously a righteous dude.
But I think social media CAN save the world and take 20 lbs off your ass
Saving the world is a bit of a lofty goal to get done this week. Although we're trying and expecting big things for 2010

So let's start with the other goal. Let's prove Peter wrong. If he's wrong on the ass thing maybe he's wrong on the world thing too.
I'd like to give out 100 free memberships to Break Pal (which, by the way IS social media). Just contact me and ask for a membership. Use it. Engage the other users. Workout at your desk. AND PROVE PETER WRONG!!! When you've hit the goal we want to know about it.
That's it. Get a free membership. Drop the weight. Then tell Peter (skydiver) about it.
Who's up for it? Contact me now and if your one of the first 100 you've got a free membership and can start using social media to
TAKE 20 POUNDS OFF YOUR ASS
and we'll work on saving the world next week.
Merry Christmas

TAKE 20 POINDS OFF MY ASS!
Hurray Phil! I believe you're right on all counts (well, maybe a little hopeful on saving the world, but one never knows...). I've got 20 pounds plus to work off and I can't wait to see my lighter ass! lol Thanks for everything, Kathy
