I go in and out with 🔗🎙️Hardfork with Casey Newton and Kevin Roose. Topics aside the ‘out’ is often because they both have a habit of moving the tone of their voice up a couple of octaves which truly pierce’s my ear drums.

And just now I realized how much they also remind me of YouTuber 🔗📼 Ryan George — who can be very funny - and equally piercing.

 


Thank you Roger

Can’t help thinking (hoping?) that Nike’s 🔗 ’told you so’ ad’ is aimed (just a little bit) at a certain segment of voters.

Intuit FAIL - And All Because Of A Failure To Communicate!

‘Storm in a teacup ‘or fallout not yet settled?

At the very least the story reflects poorly on Intuit’s head of communications who clearly doesn’t understand how communication works in 2024.

And yes I have listened to the whole podcast. The guy clearly doesn’t even understand journalism!

🔗 Intuit’s PR Team Has Seemingly Never Heard of the Streisand Effect

Good post from John @Gruber today - and not wrong. But I think there’s more.

🔗 This is Rick Heineman’s LinkedIN Profile

  • 1.144 followers on LinkedIN
  • He seems to have NEVER posted - despite being at Intuit for 7 1/2 years

If you are ‘THE’ dude for communications at a place like Intuit - you should understand how social works. The data on his profile suggests he doesn’t. For all I know he might be a Rock Star over on TikTok - haven’t bothered to look - but for Intuit - surely this is a place to have a presence?

He wouldn’t even need to do it himself. He has ‘people’ for goodness sake.

All I know is that IF you are in corporate communications for any enterprise - you need to be at least socially aware. ideally ‘active’ - whatever that means. . If that company is B2C (and I think Intuit is) - then double down on this.

He got promoted just 6 months ago. Maybe he was trying to make a name for himself.

He clearly has.
