Playing with AdWords

I started playing with AdWords and now have ads leading to this site, if you search for Andrew Baisley, and ads leading to Shopp.ly, if you search for various things related to that. We’ll see how it works.

The ones leading here are just for fun. The ones leading to Shopp.ly… well, I really need to drive more beta signups. Tell your friends.

Hey Guys,

We’re so nice that we decided to partner up with Por Homme to give away a couple of our Superclean Low sneakers. We figure everyone deserves at least one great pair of sneakers - it’s practically a human right. We don’t like to toot our own horn, but these are pretty special sneakers. Calling them sneakers might even be a disservice to the attention we put into ‘em. French calf skin upper, waxed laces and handsewn Goodyear construction. Yep, we totally went there. So, how do you enter?

-Follow us on Tumblr and reblog this post.

-Follow Por Homme on Twitter and retweet the contest.

Do either or do both to increase your chances of winning - yeah, we’re that generous. One week from today, we’ll randomly select 5 winners to lace in a super duper clean pair of Supercleans (was that excessive?). Good luck and we look forward to hitting you up in a week with some good news.

Spotify: Classic Rock Playlist

My classic rock playlist on Spotify. Best enjoyed on shuffle. Hand-crafted, but inspired by 98.7 FM The Gator. That’s the classic rock station I grew up listening to in W Palm Beach, Florida. Enjoy.

Charlie has had an interesting career. I like the guy. His response here to some trolls on SAI makes total sense to me.

Haters be haters, ain’t nothin you can do bout that. Shoot.

Conditional Reminders for Email

Email continues to be a space ripe for disruption. Everyone uses email and everyone hates email. Everyone complains about being in e-mail hell, attempting to get to “inbox zero.” Lofty goal.

Point is, there’s huge opportunity for improvement in how we manage our email. Facebook is making some strides there. It’s not for me, but the kids seem to love Facebook mail - in fact, I’m hearing from teachers that many kids these days don’t even have regular email accounts. They use Facebook mail for everything. Gmail is also, obviously, making changes and improvements here, with products like Priority Inbox.

What I’m looking for, today, is a way to remind myself to follow up on certain items. I work in business development and it’s entirely too easy for me to lose track of which prospect has a contract out, which has signed, but needs a countersigned copy, which I’m still working and needs a quick ping, which has told me to touch base again in a month, etc.

I was looking at FollowUp.cc. Awesome stuff. I’m seriously considering using it. But, I have one major problem. I want to set conditional reminders.

For example, if I email a prospect and say, “Hey Bob, have you had a chance to review the NDA?” I want to set a reminder to ask Bob about the NDA again in three days IF Bob has not responded to my original email. If I set a reminder with FollowUp.cc for three days from now, but Bob responded one day after my email, then I have to remember to either delete the reminder then or, when it comes up in two more days, remember that Bob already responded.

Seems to me like that’s just creating more work. What are my options? I love clearing out my inbox, but I hate missing things. How do I set conditional reminders? Why is this not a product?

I know you’re all rationing how many times you click on NYT links these days (ugh, pay wall). But, click this one. It’s worth it.
