#MarketingGenius or #EpicFail? Back in 2010, I launched a local energy drink called Beantown (which later became Bawstins) in the New England market. The competition was brutal. Red Bull dominated shelf space, followed by Monster, with Rockstar trailing behind. We didn’t have millions of dollars for marketing, so we had to get creative to build brand awareness. We noticed a larger percentage of our consumers were men, so we thought… where’s one place every guy goes when they’re out? The restroom. So we came up with a guerrilla marketing idea: urinal mats that said our drink was “Wicked Pissa!” Very Boston. Very memorable. We thought we had cracked the code. The problem? We didn’t account for the mats blocking proper water flow. Instead of just marketing the brand… we flooded a bunch of bathrooms and ended up losing some very big accounts. Lesson learned. At one point we were in 400+ locations, and while the brand didn’t ultimately succeed, the experience taught me lessons about marketing, risk, and problem-solving that I still use today running @FTFofAmerica Sometimes your biggest “failures” turn out to be your most valuable business education.

Yup like a former station GM who got into a fist fight with a valuable client in the Fenway suite & threw him out...a client who had just contributed tens of thousands of dollars to the Jimmy Fund Radio Telethon just hours before...#suitetales

I’m all in on this fight! 19 years ago I was in Tunica, Mississippi covering Elite XC for 1510 The Zone Radio! Although my pal @Jon_Anik and I are not getting that weekend back in our lives, we did get to interview @ginacarano aka “Crush” back then from American Gladiators! This should be great entertainment! I can’t wait!

Hey kids what’s this? You have 6-7 guesses! (See what I did there?) So many thoughts here! It has to be over 10 years since I actually held a newspaper. Probably closer to 15 years! Also, can’t believe Dan Shaughnessy is still writing? I know for most Boston sports fans he’s a villain and hated! He was always nice & respectful to me. He was great at 1510 The Zone radio w/ The McDonough Group! Was very cool when I filled in for Eddie Andelman at 96.9 the talk station. For someone to be doing it as long as him, much respect! Hey @BostonGlobe do you still do home delivery? It was kinda nice to get black ink on my fat fingers and not have my cell phone in my hand during breakfast! I’m getting the paper again! Who’s with me? #ink #sportspage #nolategamescores #asimplertime
