Some of those exist, usually billed as implementation partners that also can do whatever dev work you need. The problem is getting marketing leadership to believe they need those services. Usually you have a handful of technical marketers s

Usually the marketer is stuck between a rock and hard place. A semi-technical marketer will report into a completely non-technical org led by a CMO who thinks pivot tables are black magic. But they same CMO has promised the CEO and the boar

As another marketer, this is 100% spot on. And it isn't a technical gap, but a process and priority gap. I have a ticket open for our dev team that would personally take me about half a day to do. The ticket has been open for over a ye

Any formatting in email is html. There is nothing that requires any text to have any formatting. But basic formatting can help readability. There is a reason to include bold or italics. Or headings. Or maybe even a simple diagram/imag

This can also apply to networking and having a good narrative about your experience. Hiring managers will hire someone they already know or find themselves 9 times out of 10. Do something that gets noticed or get to know people and network.

I really hate when I click search this area and it zooms out to a larger area. I specifically had an area selected for a reason. I know there are plenty of restaurants there. I don't need it to tell me to look somewhere else.

I've found that some of the highest reviewed Chinese food by my Chinese neighbors is barely recognizable and somewhat unapproachable to my western but somewhat adventurous pallet. It is good, but you have to go in looking for an advent

The peninsula and San Jose is terrible but the city and East Bay are good. Silicon valley is full of guts who have inflated egos because of their pay checks, but they have not much else going for them.

So the issue isn't all managers but rather how few good managers there actually are. I think companies don't know how to optimize for good management because, as the other person mentioned, good management can be invisible. The im

Anecdotally in SF it seems like the only places that haven't been shutting down are bars. I lost many of my favorite restaurants and coffee shops, basically all the bars except one is still open. But almost no one orders Anchor.
