If you like a compilation of quirky articles and commentary about men, women and advertising, then you’ll enjoy this read.

“The” tip to writing your online dating profile.
I’m a copywriter and marketing expert who writes online dating profiles. As such, I’m always asked “from your advertising perspective, what’s the best advice for writing an online dating profile”.

How to write a great online dating profile.
The two most important things in life are finding the job you want and finding the love you want. Yet, most people don’t take their dating profiles anywhere near as seriously as they take their LinkedIn profiles and resumes. I know. I write both for a living. I also scan dating sites all time.

Thankfully, countless other fathers make positive contributions. This week’s blog begins with one of the loveliest. Dads and… read more →

It’s the only one you’ll find about men, women and marketing. A friend of mine is an actress. She’s older and, by that, I mean she’s in her late 50’s – far from elderly. Still, whenever she’s cast as a grandmother, the scene inevitably shows her baking cookies or giggling… read more →
