If you know anything about me, and my past, you know that providing easy access to education and training has always been hugely important to me (and the companies I work for!)

“Ugh, we didn’t get an email out this week! (or this month!)” Does that sound familiar? I know it does for me. I get it. We all do. Sometimes, we simply have too much to do and the less critical items fall by the wayside. But here’s the thing: these little things add up, and […]

It’s Friday, the 13th you all! The last Friday, the 13th I remember was in March of 2020 and it was a very bad day for the whole world. It’s the day we shut down. A quick google revealed that there’s been another one since then in August of 2021 but I have no recall […]

Dax Shepard’s intro to his podcast is in my head as I start writing this today… Hello hello hello and welcome welcome welcome welcome to The ONeil Edit. I guess that’s my brain’s way of trying to psyche me up for writing this morning. I’m in a bit of a funk and finding exciting marketing […]

Oh how Ioath April Fool’s. I find it to a be supremely irritating tradition. Therefore, you shan’t find a joke or prank within these paragraphs. It’s cold here which is super lame because I am in desperate need for sunshine and warmth. It has yet to be confirmed but I have a sneaking suspicion that […]

This week’s Edit will be short and sweet, just like my attention span of late. Two of this week’s articles were actually shared on LinkedIn by family members which is a weird coincidence.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day 🍀one day late! It’s my favorite fake holiday and I really brought my A game to it this year. I bought light up Shamrock glasses and a matching shamrock light necklace to wear to all my video calls yesterday. It was an extremely video call heavy day so it helped keep […]

Last week there was no Edit because there wasn’t anything noteworthy to write about. This week is another story. As I have said before, often the themes in my work week are parroted in the week’s newsletter content. This is one of those weeks. First and Zero party data collection, email open rates, SEO, housing […]

There was an internal discussion this week about whether the auto-reply email is still relevant. Well, that topic immediately got me sitting up in my chair. Can you guess what camp I sit in? Coming from the CRM side of the business, I am most definitely on Team Auto-Reply (along with a Thank You Page). […]

Dynamic personalization in both website functionality and in marketing is highly effective. Somewhere between adding a person’s first name to a mass email and adding a potential home buyer’s family photos to digital frames in your model homes when they schedule a tour (and use their Facebook login to do so) lies the sweet spot.

And we’re writing… (or so the little voice in my head says as I begin to formulate the content of this week’s Edit.) I have a system for this endeavor. File all unread newsletters during the week into a folder in my inbox Friday morning open and read each newsletter, clicking open any articles that […]
