3-Week Buzz Marketing Challenge

Here’s the challenge - to do as many of Ron McDaniel’s buzz marketing challenges from his book, Buzzoodle Buzz Marketing, as possible.

I’ve got 3 weeks, and you can participate as well! Follow along and go through the buzz marketing challenges - see which ones you can do, and which ones you can incorporate into your everyday business life.
