The best achievement of my career

I’ve had the most amazing career. For example, I’ve …

• Published ten books that people love.
• Graduated with two master’s degrees
• Earned seven patents
• Worked with amazing companies like Dell, Johnson & Johnson, and Adidas.
• Been a speaker on some of the world’s biggest stages.

But the very best achievement I’m most proud of is how I brought 30 people together for an entirely new way to talk about marketing. A meeting that created a bond.

Does that seem weird? Well, it’s a pretty great story that had its origins in 2010 and is still going strong today.

In this week’s Marketing Companion episode, for the first time, I tell the inside story of The Uprising retreat. I’m peeling back the curtain of a fascinating part of my life that exposes

• The desperate step I took early in my career when nobody would hire me as a conference speaker.
• The reason I canceled a successful marketing event called Social Slam, even after it had grown to 700 attendees.
• How writing Marketing Rebellion changed the direction of my life.
• Why I rented an entire castle in Ireland this year.
