Who the Hell is Stanford Smith?

Heh, great question.

I make my living as an online marketing strategist. I’m particularly interested in using social tools to achieve a competitive advantage. During my career I’ve designed successful online strategies for Ford, Alltel, Mazda, The State of Michigan, Quiznos, and many other stellar organizations.

Right now, I work at Fluency Media, a spooky-smart digital Agency in Ann Arbor. I’m the V.P. of Marketing and resident “big thinker”. I love my job and actually look forward to going into work everyday. I’m lucky.

Why I’m Super Intense About Blogging

I believe that blogs are revolutionary.

I’m stunned by how quickly one voice can be amplified into a torrent of action. All you need to do is act. If you have something important to say or do, then a blog can elevate your podium above the crowd.

In fact, blogs and other social tools are perhaps the most democratizing and empowering technology leap since the printing press.

Pushing Social exists to help people like you harness their personal power and voice to change their world. Our tool of choice is the blog.
