A little bit of marketing advice. A little bit of trend surfing. A little bit of opinion. A little bit of ranting and raving. A little bit of, well... everything from our creative — and insightful — noggins.

The day a photographer left me speechless! (You won't believe this.)

Tracy Marlowe  |  October 14, 2009
And trust me, it's not becuase of the photos he produced. If there is one thing that I won't let go of, it's my work ethic and accountability. Almost to a fault, I don't want to let anyone down. So I just have to share a story that happened to us recently. As a business […]

Tracy Marlowe  |  August 26, 2009
Sorry all of you out there who are seeking relief from monthly irritability. This post is about the printing industry standard color palatte, otherwise known as PMS. First things first, PMS stands for Pantone Matching System. (But that's a mouthful, so hence the acronym.) I'm sure there isn't anyone out there that hasn't at one point stood […]

Learning to be the Account Executive who says "no"

Tracy Marlowe  |  July 28, 2009
When my career first evolved so that I was providing marketing services for a variety of clients rather than working directly for one (from the seat of a small San Antonio advertising agency), I was like most Account Executives.  Eager to please.  Striving to give the answers that the client is looking for.  I was always […]

San Antonio Ad Agency Celebrates Anniversary

Tracy Marlowe  |  July 22, 2009
It's hard to believe that I've had Creative Noggin for 9 years now. Seems like just yesterday I was trudging through agency cubicle land, bleary-eyed with my daily Diet Coke in hand.

Seth Godin knows it's all about trust

Tracy Marlowe  |  June 19, 2009
I was just reading Seth Godin's current blog post about "Two ways to build trust."    As I read it, I kept saying to myself, "Uh huh!  Yes!  Yeah!  Oh, that's so true!" He hit home on a very simple concept that seems fairly common sense, yet there are still so many companies out there […]
