Argh. This was one of those Iโ€™d hope would survive. Great product. Lousy management.

Kind of sums up most content agency work:

โ€œThe knowledge is locked inside teams that donโ€™t publish & the publishing is done by people without the knowledge.โ€

Knowledge is the new โ€˜keywordsโ€™ and brands need to promote and discuss their knowledge clearly and effectively for Google, LLMs to reward!

I am 100% onboard with that.

And by that I mean I'm *never* going to board another Ryan Air flight.

I - like many tourists before me - have a fish (and chips) and gull story.
Spoiler alert: The gull had lunch. I did not.

Iโ€™ve always been more of a โ€˜metrics that matterโ€™ kinda guy looking at business impact over vanity metrics like pure organic traffic growth.

Showing up, and showing up for the right queries, and earning clicks that engage and convert?

Good call. Not difficult to get. In fact via the app we got approvals in less than 2 hrs for me the wife and kid when we went to UK in early March.
The immigration control experience at Heathrow is getting much quicker/better as well. ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

There was this whole thing where people said the French wouldn't embrace bicycle commuting like the Dutch because of inherent cultural traits and these lanes would be ghost towns. Instead, obviously, bike usage exploded as soon as the infrastructure was made available. These are all lessons people!

Echo the โ€˜smallโ€™ aspect
I'm thinking of building something local where speakers present their topic 4 times in a day (in same session room) to small audiences (~20 folks) allowing for many more questions & opportunities to not โ€˜miss sessionโ€™ that overlaps another) + allows speakers better feedback
