Stop sitting on the sidelines and watch others pass you by. Instead, pass them up by getting in the front. If there is some big event going on in your industry don’t make a lame excuse and say that you will attend it next year, instead make sure you are going to be there this year. Embrace any opportunity that allows you to get some limelight within your industry. [...] [...] If you see a parade, makes sure you get in front of it.

Not even Citizen Agency. These are private interests, thus private parades. People aren't going to get behind that. I agree that one as a paid endorser cannot be so effective...that is why you have to create an amazing experience. I would say that you try to amplify the voice of others...or just step back and let it happen. Actually, Charlie…I never want to lead a parade for any company. Not even Citizen Agency.

I have to admit... I sort of felt the same way for a while... and maybe Riya just wasn't the company that you ultimately wanted to lead the parade for, but where do you think the line is? Can you ever really be as effective as a paid endorser/PR person, etc... than an evangelist customer? As a paid marketer/PR person, should we ever hear your voice or should you just be amplifying the voices of others? It's something we're thinking about with Voki, our upcoming consumer avatar product. “I was among those who suspected she loved the blogging community more than Riya itself.” I have to admit… I sort of felt the same way for a while… and maybe Riya just wasn’t the company that you ultimately wanted to lead the parade for, but where do you think the line is?
