In the Sponsor Spotlight: Marketing Over Coffee
By on Oct 11, 2007 in Blogtoberfest, Sponsors
Marketing Over Coffee is the brainchild of John Wall and Christopher Penn. It is a podcast that covers, as you may have already guessed, marketing. Probably while drinking coffee. But I’m just guessing on that one …!
The guys cover all kinds of marketing topics and trends in their podcast which they record every business Wednesday at 5:30am Eastern at a coffee shop in Natick, MA.
Go stop by the site, subscribe to their podcast on iTunes and remember to say hi at Blogtoberfest!
Marketing Over Coffee is donated a $25 Dunkin’ Donuts gift certificate for one lucky winner in the random drawing to take place at Blogtoberfest!!
More like brain dead, if you ask me.
Coffee puts the system under the strain of metabolizing a deadly acid-forming drug, depositing its insoluble cellulose, which cements the wall of the liver, causing this vital organ to swell to twice its proper size. In addition, coffee is heavily sprayed. (Ninety-two pesticides are applied to its leaves.) Diuretic properties of caffeine cause potassium and other minerals to be flushed from the body.
All this fear went away when I quit, and it was a book that inspired me to do it called The Truth About Caffeine by Marina Kushner. There are five things I liked about this book:
1) It details–thoroughly–the ways in which caffeine may damage your health.
2) It reveals the damage that coffee does to the environment. Specifically, coffee was once grown in the shade, so that trees were left in place. Then sun coffee was introduced, allowing greater yields but contributing to the destruction of rain forests. I haven’t seen this mentioned anywhere else.
3) It explains how best to go off coffee. This is important. If you try cold turkey, as most people probably do, the withdrawal symptoms will likely drive you right back to coffee.
4) Helped me find a great resource for the latest studies at CaffeineAwareness.org
5) Also, if you drink decaf you won’t want to miss this special free report on the dangers of decaf available at http://www.soyfee.com

Well no one did ask. Cher, I think you’ve got the wrong audience.

Cher, thanks for pimping your unwanted trash on this blog!
What a load of crap, the last industry to be picking on the coffee industry should be the soy industry. All the “studies” on the health benefits of soy are paid for by the soy industry which needed an excuse to dump the byproducts of genetically modified soy into processed gunk like soymilk. And saying that soy has been used for thousands of years is misleading – soy sauce is processed and bears little resemblance to the other processed crap that’s been sold for the past 10 years.
Stop by Blogtoberfest, I’ll have a Venti waiting for you!
btw – why don’t you get back in the studio, you haven’t done dick since that video on the battleship…
