What we got back were some amazing stories like this one…

Shortly after starting our digital creative agency (in 1998) I read a fast company cover story about Seth and permission marketing. At the time FC posted everyone’s email, and I saw an opportunity for his company (Yoyodyne) to hire my small agency. !I used what I learned in that very article to craft an email to Seth that won me his business, and opened the door for us to ultimately become Yahoo!s first outsource agency after they bought Yoyodyne, allowing our company to grow and thrive.
