You get what you give out...


"Profiles in Marketing Excellence" author, Pamela Lockard (my boss and DMN3 CEO) is quite the giver.... (And let the "butt-kissing" commence)...

Not only has she managed to run a successful and profitable marketing agency for the past 20+ years, but she continues to find ways to give back. Pam's extra time isn't spent on what you think it would be - lavish dinners, box seats at the opera, chartering a jet to Tahiti, etc. Pam is an active philanthropist. And philanthropy is part of her inspiration behind the book - "Profiles in Marketing Excellence."

Now that I probably have a fat raise coming my way (J/K, Pam!), I might as well send you to the "all-things-books" blog, BookTrib. Pam recently contributed a post and in it she writes about giving back. She talks about her dedication and involvement at the Mission of Yahweh, a homeless shelter for women and children. What's funny is that many people consider themselves philanthropists just because they signed a check, or three. But not Pam. She is a board member and at the Mission's campus at least once a week, alongside her husband and fellow board member, Ron. They volunteer their time, not just their money and even get some of us at DMN3 involved (I've been twice).

So to bring it all in "full circle style," readers of the book are enjoying one of Pam's philanthropic gifts. "Profiles in Marketing Excellence" is created to inspire marketers and students. Before, something like this just wasn't seen at your common bookstore. Pam noticed that and did something about it - and that something is called giving back.
