GUYS. First off, happy 2020! I know I have been ignoring this blog for a long time. In fact, I’ve been ignoring this blog for so long that this blog post is the result of a list that I started so long ago that I’ve lapped the location I’ll be talking about and visited it […]
It’s day 4 at SXSW, and as always, it’s a seriously dense, information-packed and highly experiential event. Look out for my SXSW diary post after the event on the Convince & Convert blog. In the meantime, I wanted to share a couple of cool experiences where I actually got to participate in the experience. Make the Audience […]
This past fall, I traveled all over the country to Orlando, Cleveland, Buffalo, Fort Lauderdale, Fargo, and Austin—mostly for business, but I also got some family time in there as well. As a professor, as well as a marketing consultant, I often find myself looking to my experiences for examples and case studies to share […]
In the last few months, I’ve been all over the country talking to people about digital marketing and content marketing. It’s always fascinating to learn what are the challenges they face and find out how they can use these concepts with their own professions/fields. With that in mind, I’m excited to be the first speaker […]
My life has been a whirlwind of activity these last few weeks, and there’s still more to come (brother’s wedding is almost here!). Before I get swept up in the next swirl of busy-ness, I want to take a few minutes and just share some of the highlights. Incredible Attendees at Social Fresh and Content Marketing World […]

A photo posted by Zontee Hou (@veritablyzontee) on Mar 20, 2015 at 2:01pm PDT Some of you may remember that during last year’s SXSW, I was on the edge of my own sanity. It was too much stimulation, not enough hours, too little sleep, and just terrible transportation. With that experience in mind, I tried […]
This past weekend, I got to spend time with my friend Michelle and our friend Patty Lyons (knitting teacher extraordinaire) at the New York Sheep & Wool Festival. It was my first year ever going to the event, informally known as Rhinebeck because of its location, and Patty, her husband, and Michelle were the consummate […]
In the summer, we all like to plan weekend getaways during which we can enjoy the great outdoors. Personally, I love a day at the beach, but I also love hiking or biking and exploring a new place. This summer, I’ve been lucky enough to go on two wine country trips: one to Napa & […]
