Marketing
and Business Development Professional
Award Winning Syndicated Columnist
January 05, 2009
I'm Russ Maney, proud husband and father,
marketing and business development consulting firm co-founder, and award-winning
syndicated columnist (currently on a professional writing hiatus, but still with
plenty of opinions!). The
primary purpose of this Web site is two-fold: as a place to share things
with my family and friends and as a final resting place for my
columns. My motto as a writer is:
"Good, logical arguments, wryly worded."
This is yet another "relaunch" of my personal
Web site and, again, very much still a WORK IN PROGRESS. So, there isn't much here
yet, but I hope to be able to slowly build this site up to its former glory
(such as it was). My first goal is to get all of my old columns re-posted
-- so the links below actually work again. From there, who knows?
Tell me what you think about my columns, especially if you disagree! Thanks for visiting!
