Seth Godin Came to My House

Posted by Shawn Collins on January 9th, 2008 | 5 Comments

Big day today. Seth Godin came over to my house. Well, not the real Seth Godin, but rather the Seth Godin Marketing Guru Action Figure.

Seth Godin Action FigureI was thrilled to have this new action figure, but there was one problem. The packaging indicated that it was not suitable for children under 36 months.

I am not sure how I will break it to my one year old son. Then again, I also see that it was Made in China, and I don’t really want to risk giving him lead poisoning.

Anyhow, I went on some adventures with my new Seth Godin doll.

First, we headed in a time machine to Le Web, where Seth confronted Jason Calacanis.

Then we headed back to my place to discuss his new book, “Meatball Sundae: Is Your Marketing out of Sync?.”

We also talked about the Free Prize Inside that came with the action figure. It was a monkey wearing a Big Red Fez, plus “The Little Book of Marketing Secrets” with 12 short tips. It was the first book I ever read in les than a minute.

When the business was out of the way, I introduced Seth to my dog and three daughters. They were all nonplussed by his marketing magic.

Thanks for stopping by, Seth.

    I sure wish this had been available before the holidays – I know 9 people that would have been pleased as punch to get a copy as a gift while I kept the tenth and the Super Happy Fun Seth Godin Power Ranger.

    What better way to chill than on the top of a cold beer!

    Shawn,

    I was catching up on reading your blog and found your post about Seth Godin’s doll.

    I really like the idea! It makes you wonder what else you can do to market yourself, brand, business or products.

    I am looking forward to meeting you at Affiliate Summit.
