Is communication one of the most important issues of our time?

Communication is being polluted by so many ads that it is nearly impossible to cut through the fog and get to the message without being bombarded by flashing, insistent demands for your attention. I don’t know about you, but I detest it, to the unreasonable point of feeling like advertisers do not deserve my business.

We know, and work with, a huge number of people with amazing skills and valuable information we all can benefit from learning about – without having “ads” get in the way. This website – and the others I’m responsible for – are resolutely ad-free.

Accordingly, we try to make really valuable free content available to our networks, on the basis that if readers think we’ve got something they need, they’ll come to us – without being hammered over it. That works really well for us! We showcase the skills and knowledge of those we are connected to – and want to share those connections. That’s what CONNECT is about.

Want to join us? If you do, about once a month you’ll get a short newsletter that tells you what we – and what those amazing companies we work with – are doing. Further, it will focus on the interest areas of the people who have signed up. If, after trying it, you think it’s a waste of your time, you can always opt out.

We DO NOT sell, share or rent our mailing list, nor do we buy them from anybody else. Opposed in principle. I look forward to communicating with you in an ad-free environment.
