\nSPEAKER March 2009 — Roy mentioned<\/a>, originally uploaded by royblumenthal<\/a>.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n

\nLondon-based media guru, Alan Stevens<\/a>, honours me with a huge mention in the latest issue of the American magazine, SPEAKER<\/a>. (To navigate to the story, use the ‘Contents’ tab on the magazine page, and go to page 32.)<\/p>\n

In his column, BEYOND BORDERS, he offers eight marketing tips that he’s picked up from his travels around the world.<\/p>\n

He says, ‘Consider using cartoon portraits or graphics to market yourself. They can make you stand out from the normal head-and-shoulders shot. I was "cartooned" by artist Roy Blumenthal in Durban, and have used the graphic very effectively.’<\/p>\n

Not bad! Thanks for making me an entire marketing tip, Alan!<\/p>\n

I’ve composited the cover, and clips from Alan’s article into the top half of this picture. <\/p>\n

The illustration at the bottom is a visual summary of a talk Alan gave at the annual conference of the Professional Speakers Association of Southern Africa last year.<\/p>\n
