He’s a genius.
Why? The one talent I envy is the ability to sum up an important concept in a simple drawing or cartoon. I really wish I had that superpower. Especially when I’m talking about marketing.
Tom Fishburne, the Marketoonist, is so very good at it.
I have devoted entire speeches to the marketing principles Tom can nail in one panel. Here are two favorites:


Genius.

People called it cruel, but I think there was an element of education to it.

This is horribly true. I’ve only been investigating Internet Marketing for about six months now and you know you sign up to get FREE reports and stuff and what they send you is always the same info in a “package” that looks just a little different from what the last guy sent you.
Also, every presentation seems to follow some kind of “cookie cutter” pattern as depicted in this gentleman’s cartoon panel. Unfortunately its so true.
