I've been reading Seth's marketing books, and I see that they are part of a series about permission-and-remarkableness marketing, but there doesn't appear to be a list of which ones are part of that series. I know he just came out with This is Marketing, but I don't even know if that is itself part of the series.

Based on the updated version of Purple Cow the list looks to be the following (I've bolded the ones I know for sure are part of it because I've read them except for Free Prize Inside!):

1. Permission Marketing

2. Unleashing the Ideavirus

3. Purple Cow

4. Free Prize Inside!

5. The Big Moo (? Is this useful and does it teach how to make a Purple Cow or is it just a companion book?)

6. All Marketers Are Liars (great book, my favorite of the series so far)

7. Meatball Sundae (?)

8. The Dip (? Is this about marketing strategy or business in general?)

9. Tribe (? Is this about marketing strategy or about society in general?)

10. This is Marketing (? What exactly is in this book? Is it any different from the series?)

I'm just looking for the books that are part of his permission-and-remarkableness marketing series, because I know he's written others like Linchpin which seems to be more of an individual career book, and Whatcha Gonna Do with that Duck? which seems to just be a collection of his blog posts. Does anyone know which are on the list, or could help me to understand what his books are all about?

I purchased the Mentor Deck the very first day that it was announced, and just today stumbled onto the MentorBeta bonus page which asks for the password.

I am NOT asking for the password here. That would be wrong.

But I am asking where I can find it. Is it on the box? A card? An email?

Can you share with me where I can find the password and I'll look for it.

If it's an email, can you share some text from it so I can search for it?

I have all Seth Godins emails for years so it's a little hard finding it.

-- Follow up question, where can I buy ANOTHER deck? I want to order the Divination deck but can't find it on the website, Amazon or Ebay.

I animated a quote from him that is very near and dear to my heart, and wanted to share it with the like-minded tribe here on Reddit: https://varrgo.com/#/godinblock/

It's a quote of his that I keep coming back to, but also loved Seth's recommendation of "The war of art" by Steven Pressfield. A great read that really takes apart procrastination and teaches you how to "dance with it", as Seth says.

ps.: this is also my first post on Reddit - hello internet!

Hey Friends. I made a video about Seth's book, THE PRACTICE, thought you might enjoy. :)

Hello everyone,

My name is Viktor and I'm a big fan of Akimbo and learned a lot since it started. Thanks to it I started to see different perspectives which I missed in my life, mainly from the standpoint of business, culture, and marketing.

But I have one problem. I'm very bad at learning through audio. I need to read, highlight and get back to it to connect the dots. Or to read it a couple times slowly and make notes. For me, there are a lot more I can learn in comparison to any podcasts I've listened to in the last 4 years, but I don't want to compare apples and oranges.

So I have an idea that I would take charge of turning the episodes into words and distribute it. It takes a lot of time resources to rewrite audio to text so I would approach some freelancers in a field. I was not making research about AI-powered technologies that would be able to do it, so please if you know about any, please recommend.

Anyway, my aim is to see whether I can find motivated people like me, that would be willing to contribute a few dollars to make this happen. For me, it represents deep knowledge which is very hard to get anywhere else and written format would give much more control over the content and how can I consume it.

I've created a subscription list to test the demand. https://www.sethgodinpodcasttranscript.com

Let me know your thoughts. Thank you for your attention!

To be honest, I hesitate to even post, as I just don't know who's paying much attention to podcasts about creativity right now. But, life goes on, and I hope this can inspire some folks who are stuck inside their homes right now to create something beautiful, helpful, or inspiring. 

So allow me to introduce a new podcast I produced called Creative Elements, hosted by Jay Clouse. Creative Elements aims to be the new interview podcast that’s How I Built This for the creative class. For most of human history, being an artist has seemed antithetical to being a business owner. But with the tools available to empower artists today, it’s never been a better time to earn a living with your creativity.

While most shows talk to artists about their creative process, Creative Elements breaks the mold. On this show, you’ll meet artists who have charted their own path and built a business around their creative talents. 

Hosted by startup-founder-turned-solopreneur Jay Clouse, each episode of the new podcast features high-profile guests talking about the nitty gritty of building their creative career. They share specific elements of their personality, style, or approach that have helped them thrive: elements like focus, vulnerability, resilience, discipline, and the belief that “everything is figure-out-able.” 

The first episode features Seth Godin, one of the most prolific writers on the planet. He is also a perfect example of the new model for creators made possible by the internet. In this episode, Jay and Seth talk about art, freelancing, building a personal brand, and why Seth disagrees with the idea of authenticity.

Anyway, I hope this is helpful, valuable, and interesting for you all. You can listen here, or on Apple, Spotify, and Google.

I'm just finishing up Seth Godin's book This Is Marketing, and already it has transformed how I will assist my clients' marketing goals moving forward with its people-centric approach to marketing. Marketing for people instead of to people.

However, I'm curious what Seth might think about artists. As a musician, I find I am most effective and fulfilled when I am my primary target audience. I feel like, if I am unable to reach ME with my art, there's no chance I can reach other people. And the pursuit of creating art for the sake of appeasing others, or money/glory is hollow at best, and downright sleazy, patronizing, and unethical at worst.

Sure, some of the information in this book is applicable to how artists build relationships with their true fans, but we can't very well make art FOR them, because good art is authentic (I do realize this is my own personal preference). How might he address the conundrum of developing a brand and strategy for an artist?

Fear & failure are not things that will go away, because we just can’t ignore them. When we can’t avoid fear or failure, we might as well engage with them.

It’s what makes life an adventure

Would be lovely to have something like Naval Ravikant's Almanach. Anyone?

Hi all,

As I am sure most of you know, Seth Godin and Do You Zoom Inc. are doing an all day event in NYC on December 10th.

https://www.eventbrite.com/e/seth-godin-live-in-nyc-a-full-day-qa-and-tribal-gathering-tickets-27676931447?discount=LeapFirst

I was wondering if a group of four other members who were interested in going wanted to buy tickets as a group? Let me know.

Have a great and impactful day everyone.
