For someone with the title of senior director of marketing at Ultimus, you really need to learn how to use blogs and bloggers to get your message across. First of all, don't put a purely promotional comment about your user conference on a blog post that has nothing to do with BPM, conferences, or anything else related to your message: it's a frickin' book review blog post! Just because it happened to be the most recent blog post on the site when you stumbled across it doesn't mean that it's a good place to add your comment -- you *do* know how blogs works, don't you? Be relevant! Second, having your PR agent email me 12 hours after you post this comment to see if I want to meet with you at an upcoming BPM conference doesn't exactly make me feel warm and fuzzy about meeting with you. Why not use the comments section for what it's really for, namely to engage me and the rest of the readers in a conversation? Then maybe I'd see if you had anything interesting to talk about besides regurgitated press releases interjected in inappropriate places. Third, the "click here" part of your inappropriate comment would be a lot more impactful if you actually included a link.
