How To Spread An Idea By Seth Godin

(Photos are by John Abbott.)

An Interview With Uber-Marketing Guru Seth Godin

Today is an amazing day! At HungryPeople, we rarely get the chance to speak to our heroes. And today a miracle happened and yes folks, we're having Seth Godin! Considered as one of the world's leading authorities in and on marketing, Seth has continued to amaze the business world with his fascinating and effective ideas that not only captivate the world but set us on FIRE!

In this amazing interview, Seth gives yet his most interesting take on what spreading ideas is all about. YOU should read on.

Take us back to when YOU were starting ChangeThis. What was YOUR original motivation in starting it?

Ideas that spread, win. And the digital age is demonstrating that ideas can spread online fast. So, how could we figure out a way to package and spread important ideas, ideas that mattered, ideas that made things better... as opposed to junky YouTube videos? The answer was to come up with something longer than a blog post, shorter than a book and beautifully laid out.

So far, more than a dozen bestsellers (including books by Malcolm Gladwell and the Freakonomics guys) have appeared in ChangeThis format first. I'm really proud of that.

YOU seem to be starting many of the amazing things on the web: Ideavirus, ChangeThis, Squidoo, etc., where do YOU get all the energy to do this? Why do YOU do this?

Because we ship. That's what people do. We make things happen. The internet makes it easier than ever to ship ideas out the door. How can you sit this one out?

What's the key to being a great marketer?

Tell stories that spread. Make products that are remarkable. Live the story, be consistent, stick it out!

Describe to us an ideal marketing strategy for YOU? Is there such a thing?

I don't think we should spend a lot of time on "ideal" and I don't think you should change who you are in order to be a better marketer. But once you understand what you WANT, figure out how to tell a story about it, one that works and spreads.

Should YOU have a background in Sales to be great at Marketing?

Everyone should have a background in sales as far as I'm concerned.

If YOU were stuck with Malcolm Gladwell for one hour inside an elevator, what can we expect from both of YOU?

That actually happened (well, not an elevator, but backstage). It was fun. He's one of the kindest, smartest guys I know. Our job (if I can put myself in his job category) is to encourage people to rethink what they're sure they know.

Who are YOUR personal heroes? Why?

People like you, and the people reading this. People who ship. People who stand up, speak out, think things through (at least a little). Individuals who understand that they have an opportunity and a responsibility. Great teachers, the ones who will stand up to the forces of mediocrity. And any parent who shows up and does the job.

What are YOU hungry for?

I feel like I'm only getting started in spreading ideas that have a chance of changing the world for the better. I'm hungry for more of that.

What's coming soon from YOU?

In January, something new. Keep your eyes peeled. I'll pre-announce (love that word) on my blog in December.

About Seth Godin

Seth Godin is an author, blogger and public speaker. He has founded many companies, including Yoyodyne and Squidoo.com. So far, his 11 books have been translated into 34 languages. He's probably most proud of the amazing work and breakthrough ideas that people have been provoked into finding as a result of his daily provocations.

"There!"

Big ideas...

The thrill of possibility

"The thrill of possibility, the chance for recognition, the chemical high of anticipation.That's what people pay for." - Seth Godin

Don't take Godin's words literally and say that people also pay for their plain bread loaf daily. If you are a startup making bread loaves, good for you and read no further.

Many of us in the startup space start out with dreams of changing the world. (Being the next Google is secondary; We actually dream of dwarfing GOOG). But then, quite mysteriously, we tend to forget that dream while conceptualising & engineering the product. For example:

• "Aggregation / mashup / kitchen sink": My product has all the features that all competitors have. [So, what? Can it change the world?]
• "Differentiated": My product has features that no one else has out there. [So, what? ...]
• "Improved": My product improves productivity / experience. [So? ...]

Those are actually examples of subtly disguised "me too" products. Since there's no 'thrill of possibility', such products are at the mercy of luck.

Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. 3 And in the process of time it came to pass that Cain brought an offering of the fruit of the ground to the LORD. 4 Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat. And the LORD respected Abel and his offering, 5 but He did not respect Cain and his offering. And Cain was very angry, and his countenance fell. 6 So the LORD said to Cain, “Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? 7 If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.” 8 Now Cain talked with Abel his brother;[a] and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother and killed him. 9 Then the LORD said to Cain, “Where is Abel your brother?” He said, “I do not know. Am I my brother’s keeper?” 10 And He said, “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood cries out to Me from the ground. 11 So now you are cursed from the earth, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand. 12 When you till the ground, it shall no longer yield its strength to you. A fugitive and a vagabond you shall be on the earth.” 13 And Cain said to the LORD, “My punishment is greater than I can bear! 14 Surely You have driven me out this day from the face of the ground; I shall be hidden from Your face; I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond on the earth, and it will happen that anyone who finds me will kill me.” 15 And the LORD said to him, “Therefore,[b] whoever kills Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold.” And the LORD set a mark on Cain, lest anyone finding him should kill him. The Family of Cain 16 Then Cain went out from the presence of the LORD and dwelt in the land of Nod on the east of Eden. 17 And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch. And he built a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son—Enoch. 18 To Enoch was born Irad; and Irad begot Mehujael, and Mehujael begot Methushael, and Methushael begot Lamech. 19 Then Lamech took for himself two wives: the name of one was Adah, and the name of the second was Zillah. 20 And Adah bore Jabal. He was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock. 21 His brother’s name was Jubal. He was the father of all those who play the harp and flute. 22 And as for Zillah, she also bore Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every craftsman in bronze and iron. And the sister of Tubal-Cain was Naamah. 23 Then Lamech said to his wives: “Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; Wives of Lamech, listen to my speech! For I have killed a man for wounding me, Even a young man for hurting me. 24 If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, Then Lamech seventy-sevenfold.” A New Son 25 And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son and named him Seth, “For God has appointed another seed for me instead of Abel, whom Cain killed.” 26 And as for Seth, to him also a son was born; and he named him Enosh.[c] Then men began to call on the name of the LORD.
