It Smells Like Fast Food In Here

If some (young?) person nearby smells like a fast-food restaurant, it might be their cologne, a candle, or their shoes. This information came to me via THE HUSTLE newsletter.



KFC had given out chicken-scented candles to New Zealand fans years ago.

Burger King held a one-day sale of “Flame-Grilled Fragrance” in Japan in 2015.

Back in 2012, 110 lucky fans got free “Eau de Pizza Hut” perfume, which smelled like “hand-tossed” dough.

If I had these products in my home I would probably gain about 50 pounds in a few months. But of course, making me want those products is the point of marketing. 

Six Pixels of Separation

Six Pixels of Separation: Everyone Is Connected. Connect Your Business to Everyone.

Is it important to be connected? Well, consider this: If Facebook were a country, it would have the sixth largest population in the world.

The truth is, we no longer live in a world of six degrees of separation. In fact, we're now down to only six pixels of separation, which changes everything we know about doing business.

This book integrates digital marketing, social media, personal branding, and entrepreneurship in a clear, entertaining, and instructive manner that everyone can understand and apply.


Through the use of timely case studies and stories, SIX PIXELS OF SEPARATION offers a complete set of the latest tactics, insights, and tools that allow you to reach a global audience and consumer base-and, best yet, you can do this pretty much for free. Digital marketing expert Mitch Joel unravels this fascinating world of new media-but does so with a brand-new perspective that is driven by compelling results. The smarter entrepreneurs and top executives are leveraging these digital channels to get their voice "out there"-connecting with others, becoming better community citizens, and, ultimately, making strategic business moves that are increasing revenue, awareness, and overall success in the marketplace-without the support of traditional mass media.
