Meddle™ is a content marketing tool for subject matter experts

What if you could become an industry influencer by simply offering perspectives on content you read, without quitting your day job?

Or even better, what if your entire workforce became influencers and ambassadors for your company? Imagine the reach and impact you would have; the market share you would win.

Cool Tools Show hosts, Craig Fisher and Lars Schmidt talk with Meddle founder Vidar Brekke and CMO Ted Coine in this fun exploration of the tool, plus much more.   

We end as always with more cool tool recommendations plus some cool tunes as well.  And in this one there is some bonus material you won't want to miss.

Marcus Buckingham chats with Craig Fisher at the 2015 SHRM annual conference about his research that shows performance management is broken and that we determine promotions and raises in the workplace based on bad data.  He also discusses how he rebuilt his company, TMBC, to better address these issues at a team leader level by strategically combining technology and coaching to help organizations know and grow.
