7. Advice and Networking “I’m forwarding the link to a few folks in the K-F office to let them know I saw it and how it drew my attention immediately. ” “I did like UNC. It’s great for entrepreneurship if you want to take some of this energy and start something for yourself.” “Seems like you would make a great addition to the school, especially if you were willing to lend your talents / experience to some of the clubs … like the MarComm Advisory Board.” “The best professor I had around marketing metrics would be Charlotte Mason. There are some great innovation professors too that might dabble in the Web 2.0 world, so try Arvind Malhotra.” Patrick Ottenhoff | patottenhoff@gmail.com
