I’m so far behind on the TM Update that this one is going to be a bruiser of a post. This will have pretty much everything from January 1 through January 26. Tech Marketing was quite busy in January, as you’ll see! After this I’ll be back to regularly scheduled weekly updates on Tech Marketing material at the end of week 5, on Feb 1st.
