A Purple Cow Evening with Seth Godin and Hugh MacLeod

Last night was quite a thrill for new media marketers, social media strategists, artists, entrepreneurs, bloggers, and fans of Seth Godin and Hugh MacLeod in NYC. We were part of a private event limited to 100 people at ilili. The purpose of the event was to celebrate/commemorate MacLeod’s cartoon for Seth Godin’s Purple Cow Best Seller book.

Art which made this event possible.

Hugh MacLeod started working as a copywriter for a NYC firm, who soon after his arrival in NYC, started to illustrate on the back of business cards. His witty, unorthodox, and untamed approach to corporate worklife, technology, and society, have earned Hugh international acclaim and a unique place among contemporary artists. You can learn more about Hugh and read his blog here. I had the opportunity to chat with Hugh and ask him what is his favorite piece. He chose and spoke to me about two of his favorites. One of them is below. Available for sale, here. Seth Godin needs less of an introduction. He is a business champ! Seth has paved and radically shaped new media marketing and business. Not only with great ideas, writing, and speaking, but also superb start-ups. Make no mistake, Seth is in the Business Hall of Fame. Seth blogs everyday and everyday, he challenges our thinking.
