Rui Nunes's thoughts and ideas

I'm the Country Manager of MediaResponse™ Group, responsible for developing our major online marketing brands to evolve at the Portuguese Market.

My primary goal with this blog is to be of value to you with my experience and insights as well to be open to your questions and different approaches. Feel free to ask me anything! ;-)

Quality!

Attention to detail

So, here's the thing: Quality has won. This means a big responsibility!
This means that I need to provide excellent posting quality every single time.

Does that scares me? Sure it does!
Does that give me more stamina to accomplish that? Oh yeah!

So here's the thing. When I make such goals it's like a big guideline for me to follow every single day. This is a great guideline for everyone to follow through: quality!
When you aport quality to everything you do, speed and short deadlines explode in a million pieces and a sudden light come above the rubbles. Whow... this is too spiritual. I didn't mean that.

What I mean is that quality isn't something that we can do just from time to time. This is something that we need to treasure and make it grow every single day. Let it make part of yourself. Be a personal characteristic. Make it your character.
My family were very humble with few resources as I grew up, but something they accomplish very well. The family values. One of several of those values has being something that has followed me ever since: "If you're going to do something, do it right!" it doesn't matter if it is to dump the trash or drive the car to work, or even make a blog post. Make it right. Try to do the best you can do in everything you do. It can be very tiring and it can even be annoying for the ones around you. But in the end, it has become what you are. So, were talking about you... or me in this case.

The pursuit of perfection (even if we know that there is not such thing) and quality are two different things. But it can touch each other in some aspects.

I know that my blog can be improved, my blog posts definitely need improvement, but I'm working on it. Always trying to raise the boundaries. It's just me. Stay tuned ... I thank YOU, very much for the attention granted.

Posterous to Blog

This is great. I'm very happy with Posterous as a tool to blog and spread to my social networks. Why? Because it's so very simple.
If you scan my previous articles before a week a go or later my posting articles were very irregular. Sometimes I posted twice on a day, sometimes it would pass more than a week or two. 
One reason is the lack of time, but more importantly, it's the action of sending an e-mail.

We're not distracted by fancy editing functions like on Wordpress or Blogspot. It's just plain content and we focus on it.
This makes me fast and regular, with hassle free.
Thank you, Posterous team.
