Why Jason Falls Rules

Jason Falls is visiting Chicago. I was speaking to Amber Naslund, and said that she should say hi to Jason. I then went on to say that Jason never calls, never writes, never sends me flowers, and that he should give a guy some love now and again.

About two hours later, I’m visiting the office. I’m not in the office much these days (why should I? – customers are out there). Brendan comes by from out front with a HUGE surprise. Watch this video:

There’s a social media lesson in here, too: surprise your customers. Surprise your colleagues. Do something remarkable.

Thank you, Jason, and thanks Amber for the support.

Very cool. Social media and networking aside, this shows the power of an act of love and kindness. Awesome stuff.

Jason is a great guy and although I have never met him in person, he always takes the time to help out and give advice to me when I am a nobody in the industry and just getting started. I have learned so much from his blogs posts and discussions with him and look forward to his insights everyday. Everyone should subscribe to his blog http://www.socialmediaexplorer.com/

Ah, well I can only take credit for being the instigator…I passed along the message that you were missing Jason, and his devious brain clicked into immediate action. I merely dropped the hint that I might happen to know where you were at the time…

But man, I have not laughed that hard in a long, long time. Your reaction absolutely made our day.

I love the “misty eyed look” in Chris’ eyes in the video – Whether it’s for comedic effect or not, it makes the video a classic.

How is Jason able to be everywhere in 24 hours? The guy has esp and a very good heart.

LOVE it! The flowers are gorgeous! What a treat and such a fun thing for a hump day.

Just wondering…was Jason your first? I know it’s pretty rare for a man to receive flowers.

Connecting social media with real life is the best part of all. Thanks for the example.

Aww. Now if that isn’t true bromance, I don’t know what it is.

(Eww, did I just say ‘bromance?’)
