Over the past few months I have become a huge Seth Godin fan.  I’ve read as many of his books, ebooks, and pages of blog posts as I can.  His insight and writings about business and marketing were enough for me to think that he is remarkable and worth talking about, but now I have personal proof to back up that claim.

The other night I had a question about my business and really wished I could talk to Seth and ask him.  After about five seconds I thought, well I’ll just email him.  Now keep in mind this is an author that practically lives on the New York Times Bestseller List, has one of the most popular blogs on the internet, and is highly sought after.  However, I figured I had nothing to lose so I sent him a brief email around 11:45pm west coast time.  The next morning I woke up and checked my email.  At 3:49am (6:49am his time) I had already received a personal email straight from him answering my question.

Based on his writings I expected him to respond, but when he actually did I was still surprised.  He probably has the same amount of emails coming to him as my local congressperson and by just taking a minute of time and giving it to me not only did he prove why politicians have high disapproval ratings, he also increased my motivation to tell everyone I know about the experience and recommending his books and website.  In fact, go to his website right now: www.sethgodin.com.
