Rae Hoffman, Rhea Drysdale, and Lisa Barone founded a search marketing company named OutSpoken Media.

All three of the founders are well known in the search industry, and have all the skills needed to take over your SEM compaigns. They are also very well connected. I am a bit biased because I know all three of them, but having worked with both Lisa Barone and Rhea Drysdale I can tell you that these are professionals who know how to get things done.

The company is a full scale SEM provider. Their services include SEO, social media, content creation, online reputation management, affiliate marketing, training /speaking, and more. See their search engine marketing services page for more details.

Rhea Drysdale discusses OutSpoken Media services in videos on the site, I was really impressed with her video about social media in the business world…

Rhea and OutSpoken Media were also recently highlighted in the Wall Street Journal in an articled called “It’s a New Me (As Seen on Google)“.

Lisa Barone is currently covering SMX West for the OutSpoken Media blog, where she covered five sessions yesterday alone. Lisa Barone is a well known industry blogger and her conference coverage and her industry insights are delivered with a unique and observant voice that is admired by all. Make sure to subscribe to her blog.

Rae Hoffman is the CEO and she is a well known talent in the area of affiliate marketing. She is a sought after conference speaker and a great and passionate person. I have read and learned from her for years.

OutSpoken Media is a combination of these three people and weaves together their skill sets.

Expect big things from them.

Rhea, Lisa and myself have decided to leave We Build Pages.

All three of us will be working on private projects that we plan to announce to the world very soon. We’re also open to hearing about new opportunities, so if you’ve been secretly waiting to work with us, now’s a very good time to reach out and catch up.

We heart Jim Boykin and we wish him and We Build Pages the best of luck in their future ventures. That said, Rhea, Lisa and myself are now open for business opportunities independently.

Read the press release here.

In addition to being smart, gorgeous, ridiculously talented, and pig kissing yummy, Lisa Barone is also one year older.

Happy Birthday!

Allow me, dear Lisa, to give you the appreciation your cats do not.

You need not feed me or strain my feces out of a box or anything to get my appreciation. You need only keep writing and making me smile and giggle.

As I did one year ago (wow. a year? to me it has only been, like three beers or something ago. time is weird like poo) I create my only post solely dedicated to one person for Lisa, Lisa, and Lisa Barone.

This is mostly due to how fabulous and wonderful she is.

She is sooo wonderful that I will now embarrass her with photos of the last year of me and Lisa.

A Year of Me and Lisa

Evil and Lostfulness got together and spawned a creature named Rebecca, so sometimes me and Lisa have to look at maps…

I bet you have always wondered if Lisa can eat corn, choke on it, laugh, and stain her shirt all at the same time. The answer is yes…

Can we rock out in Vegas amongst our rocking friends?

Oh yeah… and I don’t just mean any “oh yeah”.

I mean the type of “oh yeah” that was in Ferris Bueller and had a “doo bomp bomp” after it.

Can we share magazines covers with eachother?

Are we drunk? I can’t tell….

Can I make her pout? Yep.

The next photo is a photo that I cut Jane out of. Lisa will be okay with that…

Speaking of cutting people out of photos, here is what will happen to you if you happen to be in a photo with Lisa when her hair looks good (or if she is wearing her knee socks)… you will be cut out of it and become one of her Facebook profile pics…

Do I like Lisa? Very. very, a whole bunch alot yes…

Speaking of hair, now for a story that even Lisa dosen’t know about….

It was Valentines day. I was worried about Lisa, because she had told me that her hair had been “ruined” by a stylist (it ends up that it wasn’t ruined, it was only like a millimeter shorter, but I didn’t know this). I was drunk. I was really drunk, and I was flipping out, I thought her hair got chopped off, like a foot of it or something and I started feeling bad, I was really really worried. I had a host of things I was stressing on at that moment, but I was actually rather concerned, and I wanted Lisa happy. If someone would have asked me what I wanted I would have responded…

“Lisa. Happy.”

I did what any man would do in such a situation.

I went to Walgreens.

“Where”, I asked the nice lady working at the counter, “are your crayons?”

She told me the aisle and I stumbled towards it, hoping desperately that there was also colored construction paper in the same aisle. Like I said I was drunk, I wasn’t sure at that point how many Walgreen aisles I could handle.

I bought crayons. I bought construction paper.

I took a cab home (I lived two blocks away but I really was drunk). Cab driver was ass. I tipped him bunches.

I entered my apartment, sure of my path. I must write to Lisa a crayon on construction paper story. Her hair is gone. She is sad. Must, using my enormous talent, create a smile for Lisa.

Here is the story that I never sent to her…

The story begins…

“For Lisa” it says, “A crayon Story”. “From Pat”

“Once upon a time there was a really huge big frog”

I brilliantly create a frog with nothing but colored wax and paper, and it is  so good, it is like I am God.

“One day the frog saw a fly”

“The huge ass frog smiled because he knew he would get some fly”

Frog goes for fly….

Uh oh…

WTF?

“OOOf”

“Long story short, the fly kicked the frogs ass”

“Happy frog gets his ass kicked by a fly Valentines day. ”

THE END

Not a clue what that means, but on a personal note, Lisa… Giorgia would have loved you. That’s why I like you so much

Happy bday pretty.
