Tom Ski is back to talk about what he has going lately with the magazines - travel business, fly fishing, hosted trips, SEO and social stuff. Find out Tom's role in Tail and Strung Magazine - how he makes their content more relevant and interesting. We learn some SEO and social tips that get more traffic to your website and engage more people.
Tom also talks about his setup when he goes hiking or outdoors with leggings and sandals as his preference. This one's a little random and all over the place but I hope you enjoy where it takes us.
