This is the most amusing man I have come across since the worst person in the world.
He’s worked his way up from ‘managing’ a restaurant to running his own media agency, dealing with everything from PR and TV presenting to online advertising, journalism and quite horrifically, web design.
According to his website, ‘Only time will tell, what is next for Greg Tingle and his team, but rest assured that Media Man Australia will remain in the media spotlight, and its full impact has yet to be experienced.’
The CV is particularly impressive, including such gems as:
‘Receive e-mails of appreciation from clients’
In his later career this progresses to:
‘Receive e-mails and telephone calls of appreciation from clients’
I can only dream of being able to write this on my CV one day.
The ‘testimonials’ section lists some excellent quotes from people he has known throughout his career. Has he travelled through life carrying a notebook of ‘Things people have said about me’? We can but wonder.
“I would thoroughly support him” Dennis Heffernan, Head Teacher, Communication and Media Studies, TAFE
“you should do very well in the media” “Big” Tim Bristow, Private Investigator
Plus it’s great to know that ‘additional testimonials are available’, just in case the twenty-odd he’s already listed aren’t enough.
The guy is probably great at what he does but from this eyeball-torturing website he seems like another self-proclaimed paragon of PR that ironically fails at portraying themselves in a good light (much like my amusing interview at itpr). Perhaps I’m just jealous, as he clearly has a talent for self-belief and self-promotion that I lack entirely.
