 A counselor once told me, "you can play it safe but life can be boring"- taking a risk, mixing up the norm and trying something new brings color and excitement each day. For businesses, doing the same thing the same way is a rut, and a rut is a "grave with the ends kicked out."

Look for ways to change your processes, ask:

  • Who you are presenting your solutions to?
  • What you are offering that's unique today?
  • Where are you showing up or offering solutions?
  • When are you in touch, their best time or yours?
  • How you engage your clients, in person, email, virtual or?

For me, I like to try new foods- like eating the whole fish, bones and all- brings great fun, wonderful looks and special interactions- step back and reflect on the last risky, challenging thing you have done and look for another this week!

ECO IS HOT! According to industry surveys, 45% of consumers in the 11 Western states have a stronger impression of advertisers who use and promote environmentally friendly products. *                   It's not like the "old days" when eco products were scratchy, poor quality and unappealing.
 Sometimes life feels like speedway bikes, 0-60mph in 3 seconds, with NO BRAKES! Part of being successful in business and life in general, is to not let the rush overwhelm you that you lose sight of the goal, that you miss the journey as well. Coach John Wooden said it best, "Be quick but don't hurry"  It's summer, lot of great opportunities ahead, kick it into gear and enjoy the ride!
It's the holiday season and the bad guys are hard at work and the costs get pushed to all of us! How much less expensive would products be without the fraud and counterfeiting (not including the salaries of the 15,000 employees they hire to fight this crime). One of the recent crazy stories is those who figured they could clone the Promotional Products Industries 2023 Product of the Year-  Knockoff Stanley Tumblers As we move into the season, and into 2025, this is a great reminder to choose your providers carefully, purchase from known reputable suppliers who are committed to you and your good will-  Be reminded that "if it seems too good to be true, it probably is."   Say no and move on to a better and safer provider. Wishing you a blessed Merry Christmas and a successful New Year!
