What do the biggest brands and businesses have in common? They invest heavily in advertising. Yet, when we sit with small to medium size businesses they often resist going all in? I was biking with my 7 year old today and saw this ad is placed at a haunted hayride in the only “town” in Pennsylvania. I have so many questions! The first person to guess the only town in PA without googling it wins! #advertising #business #allin

Are you in the branded merch space and a member of NEPPA? Have you ever wondered how pursuing your passions could transform your personal and professional life? If so, join me at the New England Promotional Product Association (NEPPA) Winter Expo on January 27 in Hartford! Let me share a bit about my journey: "Balancing a career while caring for my father through his Alzheimer’s journey was the greatest burden—and the greatest blessing—of my life. Chronicling that experience in my book, Ten Days With Dad, ignited a passion for writing that transformed both my personal and professional life. The more I wrote, the more productive and focused I became at work, and my sales began to rise. Research supports what I experienced firsthand: pursuing passions fuels creativity, reduces burnout, and enhances performance." During my session, we’ll explore how making time for your passions—even in small ways—can: ✅ Spark creativity ✅ Boost focus and productivity ✅ Reduce stress and burnout ✅ Drive business success By integrating what you love into your daily routine, you’ll find greater happiness and even grow your bottom line. 📅 Date: January 27, 2025 🕘 Time: 9:00 AM 📍 Location: Sheraton Hartford South Hotel, Rocky Hill, CT 👉 Register Now: (Your company must be a member/affiliate of a Regional Association, PPAI, PPAI Qualified Non-member Distributor, SAGE, or ASI. For details, email [email protected].) I can’t wait to connect with you and show how passion projects can fuel success in all aspects of life. #PassionProjects #ProfessionalGrowth #PromotionalProducts #Leadership #Inspiration #NEPPA

You know I’m bullish on #local, so appreciated the #AWNewYork24 session on the power of local to complement national. As Steven DeMain of Locality describes - “Even for a national advertiser, if you look at all markets you can identify and which markets are underperforming …we might be able to make recommendations to help improve those on a market by market basis.” Any resistance, per Lauren Frank Hoops, of building a plan that features uniqueness of brand on per market basis might be that it feels daunting - it’s detailed - “but you can combine like markets and creative and start small. You don’t have to start with hyper local.”

Inspiration, ideas, and resources for marketing pros and business leaders ... That's what Maine-Stay 2024 is all about. I live in Maine. I travel to conferences to learn, find ideas, and keep up to date with the latest tips, trends, and strategies to help my business and my clients. But it's expensive to travel. And it's even more expensive when the conference you go to doesn't deliver as much value as you wanted. There's an opportunity cost to attending workshops, conferences, and other events that take you away from your daily work. So if you're going to consider stepping away from your core duties, you should feel confident that its worth doing so. And that's why we put so much effort into making damn sure the two day event we call Maine-Stay is more than just "time out of the office." We are passionate about loading it with practical and tactical tips along with experienced, inspirational presenters that will get your idea treadmill spinning. So who should consider attending Maine Stay 2024? ↳ Marketing pros who are juggling too many balls at once ↳ Business leaders looking for practical advice on how to stand out ↳ Anyone interested in learning how to use time and money effectively to help your marketing efforts be more consistent and profitable Check out what we're building for you at www.Maine-Stay.com
