What’s a topic or issue about which you’ve changed your mind?

I’m sure that title pissed some folks off.

It is what it is. Now, why would I say that?

Simply put: Business is earned by value, variety, customer service and experiences shared. Not by unearned “valor” or guilt marketing.

I’ve opened my eyes to my own shortcomings in pushing that narrative. Compromise and compliance due to paychecks. HUGE mistakes.

Never again though.

Regardless of where you or I are on this planet, if we’re engaging with our fellow humans in the realm of commerce and exchange of money for goods and services WE have to find and believe in the aforementioned traits of a good business. Period. No amount of marketing jargon and dare I say bullshit, is going to change that.

Let the fur fly, dear reader. We can chat more about all of that later. Currently I’m working on my own variety, quality, value packed and planned showmanship / customer service experiences for my next live event (Poke Ween, October 25 & 26).

Because I have to earn it. No matter where you and I meet.

Now, Go Play!
