Marketing tip of the week: a brisk walk can get the heart pumpin’ and the ideas flowin’
Spring is just around the corner and as the seasons change, we’ll start to see more and more nice weather.
Temps actually reached 50 degrees in my neck of the woods today, so I strapped my daughter into her stroller and headed out for a nice walk around the neighborhood.

As we walked, I let my brain wander and, without even meaning to, stumbled across a great idea for my business, which led to some great ideas for my marketing materials.
I was so excited that I could hardly wait to get home and get my thoughts into writing.
If you decide to use this tip, just be sure to bring along a notebook to jot down random thoughts before they slip away unnoticed.
So the next time you’re feeling stumped, throw on some comfy shoes and hit the streets, a nearby walking trail, whatever will get you moving. A technique that promotes a healthy body and a healthy business? Gotta love it!
