So so overdue. I apologize for getting lazy about writing! A lot has changed in the last 6 months; I finished my contract as business manager and moved full time into my own photo/video business. I closed up shop in Atlanta, and moved to Vail, CO. (at least for the ski season) The beauty of this business is that if you have to start over, you can really do it anywhere. So, with that, I set the scene for future posts…
I’ve moved to a new town, full of locals and seasonal tourists. I’m going in about 10 directions professionally trying to see what sticks, what’s lucrative, and what feeds the soul…(and as we all know, those rarely line up) My marketing strategy right now is what I’d like to talk about in the next post… I call it “Guerrilla Marketing.” How do you drum up business in a town you don’t know, from people who have no clue you exist — selling a product or service that they’re not sure they need…in a downturn economy… Oh yeah! I’m going to need to bring out the big guns…hence, “Guerrilla Mktg!”
stay tuned…

Congrats on the major life changes! Looking forward to your next post. I just did the exact same thing earlier this year with my move to Detroit. It’s an experience for sure.
