Spring Means Tons of Stuff
Man things are going well right now. So well that I am not spending much time looking for items to post on the blog. Instead, I’ve been writing articles for the Office Nomads to use to promote their business on work-life balance. Finding, and maintaining that balance is near impossible in today’s go-go-go world so it was really eye opening to look into that topic. I’m happy with the advice we came up with and encourage you to read the article.
I also had the opportunity to take part in a branding workshop with SCAN Community Access Media. SCAN is Seattle’s community access cable channel. You know, that anything-goes channel where you can watch Bong Hit Championships, bad local bands, and late-night topless talk shows. Well, in a few years SCAN has to become financially self sufficient and is changing its business model. One day soon, the shows will be moderated, they will add a ton of community-created and supporting content to the SCAN site and, of course, the whole thing is being re-branded.
It was so inspiring to spend the day talking about the goals of a media outlet with 13 people dedicated to the concept of locally produced media and ultra-local reporting. Not only that, but I also got to learn a lot about how to create a brand and how to deliver your business’ message, so the day benefitted us all.
That’s only a small part of what I’ve been working on over the past few weeks. I’ve been planning a fund raiser with some friends to support the efforts of Mercy Corps in Darfur, met a bunch of great indy business owners and may soon be adding one or two of them to my client list as well as writing for Seattlest and all the other publications and sites I work with.
Man, I love spring.
