I haven’t posted anything for a while because I’ve been busy living my real life.
That’s the life I have that’s actual not virtual.
My real life includes spending time with my family > my son is starting his 1st year of high school (that’s what we call it here in Australia,) and there were text books and stationery and uniforms to buy … oh and a digital tablet too! Cost a lot of money.
He’s full of anticipation and some nerves I guess. We’re happy and sad hoping to hang on to our little guy for a while longer before he thinks we’re total freaks.
Meanwhile, I’m checking emails and the emails that communicate new posts from Facebook, blogs I follow, tweets from Twitter.
Made me want to SCREAM…
Too much now. Way too much.
As a marketer or a communicator both in the business and personal worlds … give us all a break.
Ask yourself:
Is this relevant?
Will it piss people off? (pardon me)
Does it add any value?
Like in sales, know when to shut up. Don’t oversell after you’ve heard those words, ‘I’ll take it.’
Just smile and start gift wrapping.
In the real world, we have real lives to live too.
Don’t we?
