Mindful Marketing for a Digital Age

The Backstory

A few years ago, I had a pivotal conversation with an industry colleague. I had always been a follower of what I thought was the “right thing to do”, tracing others’ footsteps, waiting for direction. As some major life changes unfolded, I decided on a new approach: wave first.

As an example, I like to walk. I live in a friendly neighborhood. When a neighbor drove by, I would wait for them to acknowledge me. And then it hit me–why not wave first? Make the first move and ignite positivity. There’s nothing to lose and only to gain. You are what you put out there, and I believe the good work you do is worth sharing. Like a ripple in water, generating good energy radiates out.

Secondly, I’m a closet surfer. I’m innately drawn to bodies of water and have always relished the sense of connection to the rhythm of the water I feel when sailing, swimming, and paddling.

Surfing is about flowing with the power of nature. But it’s not passive. A skilled surfer reads a good wave and actively uses her agility and ability to ride the momentum to go fast and far, and feel connected.

Social media and online marketing is all about connecting people through feelings. And, ever present trends in the marketing world move in waves. Together we’ll sense the flow and catch that first wave to be relevant, relatable, and engaging in your marketing to the wider world.

In fact, let’s go one step further and find your blue ocean. Ask me about that when we talk!

So join me. Let’s wave first.
