For some reason, I always find myself looking at things from a marketing perspective where ever I go. I could be in the grocery store, at Cold Stone (shhh!), or even just driving and see a bill board and I get inspired. Sunday night was no different. I came home and jotted a few notes down that have turned into this post.
