In our weekly staff meetings we have an item on the agenda, “Show and Tell.” It’s our little trip back to elementary school, and an opportunity to talk about great things going on in the world of advertising, marketing, web development, and design. In the meeting today I brought up Old Spice “Manmercials.” I think [...]

BOO!
For those of you not familiar with Paul Thomas, he is a kick-butt designer, photographer, and web developer; and luckily for us, he has been with GCI for a little more than a year now. Follow Paul’s lead and you’ll have the bad-economy monster running scared: 1) Reinvent yourself as needed. You are so much [...]
Don’t Wear White!

Golly Gee
Did everyone see the cute smart nerdy little money pig in the “g-whiz” e-blast we sent out today?? I think all of the lucky ducks who did would have to agree that it was super adorable. GCI sends out great e-blast messages. If you’re not on the e-mail list and want to be (since it’s [...]

This morning I was sitting at my computer working… or trying to. I was having a lot of trouble focusing. I mentioned to Paul that I was feeling “ADD”. This afternoon I thought about grabbing my 7th stick of gum for the day (I had almost a pack yesterday too)… needless to say, gum is [...]
