5 years ago today I started my career with Mackie! It has been an incredible experience that has allowed me to work in the industries I am most passionate about, while exploring creative concepts, and putting real world strategy behind our approach. I'm always excited about what's next, and how we can continue to improve and raise the bar.

If you want to understand the mission of St. Peter's Pub, 1/2 of it is in response to this: the breakdown of community friendships. (The other 1/2 is spiritual growth.) Check out this trailer to a documentary based on the Robert Putnam book, "Bowling Alone." It hits the nail on the head.
Wonderful and uplifting #brandstorytelling done here by Brooks Running. The #buildingblocks are right here for all of you #marketing and #brandedcontent folks wanting to do this work more (or better).
1. Know your own values you want to communicate (and know your customers).
2. Find compelling characters with a unique POV (need not be a celebrity!).
3. Create stakes. People need to care about what happens.
Watch this video. Who really made this play happen?
This video came to me recently of a great play that happened 40 years ago in 1984. Two of my Gator teammates made this play that broke the game wide open in our favor.
However, the average fan was oblivious of all that took place among those five offensive linemen in front of the quarterback which made the play possible. I was down in middle of that mass of humanity 40 years ago (Number #60 offensive guard)
The offensive line must block and protect so that an offensive play can be executed. A game is usually won down in the trenches in a violent interaction between the offensive and defensive fronts. The offensive lineman doesn’t have any stats and fans are not cheering for them individually as you see in this video clip. The only recognition is from his coaches, teammates and some media who understands the lineman’s role.
His job is to make other players look good without the spotlight! It’s a selfless mindset that the fraternity of offensive linemen take pride in helping others get the accolades on the team. How would this same mindset affect your business, organization, department, church, or in a home? Someone has said, “The credit is immaterial as long as the cause is advanced.”
So my question is, have you stop and thanked the “offensive linemen types” that are in your life? Who are the people that work behind-the-scenes and go unnoticed? Take a moment of time and express your gratitude to them.
Most likely they are not looking for any recognition or praise but just doing their job well is satisfaction enough.
A sincere “Thank you” from you will go a long way.
It still doesn’t cost anything to be nice!
