Fat Tuesday

The entire team is out in beautiful, sunny Hoffman Estates (my home, away from home, away from home) going through some last minute tweaks and run throughs for tomorrow's final presentation to the clients. We're very excited to wow them with some brilliant ideas and collaborative thinking (thanks again to all that contributed), as well as our charm and good looks... well, Alan's charm and my good looks only get us so far... Jeff helps balance us out!

Why is the title of this post Fat Tuesday, you may ask? Because we've eaten so well (and so much!) that collectively, we've gained 100 pounds... yes Francis, I'm off the wagon... but I'm heading to the gym now to sweat out all the booze, meat, booze, chips, sandwiches, booze, pizza, and booze that we've been consuming so I can feel at least somewhat healthy... when we saw fruit the other night at restaurant, Alan asked "What's that?"

Looking forward to posting an update to all tomorrow.... Cheers!

good luck boys!

my contribution - consumer direct. If it can work from a consumer package good angle (from the grocery store), why couldn't you collect the same data on your own clients and cross-reference it with the products they are buying - would make buying online media waste-free and could target marginal consumers with coupon creative...also, would Acerno work for them?
