Many new purchases force folks into new movements.
Movements depend on habits. Or is it the other way? Habits depend on movements.
Make a new move, feel good, make a new habit. That’s the challenge for start-ups.
Now how many moves can folks fit into their day?
Today in the mood to cleave the marketers into 2 groups:
Adjectivals
Non-adjectivals

There was that cringe word promoted quite a bit by Jockey: Athleisure.
What do we have now? Just checked an ad by Nibero calling its shorts ‘Fashleisure’.
Hello word-coiners, have some mercy! You can’t splash such funniness…
I have writing desks, both at home and at the studio. But my engagement with my mobile phone ensures that I don’t write in my notebook. Of course, I don’t like making lists normally, in spite of finding enormous merits in making lists. That said, when execution is intense and paramount, I become a thorough list-maker. Hydrogen fuel-cell. Mobility. Electronic coupling to harness power. Criminal History of Mankind by Colin Wilson. How lucid his writing is. Can read book after book after book. Next is Jose Saramago. This looks like a luscious prep. This way of writing non-paragraphedly.

Story-telling? Folks who don’t have one amazing message, one sharp change to talk about, go about store-telling?
Folks aren’t reading but folks are story-telling!
How does it work!
Skill is ‘being exact’ or ‘looking with sharpness’.
Story-telling in sounds (Youtube audio-video and the likes).
Story-telling in writing (Webpages and Linkedin essays and the likes).
Can we story-tell through Insta images?
No one can stop the abuse of these expressions. The time-sink these expressions open for careerists…
I read and hear many people say ‘D2C Brand’ in introducing or talking about certain businesses.
While showering just a while back, I asked myself, ‘What is a D2C Brand?’
When customers speak about a brand, do they utter these exact words, ‘D2C Brand’?
Conveniences in semantics and sentence-forming gives rise to such expressions and somehow many people adopt these and utter them naturally.
One doesn’t know when this little adoption of innocuous or exact-feeling expressions becomes a distortion, a barrier when opportunities to present a business arises.
What good is a D2C Brand for buyers and consumers? What good is it for you to utter that yours is a D2C Brand?
How many are reading and how many are writing for SEO?
That reminds me, I was reading a terrific book on reading before my June trip. Got to resume that. Reading.
The fight isn’t between brands. It is between categories.
And ‘what’s the category’ keeps changing.
To be among people
Coordinating their activities
Doesn’t quite motivate me
