It’s been a long time since I last posted something here. After that fact came up in conversation the other day, I thought it best to confirm that this blog is not dead. I haven’t abandoned it; I just haven’t been motivated. I could blame it on the blah weather we’ve had lately (except for this weekend, which I’m hoping isn’t a cruel joke!) or my crazy schedule as of late. But the truth is, I haven’t really been interested in any recent marketing topic lately. In reviewing some of my previous posts, I’ve found that even with the best of intentions, my posts have started to slide into my personal life. I really wanted to focus this blog on the field of marketing and pr, given my position in the professional world. However, I find my personal life much more interesting. I’m not bragging, but it’s full of great stories. And since my entire family is 2000 miles away, this will give them something besides a phone call to keep up.
I don’t plan to abandon the marketing world for good. I just want this blog to live up to its title and become a random collection of stories that reflect me and who I am as a person. I do also stay involved in the marketing and pr side of things through my tweets (@uncgrl84) and by posting comments on several trade publications. On a related note, check out my take on the downfall of marketing in the current economic situation and my plan B.
I’m hopeful that this change of course will keep me more involved, more focused and more interesting. Let me know what you think!
