Behind the Drive
So this is happening...
The thought of going to Hawaii in June for our anniversary, competing in an IRONMAN event with my wife, and kickstarting the training to complete one of my biggest goals (complete a full IRONMAN) is making me a little giddy smile emoticon
Enough to build a website in the middle of the night and start a campaign to boost our exposure for:
- Accountability. By going public with our plans, we are now subject to our word, and thus held accountable by the almighty Facebook.
- Motivation. My desire is to spark some sort of motivation through all of this. Whether that is us finding motivation from you, or the other way around.
- Followers. Let's be honest. The only people blasting social media are the ones looking for an audience. That is the whole idea behind our online networks. Who can I engage with? Who will support me? How can I encourage others? Other than sharing life updates with family, social media is a personal branding breeding zone.
As someone in the marketing industry, I am excited about what social media offers to individuals and brands alike. We have the opportunity to promote and market ourselves, and in this case our goals, FOR FREE! Why not take hold of this opportunity and do everything to fullest.
Thank you for taking the time to check out our new venture!
