When I started writing Marty’s Minutes, I challenged my team to start writing their thoughts as well. And let me tell you, I have been blown away by what the team has come up with. To round the year out, I’ve been sharing some of my favorite a-Minutes from the team. Here’s one from Mary Devine. I think this is a great way to close out 2021 and start looking forward to 2022!

I’m a big Seth Godin fan. I’ve shared some insights from him in previous a-Minutes. He captures complex ideas and explains them so well.
Last year, Seth wrote a blog post that I loved. And guess how many words it was? Less than 75. That’s all it took for him to share some great wisdom about growing. I want to share Seth’s blog with you to challenge you to grow this year.
Ways to grow
A checklist to get you started—you can either do the same thing or a different thing…
More of the same
Persist
Get the word out
Doing something different: Change an element of what you do
Raise your prices
Lower your prices
Make it better
Tell a different story
Serve a different customer
Enter a new segment
Change the downstream effects of your work
Earn trust
Make bigger promises
Organize
So, are you going to do more of the same or start doing something different? In the New Year, I want to do things like I’ve never done before and challenge myself to grow in new ways. I hope you’ll do the same!
Until next time…we are Advoco, make every minute count.
