Hi Reader,
I hope your Thanksgiving was a great time with family and/or friends. I spent a whole week with my daughter's family, sleeping on an air mattress and playing with Bradley, my first (and only) grandson. I loved every minute of it. He is a bundle of happiness and energy and spends all day laughing, playing and exploring.
I thought I would share a photo of me, Brendon and little Bradley who fell asleep watching his favorite movie, Encanto!
I thought I would also share with you that I am creating a new YouTube playlist called "Byte-Sized Learning about Digital Marketing."
These videos are informative and to the point. Most will be about 5 minutes and never more than 15 minutes. I posted my intro video and my first Byte-Sized learning video, "Understanding the 3 Forms of Media Available in Digital Marketing."
If you post comments and questions to my YouTube channel, I will read them and create videos to answer your questions. Enjoy!
