Save yourself 20 hours next Christmas...
βPaper is to write things down that we need to remember. Our brains are used to think.β
-Albert Einstein
Most of you just wrapped on a big week. If you're reading in the future, today is December 29th - you do the math. π
I'm sure you spent lots of time and mental energy on your promotional materials: social media graphics, posters, billboards, emails, mass-mailing postcards, Facebook ads... the list goes on...
Well, how did it go?

In my time as a teacher, I learned the value of time spent reflecting on how a lesson played out. Reflection was the only way to make the lesson better next time.
β
...but I understand reflection sounds like homework if your brain can't empathize with future you.
β
So - imagine the Christmas 2024 version of you and, for his/her sake, try this handy tool I made:
β
β Type in your written reflections - what worked? what didn't?
β Add any attachments you'd like to reference next year
β Add any links you'd like to reference next year
β Pick a date in the future when you'd like to receive an email containing all of the above
β
It's an easy way to capture everything while it's still fresh in your mind. Then, you can let my friendly robot remember the details. He'll only appear in your inbox when you ask him to. π€
Try it! π

This isn't just for Christmas. Use this tool whenever you wrap a big event. Bookmark it on my new website (subtle self-promo π).
I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas. Happy New Year!

If your brand does not have defined font styles and you're hoping to become a little more consistent, this might be a great place to start. Here are five of my favorite free typefaces, suggestions for how to use them, and a handy tip for getting your sizing just...
Let's dive into a crash course on all things domains. Boring? Maybe. Likely to be useful to you at some point down the road? Definitely! First, what's a domain? A domain is a fancy name for your URLβor the link to the homepage of your website. It's also what your custom emails would live on. Ex: churchname.com, principal@schoolname.com Domains typically cost between $20 and $40 per year to maintain ownership. Pretty cheap. For this reason, people will commonly buy the .com, .org, and .net...
