Do you feel, sometimes, like there’s lightning crackling all around you, great ideas that flash into your resale shopkeeper brain…
and just as quickly fade away?
And then, when you need to come up with a clever idea, a nifty solution or a unique promotional idea in your consignment shop…you’re looking at a dreary drizzle with no spark in it?
“Electricity is really just organized lightning.” George Carlin said it. Taking retail tips from a comedian is kinda weird but. Still.
When you have a brilliant flash, organize it into your shop’s branding. Don’t let an inspiration crackle away into the horizon. Harness your energy!
Sometimes I feel like Jove at Too Good to be Threw and HowToConsign.com … tossing ideas around…zapping people…temporarily frying minds with lightning-bolt inspirations. Maybe I ought to get a generator to store them in. Oh, I forgot, I do. Index cards. Humble solution but a very workable one. Try ’em…they can harness your brilliant insights and flashes of fire for firin’ up the engine of commerce at times when your electricity seems a bit, well, dim.
