“Life is Good” – a Case Study – Lessons in Soulful Marketing
Another fun Soulful Marketing Principles case study for you. This company has been my go-to for t-shirts for at least the last 15 years. I have over 30 of their t-shirts, from long sleeves to short sleeves to tank tops. And it’s not just because I love their fun designs, it’s also because it’s THE MOST comfortable cotton t-shirt I’ve ever worn. And the same size ALWAYS fits me. Then there’s the ultra reason I love them because they created a brand and a community I absolutely connect with.

In the throes of crazy town…
It’s launch week for me and my major client. All I can say is yowza, I totally forgot how zainy launch life can be. This launch has sooo many moving parts and is complicated. Yet, that’s what I do best. 🙂 So then, why do I feel like I’m in the throes of crazy town? It’s interesting as I unpack it in my head. It’s been a while since I’ve done a big launch like this with so many moving parts. (Actually, it’s going to make a terrific case study!) And I’m also working with a team that I haven’t worked with since their last launch back in 2018. So…
