My favorite day on my most recent vacation was the day we got lost. We had an idea of what we wanted to do but we made a wrong turn. Instead of worrying about it we simply embraced the chaos. We stumbled upon a great art exhibit and a delicious restaurant.
The lesson from that day came back to my business with me.  I have very specific goals and clear outline of what I want to do on a regular basis but I decided to embrace a little chaos.  I  spent some time exploring lots of new things I hadn't planned on including in my marketing.  Many of them were wastes of time but a few are actually starting to pan out .
So I really want to encourage you to have your map for your business and then spend a little time getting lost.

More than a Few Words - A Marketing Conversation is a smart, down-to-earth show about what’s really working in marketing and what isn’t.  All in about 10 minutes. 

Every week, Lorraine Ball sits down with marketers, entrepreneurs, and the occasional mischief-maker.  Some are seasoned pros. Others are figuring it out as they go. But all of them share tips you can use. And stories you won’t hear anywhere else.

No fluff, no jargon, just real-world lessons, actionable ideas, and a peek behind the curtain of what actually works.

What You’ll Hear:
• Real talk with real experts—marketers, creatives, business owners who’ve been in the trenches.
• Marketing strategies you can actually use—no jargon, no gatekeeping.
• Encouragement without the ego—especially for women building bold businesses on their own terms.
• A mix of wit, wisdom, and the occasional marketing metaphor—because learning should feel like a good conversation, not a lecture.

We’ll unpack what’s working, what’s not, and what’s changing in the digital marketing world so you can spend less time guessing and more time growing.

Whether you’re growing a brand from your kitchen table or the corner office, you’ll find ideas, inspiration, and a few laughs along the way.
