  • Awkward Acting with Lila Smith: Say Things Better

    With a background in acting, Lila Smith has learned not only how to say things with more flair, but also to help you use your words to "Say Things Better" as you will learn about in this episode.

    Ever feel like you’re playing a character? Maybe your words don’t feel like your own. Maybe your whole life feels like someone else wrote it.

    Well, we aren’t characters, but we can use human character analysis tools (like YouMap®) to remember who we are or discover ourselves for the first time.

    She did.

    Then she realized- more than one tool works offstage.

    Story visualization motivates us.

    Improv teaches collaboration.

    Stanislavsky’s System clarifies objectives.

    Meisner’s work makes good listeners.

    Adler’s “Actioning” names HOW we make others feel.

    Forakis’ OTOA organizes our thoughts.

    Actually, everything that creates dramatic conflict can be reverse engineered to create connection!

    So Lila did that, creating the Say Things Better Method of Intentional Communication.

    Today, her highly interactive workshops have earned rave reviews from partners like Merck, Acuity Brands, the Dallas Mavericks, the University of Miami, Zoho, and Fannie Mae.

  • Awkward Locals with Tim Marlowe: BD Local

    Tim Marlowe is all about local! Think of this as a way to give the power back to the local community. SMART Advertisement’s plan to stay active and involved with communities in order to help impact the masses has already started. We have created the application, BD Local (Backseat Driver), which will be the platform that allows our local small business owners to thrive during a recession. BD Local will have well over 100,000 downloads one day in your area, now giving our “Mom and Pop” shops awareness, where as only household names like, Best Buy, Starbucks, and Coca Cola, could only afford. The locals will create this app with us by referring their friends, families, and favorite hot spots in the local community. This is giving the locals an edge over living anywhere else in the world because this has never been done before. Having the community see places they referred and rewarded for it, gives us a competitive edge over our competition by allowing the locals to have a voice.  This is where we are disrupting the industry first, here in Tacoma. Join in on our BD Local: Podcast Series for more on local events and businesses.
