Dear ,

Please allow me to take a moment to honor Martin Luther King Jr.

There’s little that I can say that is as poetic or as powerful as his “I Have A Dream” speech delivered on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.

Dr. King’s words are greater than anything most of us will ever write, not only in their sparse beauty but also in the power of what they accomplished.

What do these words mean for your marketing?

While asking this question may seem to make Dr. King’s words appear trite. The reality is that as a marketer, you must understand that the power of your words doesn’t depend on how many you use or how sophisticated they are.

Rather, it’s about how clearly you get your message across and encourage your audience to act.

Take the time to appreciate what’s important in your life.

Happy marketing,
Heidi Cohen
