 Ahh, summer time. The sun is shining, the smell of barbeques are in the air and the kids are out of school. (Yay!?)
Like most of our clients, The Good Group is a small business and our laptops & smartphones rarely stay home on any trip. That doesn't mean spending all our vacation time working, it just means "The Buck Stops Here" and we've got to be prepared.
As you venture into your summer plans this year, don't forget that ADVERTISING DOES NOT TAKE A VACATION. We are here to help you continue in business mode.
Although things slow down in summer, they by no means stop. Neither can your business. Don't get caught behind the eight ball when autumn arrives! July is planning time for that September New Year!
Enjoy the shore, the mountains, an island, or any other plans you have this summer. If you need marketing help, don't hesitate to contact us!
Have a 'good' and safe summer!

Did You Know...
"The Great Barbecue" refers to the decade after the Civil War, which was filled with corruption.
"Barbecue" derives ultimately from the word barabicu found in the language of both the Timucua of Florida and the Taíno people of the Caribbean, which then entered European languages in the form barbacoa. The word translates as "sacred fire pit."
May is Barbecue Month and the most popular holidays for barbecuing are, in order, July 4th (71 percent), Memorial Day (57 percent), and Labor Day (55 percent).
Competition barbecuing is one of the hottest hobbies in the country with hundreds of cook--offs held throughout all 50 states. The biggest and most famous are Memphis in May and The American Royal in Kansas City. Both cities stake their claim to being the barbecue capital of the U.S.
 'Hot Dog' Origins - The popular sausage (once known as "dachshund" or the "little-dog" sausage) was created in the late 1600's by Johann Georghehner, a butcher living in Coburg, Germany. It is said that he later traveled to Frankfurt to promote his new product (the Frankfurter).
