When I was growing up and felt like quitting, my mother, Bernice, used to say:
“Don’t quit. You’re one f-ck-it away from reaching your goal.”
She was right.
And 30 years later, I’m still in business because I learned how to stay with an idea long enough to pivot, fix what didn’t work, learn from the mistakes, and keep going when quitting would have been easier.
Sometimes one ridiculous line from your mother becomes a business philosophy. And in honor of her, I created Motivational Mints because sometimes people need a tiny kick in the ass -- and a breath mint at the same time.😁
Not only are they great client gifts, they're they carry the kind of quote, phrase, reminder, inside joke, brand line, or rallying cry that makes people smile, remember you, and maybe keep going when they’re one bad day away from quitting.
And now I help clients create them, too.
Because branded merch doesn't always need to be another notebook, mug, pen, or forgettable giveaway. Sometimes it needs to be something small, useful, funny, personal, and easy to keep close.
A custom mint tin can hold your quote, your idea, your one-of-a-kind saying, your campaign message, your client reminder, or the phrase your audience already associates with you.
In other words:
Put your brand on the tip of their tongue. Literally.
Bring your idea. I’ll help you figure out what it could become.
