Words matter.

Arrived in Providence, RI.

• Excited to see an old friend.
• Lunching at a palace!
• In Rhode Island, who knew?

Obviously I didn’t!

• Did a quick website check.
• Told my Facebook friends.
• Couldn’t wait!

Expecting supreme coolness…

• Cambodian cuisine.
• Mama cooking.
• Culture galore.

Instead I got a strip mall restaurant.

• Called a palace.
• Easy to drive by.
• (Thankfully it had fantastic food.)

Was I confused?

• Or maybe it was the neighborhood?
• Check out the promise of the laundromat next door.
• Laudry done in four minutes.

The marketer in me laughs…

Makes me think of chapter leaders…how do you get your members’ attention?
