Q1 2010 is now in the record books. It moved fast and there was no shortage of challenges and cheers. In the first three months we have witnessed historical moments, the launch of a good product with a bad name, and natural disasters that united and divided us.
It was non-stop news as we closed out the quarter. Erykah Badu got naked, which may lead to her being clothed in an orange jumpsuit. Nestle had a fan smackdown and then found themselves in a little brand on brand violence (h/t to @caff for the term), Toyota accelerated and Oprah settled. Yes folks, there was no shortage of stories about brands gone wild, but Heather Villa reminds us we have to suck to be successful.
Judging by the start of the year, we’re in for quite a ride! Are you ready for Q2?

Hey Karen,
It’s going great so far thanks. Had my first round of vaccinations today. I feel like a pin cushion 🙂
Fundraising is well on target which is great. Given the opportunity to be generous, people can really surprise you.
The guitar will be coming too. Better learn some songs to sing with the kids!

Hi and Happy April everyone!
Andrew – you are so right, as I looked back I could have filled a book with all that happened! It’s been particularly eventful in the world of PR and Branding. No shortage of blogging topics!
Lillie – my head is still spinning! I can hardly believe we have already lived through the first 3 months of the year. I feel like I need to take a couple of days and just breathe and catch up!
Heather – warning, time moves even faster as you grow older! Lol!
Meryl – Lol, it took me 10 mins online to get pranked! Ha! I’m ready too, I love this time of year!
Conor – whoo hoo!!! I love your attitude! How is the planning and fundraising going for your mission trip?

Karen,
How can so much have happened when the year just started? I can’t believe the first quarter is already gone.

Karen,
An interesting start to the year. Whilst we don’t know what might happen throughout the rest of the year, one thing is certain – there will be plenty of drama for bloggers to chew on.
Happy Easter.
