They're a gift that lasts forever, because your friend will remember what they learned and how they felt... and they can keep it on their bookshelf or hard drive as a reminder in case they forget...

Turning thoughts into words sharpens reasoning. What's fuzzy in your head is clear on the page.
"I'm not a writer" shouldn't stop you from writing. Writing is a tool for thinking.
The challenge of excess capacity
Marketing as we know it happened because of machines. Machines made factories dramatically more efficient, which meant that producers could no longer easily sell everything they made. When you go from making four ceramic plates a day to 4,000, your capacity starts…
Is there a market(place)?
Not all needs have a market (yet). A market is a category. A market is a place with competition. In a market, people have habits and budgets and social pressure to engage. There are buyers and sellers. In many cultures, there's a market for all the items that go with a…

Not all needs have a market (yet). A market is a category. A market is a place with competition. In a market, people have habits and budgets and social pressure to engage. There are buyers and sellers. In many cultures, there's a market for all the items that go with a quinceanera, a birthday party for a 15-year-old girl.

Shout out to our supporters, small-dollar contributors, and volunteers who make all this happen and help us support similar efforts across the country.
I am really grateful. ♥️ Thank you
