Eureka!

When everything seems like its falling apart, that 'ding' moment when it all comes together again. Individual inspiration and motivation strikes, or a friend puts the lightbulb above your head.   


Hope you had a 'ding' moment today, if its not today, hang in there, it will come. Don't reduce your own carbon footprint, keep the lights on. (I thought it was a pretty cool line)

Welcome to the Start of the Journey!

Hi Cyberspace!

Welcome to the InnovCloud, just a Marketing student from Sydney in his final year trying to make his way in the world.


In between finding graduate jobs, assignments and trying to keep everything together it is hard to be inspired. To hold onto some hope, happiness, what will be my destiny at the end of this year?  


Let my Cloud be your inspiration sanctuary. Hopefully we can share this experience together with the uncertainty of the year ahead. 


I want to share my thoughts, my aspirations, my feelings and hopefully you will join me as a developing marketing innovator trying to find his way in the world. I apologise for the crudity of my blog (time constraints!), but hopefully my message will not be lost.

I believe that this week, the following Marketing Assessment Centres are taking place:





British American
Tobacco 


(Let's not get into a morality argument, but here is a marketer's argument, there is a product (FMCG), they have a target market, strong utilisation of distribution channels and a track record for creative innovation in marketing and promotions + their social responsibility initiatives are second to none)





    
    Mars Australia 
    
    
(Not their 'official' corporate logo, but god I love Mars Bars)       





Good luck to anyone attending these!

Organisation is critical. But how does one stay inspired? I stay motivated and inspired by "moments". Looking forward to the moment I am in my multi-million dollar apartment with an infinity pool (see below heh). The moment I have launched a multi-million dollar marketing campaign and look up at a billboard and say "I came up with that". That is what I aspire for.


My "Infinity Pool Moment" without the sex change


I know money and business success isn't everyone's motivator, but what is your infinity pool? Your moment? What keeps you going when you feel the chips are down? If you don't have one, make one! It could be winning that season championship, finishing that woodwork project, finding a loved one, or finishing that final quest in an (insert generic MMORPG) hehe ANYTHING!


I will leave that as my first post. I hope to furnish you with my endeavours, dreams and inspirations and hopefully you can find your way in the world too.
