Happy 4th of July (and what’s coming soon)

For those of you in America, it’s a holiday week. And for a country recently obsessed with preserving tradition and a way of life, it’s peculiar to really look at the history.

Because this country is really rooted, not in the past, but in newness. A new country, a new form of government. An idea in a few people’s heads that eventually became reality.

And that is something that us entrepreneurs know a little something about. Ideas and hope for the future. A belief in looking forward.

Isn’t that why we build brands? To do things are own way?

And building sometimes requires rest. Sometimes to play the long game requires stepping out of the hustle. And in that spirit, all of us here at Creative Voices are taking the week off.

And I hope wherever you are, whether you are celebrating a holiday or not, you find time for rest too. And maybe some summertime watermelon :)

A quick look at what’s coming your way over the next few months…

• We just finished filming our guest lecture series last week. A series of experts each teaching a lesson on key parts throughout the spectrum of the brand building process. Coming to YouTube in August.

• A new series is currently coming to life about the state of work right now — how work has changed over the decades and ways in which its affecting our daily lives. This is going to be an ongoing project where we continually add stories and films over time. Look for the first installments coming soon.

• Perhaps most exciting of all, we have an entirely new course currently in production. Want to learn every step of the brand building process on your own time? We want to give you all the tools you need to build a beautiful, powerful brand on your own terms. Coming late fall.
