First and Goal!

A new menu rollout or promotion for Hooters (Hootwinc, based in Vista CA) means getting a lot of information out and "down the line" in a timely manner. With JRM's help, they've discovered that video, over memos, emails or manuals, wins the toss for "calling the play," letting the team know "the call" and "executing to score big" with every client walking through the door. Here's an example.

A Hole in One!

Here's an example of how a fun activity, like Golf, at a corporate meeting can be "teed" up to create "above par" montages and take-away videos for attendees. This was shot for a Marie Callender's General Managers Meeting where, as you'll see, there were some amazing shots made!

200+ Years and Still Brewing!

Latis Imports of Ridgefield, Connecticut has been importing some of Belgiums finest beers and wants to make sure America's beer lovers know all about it. Thank you, Leslie Liberatore of HotSkillet Productions, Utah for asking JRM to produce "The Craft Beers News" podcast for your client. In episode one, owner Jan Toye of Palm Brewery gives us a look at the history of Belgiums famous beers his family has been turning out since 1747! (Really enjoyed the first hand research work on this project, burp.....)

Wanna get away?

Absolutely yes. And the last time I did in a big way was last September. It was on the day that "the stock markets crashed and Wall St fell into the dumper." as the radio reported before I turned it off not to be distracted from the adventure awaiting me.

And then for the next 11 days and 50mi. while things began their plunge downward, I walked, climbed, and scrambled upward hiking the back country of the high Sierra Nevada mountains. With me were a few great fellows who all share that same feeling: "Sometimes, you just gotta get away!" Most of them seasoned veterans, I'm a relative neophyte having started only 2 years ago. But now I'm hooked. It was glorious, grueling, exhausting, exhilarating and a host of other adjectives that had never fit so well in describing anything else I've done in my life. Can't wait to do it again this year! Have a glimpse. And remember, "Leave no trace!"
