This month is the fifth anniversary of MarketingforHippies.com
Five years ago this month, I had a website at TadHargrave.com.
It had a photo of me on it that nobody liked. It was hard and expensive to make changes and I grew more and more embarrassed about it. And no, I’m not showing it to you.
Then I met my dear friend and colleague Jaime Almond who, appalled by said photo and website, forced me to sit down with her over the phone and create a new website on wordpress.
And MarketingforHippies.com was born.
Creating this new website allowed me to move over my old blogspot blog posts and all of my youtube videos and put them in one place. It allowed me to feel proud of my business again. It has been the single best investment I’ve ever made in my business.
Up until I had my current website, my business was called Radical Business (a name I sort of liked but never really cared about) but when people would ask me what I did, I would say, “I do marketing for hippies.” And they would laugh but I didn’t think much of it. Until one day I thought, “Maybe I should call my business that.” That funny little name has been a big blessing to me.
And, somehow, it’s five years later and I wanted to express my gratitude with two gifts.
