What Box?

For years now, a popular expression for free thinking and trying new ideas has been "thinking outside the box." But what if you don't start with a box?

Abracadabra, poof! No box.

Now just think. Everything's in play.

Tried it before and it didn't work. Might it work now?

Used it in a different market. Might it work here? Now?

Worked fine every time we used it. Time to use it again?

Then, on to the new, crazy, wild ideas. Don't worry about them at first. Just let them flow.

Give everything a hearing. Then, you can begin to evaluate each idea based on feasibility, resources available and required, cost, budget, and projected reach and effectiveness.

Have a great 2009. Remember, no box!
