Redefining Kitchen Design While Improving Health and Wellness
September 17th at 12 pm Central Time
Whether you are taking this course in 2020 or beyond, you have lived through an unprecedented global pandemic that has changed how we approach life. What it means to work, socialize with friends and family, and even prepare a meal altered drastically within the space of a few weeks. People who barely knew how to turn on their oven started experimenting in the kitchen; others, accustomed to dining out, found themselves food prepping for weeks at a time; and many people with families, partners, or roommates found themselves once again gathering together at meal times. Included in all of its life-altering impacts, the pandemic has changed the way we live at home, including how we utilize our kitchens, home offices, and technology.

The Ways Builders Can Benefit From Inbound Marketing
Builder
Have you heard of inbound marketing? Inbound marketing, also called content marketing, is exactly what it sounds like: marketing efforts designed to draw customers to you, rather than outwardly pushing your services to the widest possible audience. Rather than crafting a very general, impersonal message and broadcasting it out to anyone and everyone, inbound marketing is more about focusing on creating content that gets the right message in front of the right person at exactly the right time.
