So I went to the shopping mall with my daughters.
While they were off looking at clothes and accessories. I wandered around by myself.
When nature called, I ducked into the men’s room.
But I was immediately taken aback.
Because there, standing at the urinal doing his business, was a guy with his phone in one hand. Busy swiping through social media.
Surely he was old enough to know our unwritten etiquette? …
That you get in there. Eyes to yourself. Focus on the task at hand. And get out as quick as you can!
How can you NOT do without your phone for 30 to 60 seconds while you’re going to the bathroom?
Although, from what I hear, it’s common these days.
Might as well just have our phones grafted into our bodies. And eliminate the risk of an expensive phone slipping into a rather unpleasant spot.
It might not be the most hygienic place to be busy swiping. And you miss out on the natural mental break that just using the facilities affords.
But the flip side for us as business owners is…
We depend on this desire to consume content
Particularly as content creators, whether it’s making videos or sending emails…
People actually CONSUMING that content is good for us.
Because if people open our emails, engage, and consume… they get to like and know us more. And it builds the relationship.
No matter the bizarre places it’s done in.
Plus, they gain awareness of the products and services you offer. And the things that you can do to help them get ahead with their business and life.
Now, I don’t expect you to be reading my emails while in the bathroom.
(And please DON’T send me emails to tell me that’s what you do! š)
But… should you fancy having something to consume for a quiet moment…
In a place of your choosing…
