Free bike rentals in Gulf Shores

-

We had heard that you could ride bikes at the Gulf State Park for free, but then when we first looked up bike rentals for Gulf State Park we couldn't find anything except for options to pay to rent bikes. But then we decided to just walk some of Gulf State Park with our kids and we discovered their bike-sharing program which is really cool. We didn't actually use the bikes yesterday, but we learned how it works. Basically, if you download their app called "Bloom Bike Share", you are then able to take a bike for free for up to 3 hours to ride around on the 28 miles of trails in Gulf State Park. Bike stations can be found at common places like the beach pavilion entrance as well as at major trailheads throughout the park (such as Eagles Loop or Gulf Oak Ridge).

We plan to try it out later this week. It's an awesome option for those that aren't able to bring a bike with them on vacation but would like to try biking in Gulf Shores. Gulf State Park is huge and it gives you a great way to see a lot of it. And who doesn't like free.

Sending notes

-
I haven't been big on new year's resolutions lately, but I do like the idea of challenging myself in areas where I'd like to get better and setting goals for myself. Something that I've been thinking about doing is sending a note to someone different every week of the year just to say thanks or I'm thinking of you or praying for you. It wouldn't be hard to do and I know it's good for me as well as I think most people appreciate a little note. The other thing I've been thinking about along those lines is sending video notes. I heard this on a podcast recently. Since we don't see people as much these days it's easy to just record a video on your phone and email it or use a service like Loom to record your video and send a link or use an app like Marco Polo. It seems like this would feel even more personal than a note... though I haven't done it yet. So maybe send a note today to someone that's helped you out recently or maybe to someone who

Choose your own adventure

Do you remember the "Choose your own adventure" books? You would start the book and then as the story progresses the characters face forks in the road and you get to choose which way they go... which results in going to a specific page and continuing to read. I've been spending a considerable amount of time on marketing automation in the last month and these books from my childhood remind me of how marketing automation works. The big difference though is the customer doesn't realize he's choosing his own adventure as he navigates the communications we set out before him. He's simply making choices based on the marketing that we're putting out there and then based off of what he chooses we choose for him the next communication he receives. As I'm building this out I'm starting out with a pretty blank slate. There's a lot we don't know, but as we get more information from prospects and customers it will become clear who they are and what
