@PromoKitchen A3) Again not an employer BUT I still have best practices, etc from my first job in the industry & that’s where my work ethic was instilled. Train new hires w the “new normal” & show them work ethic, etc from the start this way #promochat

@licensetoswag @KaitlynForShort @PromoKitchen YASSSS GIRL!!!! #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@PromoKitchen A2) Not an employer but I would say it’s hard to tell from an interview what qualities someone truly has regardless to what they say. BUT you can’t fake authenticity and integrity - always look for a sense of those qualities #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@PromoKitchen A1) ASK FOR HELP!!! I can’t stress this enough - ask questions and ask some more questions - and if you think it’s a dumb question, that’s the one you should ask the most! #promochat

@PromoKitchen Amanda Delaney here - Director of Branding at Sound Apparel - a distributor in the great PNW. I’ve been in the industry for 18 years, about half and half on the distributor side and half on the supplier side. We’re so happy you guys are here!!!! #promochat

@commonsku @PromoKitchen Hi Aly!!!! #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@PromoKitchen A2) Carving out time to be proactive and more intentional when we get back to a place where we’re “too busy” again - I definitely want that to become a habit moving forward #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@PromoKitchen A1) I like to think I’m a pretty adaptable person anyway, and I’m really good with the “survival mode” situations in life, but this has taken that adaptability to a whole new level and has taught me ALOT about acceptance. And I mean ALOT :) #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@PromoKitchen Hi guys!!!!! I’m heeerrrreeee!!!! #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@PromoKitchen A6) Im loving the same content as I always have, just able to listen to more of it now which means I’m able to apply it to life and work more than before, which has made existing content ‘speak to me’ more now than before #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@commonsku @PromoKitchen See you in 7, skummunity!!! #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@JavierSolutions @TrendOnbrand @budlight Bud light all day, my friend!!! #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@PromoKitchen A5) not to sound redundant, but I hope to see more targeted marketing efforts when this ends - this is giving us all a chance to connect more personally w/ the time to be client specific & I hope those efforts continue when we’re all “too busy” #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@PromoKitchen A4) I’ve never really done those ‘email blasts’ at a specific time - I mean I do certain things at consistent times but usually against ‘the norm’ so nothing has changed here. So my answer is if no help to anyone at all 😂 #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@PromoKitchen A3) I hope this ‘new way of communicating’ sticks so suppliers and distributors are able to work more closely together than before and more often - such as video calls in between in person meetings to be more connected than before, etc #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@PromoKitchen A2) we have so much more time to be intentional now with emails! I’m sending weekly “stories from the sound” emails that are mostly relevant to our local community and backing it with specific product, virtuals, etc. #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@PromoKitchen A1) honestly just anything that provides positivity - what people are doing with clients, in their communities, etc. “Real life” examples of what others are doing to get through this that can generate inspiration to do the same #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@PromoKitchen Oh heyyyy #promochat peeps!!!!

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@PromoKitchen A3: Honestly Im not pivoting anything. I’m sending clients/posting on social product I’ve hand picked for individual clients and/or our existing general markets & creating mktg campaigns to go w/ each same as before, just w/ some extra love ❤️ #promochat

[Amanda Delaney @ajdelaney919]

@JohannaDGotts YES!!!! #promochat
