stream thinking. It's learning how to trust what is in
your present place of right now. To get there is
going to require some practice. Here's what I do every
day one sheet of paper, just one, just ten minutes
of your life. Write about whatever is moving through your
present place of right now. It does not have to
be a Dear John letter, doesn't have to be a
journal page. It doesn't have to be a Debbie Downer moment.
Just don't bring any judgment. Stream thinking will sharpen your
skills as a listener, as a communicator, and as an activator.
It's learning how to trust what is in your right now.
This is stream thinking today. We're reading from May seventeenth,
twenty twenty five. More than ever, my eyes are locked
in on a path that I couldn't predict, and I
may never locate the answer that I'm really seeking. Terrestrial
radio is nowhere near what it used to be. Now,
if you're on the air today, I see you as
a survivor. With so much information constantly being thrown it
each and every listener. How do real people find radio
in the first place? I mean, one of the reasons
why people tune in with so many platforms to listen to,
and they chose radio. That fascinates me in the way
of trying to locate the roots of this shapeless Americana. Now,
the question is what are you gonna do to get
them to come back tomorrow? Now, let's replace that word
radio with restaurant. What are you going to do with
your restaurant to get them to come back tomorrow? They
found you today, But have you ever asked yourself the
question why? Okay, Now, let's switch that out to grocery store. Ooh,
I like that grocery store. But how many times have
you been there? Oh? You know, maybe once or twice
a year? Why aren't you going back? These are the
questions that these department heads and general managers need to
be asking. What can we do to bring people in
so they can come back a different day. What is
the experience on your side once they walk through your doors?
Now here's my pet, peeve. What does your store business
or attitude look like if it is cluttered up and
I'm seeing products sitting in baskets that should be on
the shelf or thrown away. Now we got a problem.
Image is the reason why people don't come back. Let's
throw this in there. Why are people walking into car dealerships?
What brought them to that location? Because it was the
nearest Ford dealership? Because Honda has a great deal right
now because it's outdoing Kia. What are we going to
do to get them to come back? Because how many
families only have one car? If you've got teens, you're
working on more than that. So the question is what
are you doing with your present place? And how are
people trying to come to you if you're not reaching
out to them. I'm rrow and that's stream thinking.
