Hello there! My name is Brittany Grundy, and I'm thrilled to introduce myself as the writer behind this blog. As a busy mom of seven little munchkins, life is always an adventure, to say the least. My husband and I have been married for almost 11 years, and we've had the pleasure of building a life together that's full of love, laughter, and a healthy dose of chaos. We recently made the leap to homeownership in Linn County three years ago, and it's been an incredible experience so far.

When I'm not wrangling my tiny humans or crunching numbers as an accountant at a big corporate company, you can find me getting outdoors and soaking up some fresh air. I love hiking, exploring new places, and simply enjoying the beauty of nature. I'm also a bit of a travel enthusiast and love planning trips with my family to new destinations. And let's not forget about music - live music is one of my greatest joys, and you can often find me at a concert or festival with friends, singing along to my favorite tunes.

As if life wasn't crazy enough with a herd of kids and working full time, I decided to take on a degree in accounting and business, which is what lead me to this class. I hope to learn new and effective ways to not only market effectively for business purposed, but how to utilize those skills to market myself as well! I look forward to learning this quarter and cannot wait to see what summer quarter has in store :)

Now Alani Nu is a popular energy drink brand that offers a range of energy drinks and supplements. On social media, the brand is promoting its unique flavors and high-quality ingredients, as well as engaging with customers and responding to feedback. On Instagram, many customers are raving about the brand's unique flavors, such as Hawaiian Shaved Ice and Pink Slush. For example, @lifewithashleywhite said, "Omg. Cosmic Dust is my fave but I haven’t tried the shave ice one" (@lifewithashl

  The article "Revolution Beauty's latest financial results make a strong case for the importance of marketing" highlights the significance of marketing in driving growth for the beauty retailer Revolution Beauty. Despite a reduction in marketing spend, the company's adjusted EBITDA improved, but its digital revenue declined. This case study demonstrates the importance of balancing marketing investment with other business priorities.
