Marketing Maestro: It Takes Less Than 1 Hour

It Takes Less Than 1 Hour

Next week is Election Day. Don't forget to take an hour and cast your vote. We are lucky to live in a country (assuming you live in the US) that gives us the privilege of voting for our leaders. We may not always get our choice of candidate elected but we have the ability to be heard. This video sums up the importance of voting next week. The leaders of these companies think it is important and are giving their employees an hour off.

It won't even take an hour... so don't forget to vote.

Hey, Josef. Great post. I am sure this year there will be a big turn out. Thanks, Jim

Hi there,

I actually voted yesterday. Since I'm heading to NAR in Orlando next Tue. I won't be at home. I found out that I could vote early at several locations around Orange Co.

Whatever it takes to get more voters involved is what we need to help this country move forward. Far too many folks have taken our freedoms and priviledges for granted and expect the "government" to take care of us. It won't happen if we don't VOTE!

Josef I am looking forward to getting the election behind us. Hopefully the psychology in the Real Estate and stock markets will both change for the better.

Jim and Maria, I bet you are right.

Lynda, did you vote for the winner...?

Don, I agree we need to take care of ourselves.  The government can not be the answer to all our problems (causes maybe...)

Bill, I am with you.  In a week or so when the elections are passed and we have a new President elect I hope things get back on track.

Hi Josef hopefully it only takes 1 hour I am dreading the long lines and crowded turnouts but that is a good thing right!!  I am in one of the battleground states..Virginia :(

Justin,

Your vote definitely counts more than mine here in the NY/NJ area but I would imagine they are preparing for a large turnout so hopefully it goes quickly.

Josef,  Very cool video and I enjoyed see all the business leaders some I was not familiar with !  Here in Florida we have seen a lot of people voting early ( I know people sigh when they here Florida :-) but I think it's very encouraging that people have had to wait to vote early ... means people are getting out there - gotta go vote!

In all reality...is'nt it true that the electoral vote is the ONLY Vote that matters? correct me if I am wrong...

Shannon - Vote early and often just make sure there are no dangling chads...

Steve - Yes the electoral votes matter but the popular vote helps determine how the electoral votes are cast and in certain situations the popular vote is a deciding factor (I don't remember all the rules from 7th grade government classes...)  Your vote counts and matters so don't forget to go out and vote.

Josef, it's our right and privilege as Americans to vote. Remember, if you don't exercise your right, you have no leg to stand on if you don't like the way the country is being run.

Craig, - You said it. Thanks for stopping by.

Posted by Josef Katz {Marketing Maestro} (Education Marketing and Direct Response Marketing) over 3 years ago

Josef - Even if it takes more than an hour to vote, you just have to do it.

Posted by Craig Rutman Raleigh/ Cary/ Apex area Realtor (Helping people in transition) over 3 years ago

Craig - Agreed.  Remember the old advice to vote early and vote often...
