How about a list of worn out STR cliches?

"Crushing it"

"Killing it"

"Optics"

"scale"

"Leverage"

"Metrics"

"Airbnb" (as in "I want to buy an Airbnb")

"STR's" (as in "I want to hear about STR's", with no reason for an apostrophe)

I have sworn off all of these terms, forevermore.  If I slip up, let me know.

     I cringe every time I hear these.  The most useless thing anyone ever says in this business.

    “Powerful marketing tools” meaning QR codes, cookies and pURL’s, which have been around for over 10 years.

    Well some of those terms need to be used sometimes!

    My 2 cents - Rockstar...

    Doesn't sound like "an honest question". Sounds like finger-wagging disapproval.  ;  )

    Let's table this for now, put a pin in it, get some synergy going with the boots on the ground, get our ducks in a row and go after the low hanging fruit, then work hard-play hard for awhile, "pivot" to the "new normal", peel the onion, open the kimono, do a deeper dive then have a "come to Jesus" moment and think outside the box. We'll circle back on this later....
