Purple Cows in Vermont

OK. So it took me awhile to get to this point. Here is my first real blog--

I live in the Green Mountain State of Vermont where there were once more cows than people. Not any more. But you can still see a few Holsteins or Jerseys out in the fields. I actually grew up on a small dairy farm in Vermont. I only milked the cows once but I threw bales of hay every summer. I had muscles back then. Now that I am building a new biz, I have been reading lots of books. I recently read Seth Godin's book "Purple Cow". The book is about transforming your business or your product by being "remarkable". He even notes Vermont's own Ben & Jerry's as an example of a "Purple Cow". And I have to agree. I find it hard to eat any other ice cream now, although Island Ice Cream is a close second. Vermont has many Purple Cow products, businesses, authors, and artists--both visual and musical. I like to think the Vermont-based singer/songwriters that I work with are Purple Cows. And Bella Voce Women's Chorus of Vermont. Please take time to check them out. I think Chris Bohjalian is a Purple Cow author. Take time to read his books! And Flatbread Pizza!! Yummy. There are many more Purple Cows in Vermont. I'm just drawing a blank right now. But they will come to me. More later.
