Being aware of and tapping into trends and the cultural zeitgeist can be a great way to keep your marketing messages and brand contemporary to new and existing audiences. Business leaders, entrepreneurs, marketers, and enterprising nonprofit CEOS are notoriously curious. When you have this trait, you’re eager, playful, and exploratory. On the flip side, however, you also may have shiny object syndrome, quickly growing bored with what feels like the same messages and stories you repeat often. To keep them fresh and interesting, for you and your audiences, align them with a trend.
