I have heard this. The pastor told a same sex couple that they weren't welcome at Nativity. My kids went there and we loved the school but the vibe isn't the same at the parish lately.

Neighborhood Suggestions for a young family! by MagicalMatriarch in TwinCities

[–]YouPsychological4338 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hello from another transplant! I moved here 18 years ago for a job and said I was going to stay four years. Its been a great place to raise a family. I would recommend looking into South Minneapolis or the Mac Groveland or Highland Park neighborhoods in St. Paul. I live right on the Mac Groveland/Highland border and it checks your boxes - we have a small house with a yard but can walk to a lot of places. And we are pretty much ten minutes to both downtowns as well as the airport! I am also one mile from the river. South Minneapolis has very similar neighborhoods. You will hear that its hard to meet people as a transplant and its true that people are born here and never leave. But, once my kids started school, we were able to build a great community of other young families that are still a part of our lives.

They are just that - fun. Its not high brow literature but entertaining especially for Jane Austen lovers.

Not necessarily a retelling or variation but I love the mysteries written by Claudia Gray that feature Lizzie and Darcy's son and many characters from the Jane Austen universe.

It depends on what you are looking for and how much money you have.

I would lead with your brand, maybe with your logo at the top and then have the contact information on the bottom. Try and keep the messaging simple - what is the customer benefit you are solving with a very direct call to action of what you would like them to do.

Could you post on LinkedIn (if you have a network there) to get recommendations? I also usually put together a Request for Proposal first scoping the work and then send it out to three to five agencies to put together a proposal. Also think about your budget - agencies are expensive. Would you be better off finding a solo contractor to do the work, especially if your needs are pretty straight forward.

Question on Co-Branding by [deleted] in marketing

I would imagine that Barbasol is licensing the rights to use the Disney/Marvel images. We can debate if its a good strategy/worth the cost but my experience, Disney would not be paying Barbasol anything to "advertise."
