The secret marketing lab up inside the Grinch's lair

Published: Fri, 12/25/20

There are many reasons why people might hate on the Grinch besides just his crotchety, termite-infested soul and because his heart's an empty hole.

But, I think he'd make one heckuva marketer, too.

And, here are a few reasons why:


1. Inventive

While it's true the Grinch is being a jerk when he fleeces Whoville, it's hard not to admire his ability to pull it off (in one night!) almost all by himself.

Max, of course, pulled the sled...


2. Quick Thinking

Coming up with all those successfully elaborate plans on the spot -- especially when under that kind of pressure -- is a pretty handy skill to have in ye olde marketing "tool box."


3. Makes Everything Right

The Grinch STOLE Christmas -- looting an entire town of probably tens of thousands of smackeroos worth of gifts, presents and food (he even took the last can of Who Hash!) And yet, somehow he was still able to make up for it and was even given the honor of carving the roast beast.

Those are some serious "PR" skills.


4. Passion

Once the Grinch gets smitten by something good (such as when Cindy Lou Who is in trouble, or when Martha May flirts with him in class) he's capable of all kinds of creativity and problem-solving feats and miracles.

And, some pretty clever ones at that...


So yes, the Grinch has marketing chops.

And you know what?

I'd bet green furry munney your marketing will stick out like a Who fart at dinner if you became more "Grinch like", too, and used some of the same tricks he did abive from his secret marketing lab up in his lair.

At least, in the ways above.

OK, that's it for today.

Be safe.

Have a merry Christmas.
