Everything is Figureoutable
As we have wrapped up 2024 and our first full year of Marisol Marketing, there has been a guiding theme that we’ve used to encourage clients who are often stuck in marketing overwhelm: Everything is Figureoutable. I’m not the first one to grab ahold of this phrase and there was a book by the same name published a few years ago, but it’s such a simple idea with incredible power that I frequently use to encourage my team, peers, and clients.
Most of us have internet access in our hands at all times and are just a search query away from getting started on research for most any situation we might be in. It still blows my mind how many resources exist to help us figure out how to solve almost anything.
Please hear that I’m not wanting to dismiss or disregard hardships in life. But, if you’re still looking for a Word or Theme for 2025 — business or personal — maybe Everything is Figureoutable is what you’ve been searching for.
Change Your Mindset
I don’t know how to say this delicately, so I’m not going to. There are people who are less intelligent and less experienced than you that “figure stuff out” simply because they decide to try and fail. Whatever it is that you need to figure out, believing in yourself and your capabilities is a great place to start.
Remove Excuses
If something is truly a priority, you’ve got to remove excuses. Time, money, not knowing where to start—excuses have to be removed. I make lists every single week and everything that gets dumped on those lists competes for priority. In 2024, there were a lot of things that were figured out and a lot of things that were left undone. But you are the only one who can remove those final excuses that are keeping you from getting that big project completed—or paying an expert team to complete that project for you.
Use Technology
There is so much information available to you. Every single day, more content is being created to help you find answers to your questions. Articles are being written, videos and podcasts are being published. You can search on Google, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, ChatGPT, and more. And all of these platforms are continuously changing their algorithms to match up the most accurate answer to your question. If you have a DIY mindset, there’s not a lack of resources available, it just may take you some time to sift through the information to figure out your next steps.
Ask for Help
Whatever you are facing or trying to solve—personal or professional—ask for help. Who in your network might have some advice? Who could pass along a referral for a trusted professional? Sometimes a phone call or quick conversation can save you hours, days, or weeks of frustration or heart ache.
I haven’t always had an Everything is Figureoutable mindset, but it is a muscle that I’ve continued to develop over the last couple of years and it continues to get stronger.
What’s the “thing” that is nagging at you that needs to be figured out? If it’s in the marketing space, reach out to us, and let’s see how we can help?
I’m cheering you on in 2025 and beyond!
