About

I run a marketing services organization known as the kimbro agency. You can find it on the web at www.thekimbroagency.net. Most recently I launched a monthly newsletter called Trendcites (rhymes with bites) which covers trends in the home dec, fashion, craft, gift and stationery, housewares, back to school, home office and office supply markets catering to individuals or organizations such as manufacturers or retailers who need to be 12-24 months out on trend information. Because there is so much territory to cover I thought touching on some of this in a blog would be helpful in keeping everyone up to date and at the same time letting people get to know me better and what my approach is to creating a spot-on marketing plan, something I am very good at doing.

If you’re craving more information, go to www.trendcites.com (rhymes with bites) to check out the industry newsletters the kimbro agency is publishing or contact me directly at kim@trendcites.com for how we can help support your growth initiatives. If there is something you would like to see covered that I haven’t we will do customized trend reports tailored to your specific needs, timing and industry, available on request. Thank you for visiting. I look forward to chatting with you soon.

    Hi Scott. Thanks for leaving your information. I like the cork plug-in. I’ve been a huge fan of cork and have hawked it myself as a material for manufacturers to use for environmental reasons. Yours is a clever usage of it too.

    Alex, if it’s anything like how you have been posting at On the Runway, it will be very interesting to keep up with. See you in the blogosphere.

    Hi, Kim!

    Now, now, I went to Alex A.’s blog and found out you have a website. Darling! I wish I knew it sooner, so now I’ve got a lot of reading to do.

    Kindest regards,

    Autre, thank you for stopping by. The world in here gets more interesting everyday. And I have some reading to do myself on your essay over at the NY Times On the Runway blog. I’ll have to take a couple of days off from my blog to do it I’m sure, but am looking very forward to it.

    Thanks again.

    That essay’s getting me into a lot of trouble. Hey, I can dish it out, but I can also take it - but not the stupidity. Thanks for your support, though.

    I’m trying to figure out how to translate fretwork into Slovenian. I doubt we have a word. Maybe I’ll invent it and then run it by some of my linguist friends.

    Best, Marko

    You are really something, Autre/Marko. You know we all love it, regardless.

    Interesting re fretwork in Slovenian. So fretwork does exist in Slovenia? I mean that type of technique. Because I still don’t think I have an actual country invention of it, unless its origin is Asian.

  9. Autre-Marko on August 31st, 2007

    I don’t know if it exists - I bet it does. Just not sure who produces it. Will report.

    Best,

    I finally found it! This should have dawned on me sooner. Gothic fretwork! In Slovenian: “krogovičje” [kro-go-vich-ye].

    Best,

    Thank you so very much Autre-Marko. If you have an image, I’ll post it because I already love the sound of it–Gothic fretwork in a romance language. It must be beautiful.
