Trail Blazing

Hi! My name is Bryan Ricard and I created this blog to use as an outlet for all of the ideas that run though my head everyday. My posts include, but are not limited to, the discussion of advertisements, marketing campaigns of many forms, company logos, branding, social media, and motivational thoughts. Trust me, you’ll enjoy the occassional swim in my pool of ideas, opinions, humor, and sarcasm.
