Thanks for the inspiration. Will try it out. It would be great if there was a way to add this to our Google calendar automatically somehow, and we would get a reminder for each task specifically every day. Might be wishful thinking hehe.
Hi Melanie! We’re so excited you’ve found inspiration in this piece. We’re not quite sure on the logistics of automatic Google Cal reminders, but for the time being, bookmark the social media tag on Outfront for more inspiration 🙂
