A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

In Africa because of the large number of languages they put pictures of what's in the package on the label. Gerber baby food had some issues when it first sold in Africa.

Ouch! That was pretty brutal. Goes to show that you have to understand the market you’re trying to operate in.
