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.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Democrats suck at branding.
Private companies do not, though: https://www.sempersolaris.com/
Veteran owned, uses made in America parts, offers military discounts and they have a program where they do free installs for struggling vets.
Their tagine is "declare your independence from the power company"
I interviewed for a job with them once and they actually sounded very competent too
Maybe they're good at branding, but they suck at marketing.
If your product exists, fills a niche, solves a problem, and is the right price, but no one is buying it, then you suck at marketing.
Or the niche is too small
