Start at DATUM
In navigation, datum is a fixed point used when calculating routes, measurements or other metrics based on this established standard. Determining datum is critical to effective navigation, planning and execution. Like navigation, communication strategy and design requires a precise, accurate datum to effectively deploy marketing programs.
My "datum” is the desire to help those in our community that are doing good things
