Growing up, Memorial Day meant a day off of school. Even after that, it became a paid day off of work and maybe a vacation to put the extended weekend to good use. A decent amount of the population may still look at Memorial Day in that light. But what did the rest of the country do while I was sipping an adult beverage with a tiny umbrella or making the turn on the golf course?

Memorial Day commemorates the military men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. With a Benchmark Email Memorial Day email template, you can remind your email lists why they get to enjoy their many privileges.

Andy Shore found his way to Benchmark when he replied to a job listing promising a job of half blogging, half social media. His parents still don’t believe that people get paid to do that. Since then, he’s spun his addiction to pop culture and passion for music into business and marketing posts that are the spoonful of sugar that helps the lessons go down. As the result of his boss not knowing whether or not to take him seriously, he also created the web series Ask Andy, which stars a cartoon version of himself. Despite being a cartoon, he somehow manages to be taken seriously by many of his readers ... and few of his coworkers.
