The ability to combine incredible design with data is what makes infographics so popular. Few people enjoy staring at tons and tons of statistics and data. Infographics make it more fun. It’s like storybooks for grown ups. Bands often separate themselves from the rest with a great stage show. That could mean great lights, pyrotechnics or dancers and more. If you’ve paid any attention to what I write here, you’ll know I’ve seen more than a few concerts. Here’s a playlist of some of the bands I’ve seen improve their shows with a spectacle of a stage show. Hopefully it’ll inspire you to take whatever you’re doing to the next level.

by Andy Shore

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.
