If you want to stand out in life, business or on the Internet, then you need to be different, in fact, it helps to be a little bit strange.

By being strange, you can inject things like humour, fun and controversy into your business and websites, and this will bring great benefits to your marketing and branding efforts.

So here are my top nine tips to help you become strange (warning, these tips may send you insane):

1. At Lunch Time, Sit In Your Parked Car With Sunglasses on and Point A Hair Dryer At Passing Cars. See If They Slow Down.

2. Every Time Someone Asks You To Do Something, Ask If They Want Fries with that.

3. Put Decaf In The Coffee Maker For 3 Weeks. Once Everyone Has Gotten Over Their Caffeine Addictions, Switch To Espresso.

4. Finish All Your Sentences With “In Accordance With The Prophecy.”

5. Ask People What Sex They Are. Laugh Hysterically After They Answer.

6. Put Mosquito Netting Around Your Work Area And Play Tropical Sounds All Day.

7. Five Days In Advance, Tell Your Friends You Can’t Attend Their Party because You’re Not In The Mood.

8. When The Money Comes Out The ATM, Scream “I Won! I Won!”

9. Tell Your Children Over Dinner. “Due To The Economy, We Are Going To Have To Let One Of You Go.”
