The Road Less Traveled On!

Unknown

Three weeks ago I took the road less traveled on.  Once again I stepped out into the unknown.  Three weeks ago I went to Nairobi to do a leaderships training to women in leadership and I was wrecked. I learned how thankful I am that I had the opportunity to give back in such and extraordinarily way. If you would of have asked me 5 years ago would I ever even thought of traveling Africa.   I would have said you are crazy!  All I did is say yes and I did it.  It has changed me in every way.  If

How Are You Going To Move Forward?

There are all kinds of inspirational quotes out there on moving forward!  One of my favorites is by Oliver Wendell Holmes, it goes something like this “The great thing in the world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving.”  So my question is what are you doing to move forward?   As I look back in my life I realize that the times I was standing still were the times where not much was happening.  Now I’m not talking about moving forward just to move forward but I’m talking about moving forward with a

Up Close And Personal with Linkedin!

If you have gotten to know me through only Social Media networking then you know the most important thing for me is being relational.  For me, Linkedin is about relationships.  It’s about connecting.  So Linkedin is one of the many platforms I use to build relationships and get up close and personal.  Let’s face it no one likes to talk to an answering machine that is so automated that it takes an hour to get to a person.  If you think about either does a potential client.  Getting to know people has become personal in Social Media.  Humanize yourself by

Stop, Look & Listen on Facebook!

When I was in High School I went to all the football home games.  There was this cheerleading chant that went something like this; “Stop, look and listen we are the mighty bears”.  It was quite catchy because decades later I still remember that chant!  I love this chant so much that I applied it to my personal life and Facebook.  It is so important to “Stop, Look and Listen” in everything you do on Facebook.  So here are three thoughts on this catchy phrase in relation to Facebook. 1.   Stop – Stop has many meanings.  Such as to cease

Permit me to share some of my thoughts on Social Media and building relationships. My first thought is developing relationships with live people, face to face really matters.  Now this is kind of ironic coming from a business coach that specializes in Social Media Marketing.  I happen to be online, plugged in a lot.  So I’m really preaching to the choir here because in my business I spend a lot of time

SO-NOT-A-SOCIAL MEDIA-PLAN FOR YOUR BUSINESS! SM = Social Media

I get it!  I really do!   After last weeks blog many of my subscribers have informed me in these words.  “No way am I going to waste my time on Social Media (SM)”!  Why do I need a plan when my teenager can post for me, and create content.  That’s my plan.” The good news is if you really don’t want to grow your business or meet new potential clients then by all means don’t bother with a plan.  Who needs a fancy schmanzy SM plan anyways. Some more good news if you really don’t want to grow your business,
