A Facebook friend of mine posted a link to a new website a friend of theirs had recently launched, so I decided to check it out. (Ah, the power of social media) The home page looked pretty good so I decided to look around a bit more (always a good sign).
I should mention that this website [...]
Howdy, strangers! I have recently come to a startling conclusion: I have not gotten a single client because of my Facebook page or LinkedIn profile. Nor have I gotten a single client due to a tweet or blog post. Not a one. All of my clients have come from either referrals and introductions from my [...]
*Note: I am going to use the word “brand” to mean your Facebook page (that thing on Facebook you set up for your organization) to help differentiate it from your personal Facebook profile (that thing on Facebook you use to play Farmville and wish your friends “happy birthday”). If you think the word “brand” is [...]
How was your summer? Mine was pretty darned good, but I learned something about me and blogging. Despite having trouble keeping a consistent blogging schedule in general, things get really bad in the summer. Most times of the year, I at least think, “Oh. I need to write a blog post soon,” even if I [...]
For my coaching clients out there (or anyone else who needs to offer an appointment schedule), I think this is a great addition to Google Calendar. Now you can schedule slotted appointment times and invite your clients to choose from those times you have made available. Here’s how to set it up:

As most of my readers know, I love me some Google and especially Gmail. So here are the 5 tips I use most often:

Well, my website is anyway. I am…well, older than 1. Obviously.

Thanks are definitely in order!
To my family who have supported me until I could stand on my [...]
I have had two separate conversations about protecting tweets with two separate people this past week. And since my blogging schedule has been sporadic at best, I figured I would use what I could.
First off, I will tell you what I told them – I don’t think people who protect their tweets really get what Twitter [...]
Hopefully you already have some sort of tagging or category system set up for your blog posts. I won’t get into the subtle differences between tags and categories here, but you should be using one or the other or both to keep your posts organized and be able to easily link to a specific topic.

Last week was our Spring Break so I took basically the whole week off. I even believe I set a record for time away from my laptop. That’s right, I didn’t even pack it. No laptop. For pretty much a week. And no one got hurt. Well except my mom, but she tends to do [...]
I needed someone I could trust with sensitive customer data, someone who could handle a million details that were driving me crazy, and someone who would follow through without whining or being reminded ten times. I found it in Kristina!
