This is a recent guest post by me published on the lovely DesignSponge blog for the Biz Ladies section. It’s all about analyzing the competition to see how you stack up in your own biz. I hope you enjoy and feel free to leave thoughts or comments on Design Sponge itself!
First of all, let me preface by saying HI BGB’ERS! 😀 Long time no blog! I apologize for being so MIA and leaving ya’ll in the content lurch. Unfortunately I have been in the middle of a custody battle over my step-son and it’s eaten up quite a bit of time and resources. But I know God’s got our back and all will be well, so- moving on! I just have two questions for you, dear BGB’er: What’s your...
Howdy BGB’ers! I know it’s a Saturday and many of you are likely off having a bang up time with your families. However due to some custody drama yesterday (don’t you hate that shite?!) this post didn’t go up when it was supposed to. Thus, I had to do it today as I simply couldn’t wait and wanted you to get all the goods about something cool I’ve recently been asked to review. Please know that I...
Hey there peeps. Happy Monday! I actually was tied up most of the weekend attending an Internet Marketing seminar here in Orlando, at the invitation of Ken McArthur to be an expert panelist. (So honored by the way!) To tell you a bit about it, I decide to create a quick video (gasp!) and share my thoughts. (I know, you’re still reeling over the fact I’ve done another video...
First of all- Happy V Day BGB’ers! Pink and Red are the colors of the day, and tell me… what sort of images do they invoke to you? Think about that as you read, and be sure to drop your comments in the comment section below. Do you feel all warm and love-y and well… Valentine-y? Sometimes when you’re busy preparing a new branding strategy and writing your brand story you get...
OK, so maybe not with a shoestring and a thumbtack. But with a brain definitely (minus the pea) as well as an Internet connection and a lap top. Or at least access to an Internet connection and a lap top. C’mon, we’re not going all MacGyver here, sheesh. Anyhoo. I thought I’d write a post today tonight 2 days ago, exploring two very viable ways a motivated chap (or chappete)...
We’re just hitting our 2nd week into the New Year and I’m sure you’ve all been busy bees, jotting down your intentions to make this your year. Like the Best. Year. Ever. (RIGHT?!) Or don’t you believe in New Year’s resolutions anymore? That’s cool; I don’t really dig the term resolutions either. Sounds too much like absolutions, which in my warped brain starts making me think I need to be...
Hey my lovelies! I did promise more videos, didn’t I? Good, bad or ugly! Please excuse the rag-a-muffin look, it does seem to come naturally. 😉 So. Here is a very short video, dedicated to Thom of InTreeHouses.com and to YOU, who should all totally subscribe to his publication. #JustSayin’. Thom- this thank you’s for you, kid. 😉 (Damn I crack myself up sometimes…) Thom...
Gratitude is a funny thing. We talk a lot about giving thanks for the things or people or events we are grateful for, but when it comes down to it, gratitude is sort of ephemeral. It comes, it goes, and sometimes we forget all about it. But when we pay attention, it’s like an angel with gossamer wings. It inspires, makes us feel good about ourselves and our lives, and allows us to...
OK, so I realize it’s no longer 2010 and this post is a day late and a dollar short. In my defense, I’ve had a lot going on and kiddies underfoot, so finding some time to get things done that I want to get done has been uber difficult. And does it make me a totally bad parent when I say I am SO glad my kiddies are off to school tomorrow?! LOL No really, I adore them but the two week...
