Effective SEO Strategies from a Self Proclaimed Non-Expert

E

OK, so I got a pretty good response when I talked about SEO and social media the other day.  Which led me to ponder… What do you really know about search engine optimization or SEO?  I mean really. Which led me to the somewhat warped conclusion that after discussing it briefly… I feel we should discuss it some more.  You know, to drive it all home and make sure it’s embedded in that sweet little...

A Productive Workspace, Your Home Office and YOU

A

OK, so if you’ve embraced the life of an entrepreneur (like me!), chances are you work from your home and have some sort of ‘home office’ get-up.  (Also like me!) That is awesome, because you NEED that space.  Even if it’s just a tiny corner of your bedroom with a desk in front of a window that you can claim as your own, that’s a great start.  You need that clearly defined ‘place of work’. It’s a...

4 Things Reality TV Can Teach You About Succeeding in Business

4

Yes, I watch TV. And don’t lie.  You know you do, too. It’s likely that it’s one of your secret guilty pleasures. And why not? Television makes for great writing material! When there is nothing better to do or the need to get “inspired” arises, many people do turn on the TV sets to see what’s “new.” TV also makes for a conversation piece. Did you know that television shows drive social media...

Stuck Like Chuck and Breaking That Dam to Pieces

S

We all have our moments of feeling ‘stuck on stupid’. You know. Like when you feel as if your brain is just a soggy, mushy mush of cells and brain matter, with nothing sparking along the synapses.  No signs of visible life.  Maybe an alien thought wiggles around here and there, but quickly flits out of sight. Kind of like Mars! Only less outer-spacey and more oozy and gory. Your only recourse to...

SEO vs. Social Media- Who Wears the Pants?

S

The short answer if you’re tight on time and really don’t want to read my stuff (sniffle, sniffle)… is that social media and SEO wear the pants in this duo. I know, SO boring when there’s a tie!  Where’s the blood? The guts? The glory? No TKO?  Sheesh. Alas, it’s true my friend. Search engine optimization (SEO) and social media are catchphrases you hear and read about on a daily basis if you’re...

Work-Life Balance and Kickin’ Some You Know What!

W

One of the reasons I gave up the dreaded J.O.B. (Just Over Broke) rat race and decided to go on my own is because I’d simply had it. I wanted to own my time again and I wanted to be my own boss. The burnouts weren’t worth it. The long hours for minimal pay made me unproductive and unhappy. I gave up my J.O.B. because I wanted my life back and I wanted an income that made a difference in my life. ...

This Craaaazy Little Thing Called Blog Love

T

Yesterday I was pleasantly surprised to receive a tweet and an email by the lovely Farnoosh of ProlificLiving letting me know she’d nominated me for a Beautiful Blogger Award.  To be honest, being ‘somewhat’ new to this whole blogging community I’d never heard of it before, but nevertheless I was totally psyched to be nominated.  (First time I can remember being nominated for anything… like ever...

Top 40 Do’s and Don’ts Before Selling the Farm and Going All Entrepreneur

T

OK, so if you’re anything like the 85% of the rest of the world, this whole down economy thing is the pits and probably has it’s dirty little talons firmly entrenched in your dubiously positive mindset.  So you’re carefully weighing your options and trying to figure out your next move in this game called life. Or, if you’re like the other 15% you’re toying with the idea of going all entrepreneur...

Success Minus Stress Equals Self-Employed Heaven

S

Businesses are like bodies.  Sorta. The healthier they are, they longer they last. As a self-employed individual, you’re like the heart and soul of your enterprise. You are the central core of everything and you can’t afford to break down. Losing grip on things can not only mean a loss of profit but it can also be quite demoralizing.  Think lots of tears, pints of Ben and Jerry’s, and a cave like...

The best compliment that I can pay Cori is to simply say that “she gets it”.

She works extremely hard to capture the written “voice” that will define your business. Cori intuitively knows how to deliver your message in a voice that is both creative and effective. As a newly-minted small business owner, I rely heavily on both her counsel and her expertise. And on top of all of that, she’s hilarious!
