I am currently in the throes of final preparations for our wedding, BGB style. Coming soon to a venue near you. hehe (OK maybe not exactly near you, but it sounded good.) Just wanted to take a moment out of the day to wish all of you a challenging (the good kind of challenging), wonderfully fabulous, productive, lucrative, and blessed 2013 in every way. While today is typically considered a day...
Here’s a little flash of insight for you harried entrepreneurs. Many of you may be trying to oversee your business while secretly contemplating lopping off the heads of your poor workers. (Don’t fib!) Maybe your in the throes of a stressful situation with a client or feeling the weight of financial burdens nipping at your heels. Meanwhile you’re looking at your awesome workers...
It’s no joke that vibrant leaders can drive businesses to new heights. But the common ideal of an all-encompassing business head is a misnomer. In reality, leaders take on different roles to perform different services. One of many hats and all that jazz. A business owner charged with setting and establishing a company vision won’t be able to attend to the needs of his or her employees...
This post is for you entrepreneurs that are still working a J.O.B. and haven’t fully made the leap into Crazytown. That means you’re probably working your side gig around your job, and learning to juggle as a side benefit. Now how often have you sat down, determined to have a productive day? Then you look up and find that it’s almost five o’clock and you’ve...
OK so this post will be relatively short and sweet, as I’ve got a video to share with you today. (Now, now, settle down… it’s not MY video. I know, you’re so disappointed.) Actually, the video is of my gal Erika Napoletano. She recently spoke at a TedxBoulder Event and in my (hey, only sometimes!) un-humble opinion, she knocked it outta the park. In the video she talks about her own personal...
I don’t know about you, but I’m one entrepreneur that does NOT enjoy face time with people. Meetings tend to make me crazy, and are usually more trouble than they’re worth. Not to mention they eat up valuable time I could be putting towards more productive and fulfilling endeavors, such as writing or spending time with my kiddos. No doubt you waste your own valuable time trying to coordinate the...
Marketing. UGH. It’s one of those words that has the fascinating effect of causing one’s lip to curl… usually in a combo of fear, dread, and mild distaste. Unfortunately it’s a necessary evil (and doesn’t have to be skeevy either), so let’s talk about how you can do it a wee bit more effectively than you might be doing it right now. Then maybe I’ll go take my own advice. Heh! While the...
This is a post written by me that just went live on UnBounce, discussing the good, bad, and ugly when it comes to using social media. I know there are some horror stories out there, so if you have one to share, please drop by and share within the comments. Peace, Dork! 😉
