This is a guest post courtesy of Julie. All this talk of empire building recently, and Julie is on a mission to build one of her own. So, I agreed to her submission for two reasons. She has a great story with wisdom to share, and I wanted to help support her by bringing attention to her Kickstarter campaign. It’s hard to put yourself out there into the world, and try to create something out...
This is a guest post courtesy of Miz Sue Fenton. If you’re feeling any kinda overwhelmed with your business and entrepreneurial shenanigans, it “may” be time to consider outsourcing. Just throwing it out there. 🙂 Please make Sue feel welcome in the comments below. If you run a business, you are likely to be (at least somewhat) familiar with outsourcing. Ie: contracting for...
Once upon a story, there was an online friend of mine named Nathan. He used to run a blog over at NathanHangen.com, where, once upon the same story, I wrote a fantabulous (not to toot my own horn or anything) guest post. On said blog, Nathan liked to talk a lot about “Empire” building. He also liked to use testosterone filled words like “Sword” and “Sacrifice” and “Redemption”. (He’s such a...
Alert- since Earth Day was just this week, I thought a little Mother Nature lovin’ to be an appropriate focus for today’s post. Being an entrepreneur who is aware of the earth and its inhabitants, you strive to improve. (I did say strive now, no one expects perfection.) You’re giving, and your intentions are pure. A blog entry by Carrie Klassen of Pink Elephant Communications...
This is a guest post courtesy of Roye Okupe. While branding really isn’t rocket science, it is an area some businesses tend to fall a little short in. Luckily, there are examples of bangin’ hot brands out there that know just what the frack they’re doing, and they do it well. They might not be perfect all the time, but they are consistently doing shite right, and you can learn...
Hey BGB’ers!
A new post of mine just went live over on Freshbooks! If you’ve ever wondered about Kickstarter and using it to crowd fund your next creative venture, take a peek and check it out. 🙂 Shares and comments welcomed!
This is a guest post courtesy of my buddy and biz associate, who is one of the most sincere and genuine folks I’ve had the pleasure of making friends with via social media. Of course he’s the polar opposite of moi, because he actually LIKES talking to folks on the phone and meeting people on the realz. hehe Not to say I hate meeting new people, I am just the type who tends to get a...
Social media is here to stay folks. The platforms may change, processes may change, but it’s definitely not going anywhere. Unless of course we experience a sudden worldwide blackout, REVOLUTION style. (Tell me you get the reference!) But I digress. Some people, unfortunately for them, still tend to look at social media as a waste of time, or as merely a toy for young people. Some...
Hey BGB’ers… Happy Monday! 🙂 Just wanted to do a bit of a more personal post today and share some of my life with you. I haven’t posted much on the personal end since my Dad died. But I did announce in 2010 that my guy and I finally got engaged. And despite all the roadblocks the last two years have thrown our way, the big day finally was set and came on January 30th of this...
This is a guest post courtesy of Kimberly. Working for yourself isn’t always rainbows, butterflies, and cherry licorice. It has a downside just like anything in life. Please make Kimberly feel welcome and feel free to drop your thoughts in the comments below this post. So you got the nerve to step out on your own. Exciting, isn’t it? Living the life of an entrepreneur is exhilarating. You...
