5 Movies Every Entrepreneur Should Watch This Very Weekend- No Excuses!

5

Alright, so I know you’re busy and have a ton of stuff on your plate… who doesn’t? But really… you can’t be so terribly busy that you can say no to watching a few great movies for your weekly dose of R and R can you?  (Don’t answer that, just watch them anyway!) And yes, I know I’m demanding. I understand that you may have a lot weighing on your mind these days, what with your new business...

This Ain’t a Circus People! How to Juggle Multiple Clients like a Pro!

T

OK, so I know that when you’re first starting out as an entrepreneur, there’s a tendency to accept all of the projects that come your way.  As in all…  like A-L-L. Luckily it’s a natural inclination and you’re not just bonkers. Chalk it up to perhaps being excited to establish your expertise and credibility—you want to show the world that you can do anything! Or maybe, like many first...

Ms. Independence, Baseball Bats, and Breakin’ All the Rules I Can

M

I’ve always been a bit on the ‘special’ side, since as far back as I can remember. And by ‘special’ I do mean ‘special’! My sister and I fondly call ourselves dorks on a regular basis, and wear the label proudly. Heck, I’m surprised we don’t have special t-shirts made by now that we wear in public. With afore mentioned pride. And brightly colored too! I’m not certain just where I got this...

Twitter’s Got New Features! What Do You Make of Them?

T

OK, so my time’s been a bit crunched today so I’ve not written my usual length post.  (What’s that you say?  You’re relieved?!  I think I’m hurt…) But I did want to take a few minutes to talk about Twitter, as I’m a pretty active Twitter user myself. OK, so a couple of weeks ago, cyberspace was all agog about Twitter’s announcement about rolling out new features and a new business model...

Kicking the Habit- Are You a Workaholic?

K

Chances are the answer’s yes. I know I am a bit of a workaholic, most definitely.  But the problem is, my work often doesn’t feel like work, which is why I get so into it. And when it does feel like work, I do it anyway because I’m motivated to earn more revenue and build my business up even bigger and better. You now, some folks say that the harder you work, the faster your business will grow...

Enter the Ranks of Super-Entrepreneur and Beef up Your Savings Strategy

E

OK, so this might stem from the fact that I’ve been taking Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace class now for the last several weeks. And in fact I wrote a post not too long ago where I talked about some of what I’ve learned so far on getting intentional and focusing on your goals. And then I talked about good ole Dave Ramsey again when I talked about emergencies being guaranteed to happen… that’s just...

Battling Distractions like a Serial Killer

B

OK, so I’m inspired to write about distractions again today simply because I’m stuck in a hospital room at the moment with my lovely mum, and did you know hospitals are ripe with distractions? Who’d a thunk it right? But I’m certain if I was home, I’d still be distracted because quite frankly… it’s a daily battle! When you’re working from home, you need lots of will power. No really, I mean LOTS...

Top 6 Reasons You Need to Schedule Me-Time And No Arguing!

T

When you’re starting out on your own and establishing yourself as an entrepreneur, the hours can be very long. And when you’re a one-woman team, juggling between being the CEO, the marketing guy (um, girl…), the secretary, the accountant, the tech administrator, and even the janitor (!) it’s hard work. Long workdays can suck the energy from you. I know, I’m feeling that energy suck today! And...

5 Things Smart Entrepreneurs Know- It’s Almost Like, Religion Kinda!

5

OK, maybe not exactly religion, but heck if you’re a smarty… you’re a smarty!  Worship at the altar of smarty pants and flaunt it if you know it.  Er… or something to that effect anyway. And if you don’t yet know these 5 things, prepare to be enlightened, and join the ranks of smarty pants the world over. Dum da dum dum… Ooohh… that was a bit dramatic wasn’t it? Alright, enough with the...

Writing Your Way to Entrepreneurial Success- A Winding Roadmap to J.O.B. Freedom

W

Working a J.O.B. sucks. And I can say that because I used to work one.  A back-breaking one at that. And now I don’t. Yay me! I’m J.O.B.less! Does that make me a slacker? Not even. That makes me 100% self-employed.  100% self-sustaining. 100% entrepreneur and singer of freedom and contentment.  Now I don’t say that to brag, not at all.  If you met me in person you’d find I’m pretty humble 99.87%...

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!
