Sometimes you have to wonder if social media is the home of TMI (Too Much Information) both in terms of what gets shared and the sheer quantity of information. If there ever were a virtual gathering of “Oversharers Anonomous”, it would happen on one of the many social media platforms where it seems anything goes! That’s good news for businesses...
Starting a business costs money, sometimes a lot more than you have to start out with and definitely more than you can expect to make during that critical start-up phase. So how do you bridge the gap between the absolute essentials you need to get your enterprise off the ground and the influx of cash once the business starts coming in? It’s called...
It seems to be going just as you hoped. You hit it off from the beginning, the conversation flows easily from personal anecdotes to the business at hand, and best of all, your potential new client LOVES all your ideas. She just can’t get enough of your brilliance. And then it happens… She thanks you for all your amazing insight and tells you...
Building a community around your business seems to be the latest marketing buzzword. You can’t talk about social media and marketing without hearing how important it is to build a loyal community.

But that’s exactly what you are doing every time you step into social media to connect with your fans and followers. Let’s start with a story that goes WAY back to the beginning of my...
Every now and then you meet someone who you just know is going to succeed no matter what because they have the characteristics that people would describe as a real go-getter.

“Success is doing what you love and making it a career but I don’t know who will pay me to drink wine while looking at Pinterest.” You often hear people say that “playing” on social media is a waste of time. I thought that too until I did something on Twitter – by accident – that led to a $12,000 sale. That kind of makes all that time...
Spam, spam and more spam. Everywhere you turn on Twitter there’s semi-naked girls tweeting their lewd links or a Direct Message informing you that there are terrible pictures of you posted on this site…and that’s just the beginning of all the ways spammers do their deeds. Just when you think it’s safe to go back into social media, when you...
Your time is your most valuable resource as an entrepreneur because it’s the only thing you can’t make more of.
