I love a good workday – I really do. You check stuff off the list. You high-five yourself (or in my case, I hug the cat) and know, “I really hustled today!” Except…there’s a new kind of hustle out there and it’s just not healthy. Working beyond the 40-hour, 50-hour, 60-hour work week I hear those…
Females and Finance – You Should Join Us!
About a year ago I realized I hit an artery. This was just when the #MeToo movement was in full chatter and so many organizations were outing men who acted dishonorably. I was sitting right in the center of this and wondering, “Do I press on with Females and Finance?” You see – what I…
#FridayReads: Hands Free Mama by Rachel Macy Stafford (Part 2 of 12-part series)
This is a 12-part series and you can read them in order: #FridayReads: Hands Free Mama by Rachel Macy Stafford (Part 1 of 12-part series) Hands Free is hard. There. I said it out loud. No joke. I had to actually SCHEDULE time to remind myself to put my phone down, but my daily phone…
The Super Bowl of Posts…it’s right here, friends
If someone said to me that they did not like Michael Strahan, I would have to stop talking to them. It’s impossible to dislike the man…because what I love the most about him is how he reinvented himself over the years. He went from noise to sound. Already a successful football player (he has broken…
If you build it (right)…they will come
A few years back I stood in front of a group of women in Indianapolis dressed as Kevin Costner from Field of Dreams and taught about marketing tools. “If you build it… they will come.” Only – I failed in that messaging. It should have been, “If you build it right…they will come.” Let me…
#FridayReads – The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving a F*CK by Sarah Knight
Yeah – #FridayReads is BACK!!!! I’ve picked out 26 books for 2019 and be prepared – a ton of fun reading is headed your way. I felt it was appropriate to start the year off with a deep dive and NSFW language. Yep – I went there. Also – I wrote this one specifically for…
Who haven’t you talked to in a while?
One of the questions I get all of the time in social media marketing is, “How do I get new clients?” Perfectly acceptable question, except – so many of us have old clients we haven’t talked to in so long don’t you kind of wonder what happened to them? I’m just as guilty of this…
#FridayReads: Hands Free Mama by Rachel Macy Stafford (Part 1 of 12-part series)
You know how you have books sitting around your house waiting to be read? I mean, I know you fully intend to read EVERY SINGLE BOOK you own, but let’s face it – you won’t. This book changed the way I think about that now. In December 2018, I was walking through my house grabbing…
Did you know about Facebook Watch?
There’s another video channel competing for your time and eye space, but….did you even know it exists? Also – did you know it’s been around since August 2017? Facebook Watch… Lack of awareness can hurt even the largest of brands. When I read the eMarketer report about Facebook Watch fitting into the digital landscape, I…
The Starwood Security Breach – and how you can protect your future privacy
Hello, fellow travelers. I wondered how long it would take for us to get “the memo” about the Starwood security breach that happened….FIVE YEARS AGO. (<—yep, you read that correctly) In 2013, about 3 billion users personal data was compromised and in the fervent art of transparency, the Marriott thought they should share this with…
I know that’s your favorite shirt, but it has holes in it…
Who else has said that to their child? Their spouse? You have these favorite clothes (or socks or pants) and they are cozy and feel good and you want to keep wearing them. But they have some holes here and there, but the majority of it is is still covering the necessary parts – so…
I need some help with this reader’s question…
This post might get me into trouble – but I’m going for it because I’ve been truly baffled on what the hell is going on out there. I have people who come to me ALL DAY LONG and ask me for marketing advice. I never tire of giving it – what I tire of….(and this…
