Happy New Year 2011 was a year of challenge and change. I am thankful for all of the new people I’ve met and the opportunity to serve, teach or present. This year is going to be a roller coaster… working on my 1st book with a professional writer, starting to expand my business with two…
DetailsLast week I was invited to do a presentation at an area high school for a group of students that were chosen as leaders in their fields. It ranged from sports stars to the Auto Club (really? there was no Auto Club when I was in high school). There were four presentations intended to help…
DetailsBy now… I am assuming that you get the point that Social Networking and Internet Marketing are not going away. As a matter of fact, it just keeps getting more sophisticated.

I attend leads groups, chamber groups, three business think tanks, countless after hours, ribbon cuttings, and not to mention… multiple fore hour nature meetings every month!
