Make That Technology Work For You, Honey!
Don’t run around like a chicken with its head cut off. Do make technology work for you.
When I was a kid my Mom used to always say, “I’ve been running around all day like a chicken with its head cut off.” (Yo, PETA!) Being highly visual and very imaginative, as most kids are, it would bother me. A lot. Maybe you’ve heard it said before, or maybe it was just my...

The one-two punch.
I believe in Social Media as much, if not more, as the next guy to power your business onto greater heights. I’ve seen it first hand build a brand, market a product, move units. But I have to admit, with every push of the Social button I feel a pull towards a more “real life” means of advertising.

The LinkedIn-Twitter-Sharing Debacle.
My journal’s out. It’s totally confession time.
