I’m back at the Affiliate Summit Conference, ASW13, in Vegas. Despite all of the advice, I failed to work on my elevator pitch before I came. I assumed that I would alter it based on who I was speaking with, that I would specifically tailor it to relate to the individual in the conversation. This [...]

This is all Zac Johnson’s fault (who incidentally, is giving away his book for FREE on Amazon today). He has great advice about branding, and he chose to use a cartoon character to create his online identity. When I ran across this product, I knew I had to have it to create my own cartoon [...]

Whenever I start a new website, the most frustrating part of the process has consistently been graphic design. I do not have the natural talent necessary to design logos, headers, or attractive images. I rely completely on fiverr.com or odesk.com and outsourcers that I’ve worked with in the past to create my graphics for each [...]

I never should have had caffeine tonight. My beautiful almost two-year-old wanted nothing more than to snuggle with mom and fall asleep in my bed, and I couldn’t lay still. All I could think about was that I wanted to get certified to teach Zumba. And I needed to learn to draw an owl. Also, these three [...]

I’m very excited to introduce my new site, Internet Mompreneur. Two days ago, I took on the task of making an introduction video to tell prospective readers about the site, tell a little about myself, and share some of the information that would be available on the site. I wrote the script for my video, [...]

Lately I’ve had a real desire to have a blog where no one knows who I am. Being an anonymous blogger is all the rage these days, and I simply do not understand how it’s possible to keep a secret on the internet. Two of my very favorite anonymous bloggers can be found here and [...]

Wanted to say a huge thanks to Shawn Collins for helping me to attend the Affiliate Summit East 2012 Conference. Not only was that the most fun I’ve ever had at a conference, but the connections I made were absolutely invaluable. The sessions were full of far more information than I could absorb in a [...]

Not MY Mom, but somebody’s mom. (Except, if you want to hire my mom, you can. She’s a very talented individual, and you can read about her new business here.) Take a look at this sweet site: HireMyMom.com. If you’ve known me or read my blog for any amount of time, you know that I [...]

Wow, that sounds really strange. Let me be clear. I love non-life-threatening Emergency Room visits. This last weekend, my husband made a brilliant choice while putting in our new patio and wheelchair ramp. (Why do we need a wheelchair ramp? Read about my amazing nephew Zeke here!). He decided that while tamping down the dirt [...]

I’m just going to brag for a minute. One of my skills has always been hearing what people are interested in, what they are passionate about, and helping them make money from it. (If they want to. Some people are very smart about not wanting to mix business and hobbies!) Let me give you one [...]
