The Secret to Getting Real Results from Social Media

  What’s the secret to getting a big return on your social media marketing plan? Focus on your investment.
Recently, I spoke at a conference on a panel titled, “How to Measure Social Media ROI.” One of the things I noticed, both at this conference and in my career, is that everyone is fixated on the return part of the ROI equation, but nobody wants to talk about the investment. When it comes to collecting the return, we’re ready to roll out the red carpet, but what about the investment that makes the return possible? What are you willing to invest to get the return you say you want?

Clearing Resistance to Attracting Money & Prosperity

Clearing Resistance to Attracting Money & Prosperity

I don’t know about you, but prosperity consciousness (i.e., the belief that I can have lots of money and the other things I want) was a struggle for me many years after I started working for myself full time.

Although I’ve been able to support myself well enough and never lived paycheck to paycheck or run up bad credit card debt, my income seemed to keep hitting the same less-than-ideal ceiling.

But what was stopping me was NOT the state of things “externally” (e.g., the economy, other people, lack of resources, etc.), but rather the state of things “internally”—in my mind. I was never taught or had role models for affluence or business ownership, and in some ways I learned that you shouldn’t want to have a lot of money because it’s self-indulgent, or if you have it you’ll probably lose it.

Over the past few years I’ve begun working with the Law of Attraction principles and various mentors, teaches & coaches who have helped me understand and harness these principles more effective. Thanks to the internet, there are a lot of great resources to access and I’m always looking for things I can do to improve the process.

I wanted to share these videos I found on YouTube that guide you through some EFT (meridian tapping) to release discomfort and limiting beliefs about money. (It had to be broken down into 3 videos due to YouTube’s former rule limiting videos to 10 minutes).

I’ve been doing this tapping sequence in the morning (about 15 minutes) and have already had several new/renewing clients. One prospect called me and set up an ppointment 5 minutes after I completed this video series for the first time!

Ways to Feel More Thankful–Even When It’s Hard

  Ways to Feel More Thankful–Even When It’s Hard

When things are going well in our lives, we often take all we have for granted and don’t take time to appreciate and acknowledge what we have. It’s easy to feel grateful when things are going our way. It’s a lot harder when they’re not. The whole “why me?” and victim mentality sets in and makes you feel angry, bitter, confused, and envious of others who seem to “have it better.”  Read more

Are You a “Conscious” Business Owner?

Are You a “Conscious” Business Owner?

Guest Blog by Carol Liege

What does it mean to be a “conscious” business owner?

There’s been an evolution in the online conversation lately, I noticed, toward dwelling on the personal experience of being “conscious”: being in touch with one’s sense of purpose, feeling good about what you’re doing, making heartfelt decisions, being grateful and fair, being healthy and promoting health, being spiritual and soulful, things like that.

While all those things are true and wonderful, there are also cultural criteria the larger business community and society as a whole use… Read more

How’s Business?

  How Do You Answer the Question, “How’s Business?”
  Guest Blog Post—Karen Graves

Did you ever get the question, “How’s business?” and feel completely stuck?

I often see people give a “deer-in-the-headlights” look before staring down at their feet and mumbling an answer like, “It’s okay.  Could be better,” or exclaim, “Great!” which is then followed by an awkward silence because they don’t want to go into detail.

It’s quite funny really.  Everyone asks the question and very few are ever fully prepared to answer it.
