    Way back in September (I wrote this immediately following the conference, but life’s been a little busy since),  I had the great pleasure of attending Bloggy Bootcamp 2012 put on by the SITS girls! What an amazing weekend! Not only did I learn more than I ever anticipated, I met so many familiar faces from my years of blogging, social media and twitter friends! There is nothing better than putting a warm smile to the face you’ve interacted with via twitter, etc for so many years. The familiar faces, sweet friends, great company and food, and the invaluable information shared by fellow bloggers.   Here are the top ten things…

    Social Media Marketing and SEO – Oh My!

    In today’s world, a social and web presence are not optional, they are a must and vital to the success of your business. I am here to say no matter how small your business is, a digital presence in the world is easier than you think. First, you must have a plan of action. Create a marketing plan and social media plan for your business.

Looking at your financial status, figure how much you can realistically spend on your…

    New Year’s Goals – Leave 10 Bad Habits in the Dust

    New Year’s is upon us and we all hope to make each year better than the last.

    A Year In Rewind – 2011 What a time!
