There are two kinds of people. There aren’t really but for the context of this post, there are. 1: Those who you enjoy talking to so much, you lose your peripheral vision. In other words, you don’t notice what else is going on the room. People move about, come in, and leave, but you are […]
Your Content: Popular vs. Profitable
Did you survive the holidays? I think I slept the first 12 hours of 2014. Slight exaggeration but only slight. I did the unthinkable after breakfast and settled into the couch by the fire with my book and read for two hours while the rest of the family snored around me. Totally blissfully lazy. I […]
Old Gear, New Year: Duct Tape and Ass Ends Made of Beach Umbrella
I replaced these running shoes in October. Reluctantly. These shoes have taken me on the best running year of my life faithfully taking me up and down mountains and to finish lines in better time than ever before. They’ve carried me through the streets of Boston, Austin, Washington DC, and Phoenix; on the trails around […]
Trying Not To Drop The PR Baton
I’m always fascinated by the follow-up questions I receive when someone asks what I do for a living. I’m in PR with an emphasis on digital communications. I usually wait with anticipation because I always get something good: “Oh, can you manage our Facebook page?” “You’re in advertising!” “Are you in charge of Sandpoint.com?” Another […]

Would you say, “Hi, I’m the leading provider in world-class solutions blah blah blah?” I doubt it. The person would more […]
What Keywords Should I Use On My Site?
A friend asked me what keywords she should use for her web content. She was using the Keyword Planner, as I had suggested because it tells you how many monthly searches take place for a particular key word or phrase and what the competition is. Ideally, you want a significant number of searches (the definition of significant […]
Terminal G Makes Me Want To Miss My Connection
Hi! I’m back and I missed you guys! I didn’t even intend to take a break from the blog but one thing led to another, and I did a lot of letting myself off the hook. I had written something for the Monday before Thanksgiving only to decide it was garbage and not publish it. […]
The Badge Of Busy
I don’t know when being busy became a badge of honor where we get to share with everyone OMG, how busy we are. Like it’s a competition. And we’re winning. And as if we weren’t busy enough before, here come the holidays. The most wonderful time of the year! The motion of business slows down because […]
The One Question You Should Ask Of Your Business
My memories of grocery shopping as a kid take place in the seat of the cart at Wegmans in Syracuse, staring in wonder at the roller rack where they put your groceries in after you pay and it goes out through the rubber flapper door and around to the outside of the store where you […]
