Moving On Up

It took one whole email, but I've doubled my readership this week. I suppose the move from 2 to 4 may not be as impressive as I make it out to be, but if I just double readership every two weeks, I should be in line for world domination shortly.

My "announcement" email was received extremely well by my network. Thank you to all for your well wishes, networking suggestions and forwarding my information to your contacts. In just a few short days I have received offers to brainstorm over lunch, to accompany individuals to chamber of commerce meetings and a ton of positive vibes to keep my energy high.

To keep things fun at the end of the week, here are my top 5 observations from starting my own business thus far:
  1. A guy with no job can still get way too high a limit on his new business credit card pretty easily. What banking crisis??
  2. Once you buy your domain name, organize your business and publish your web page, you'll think of a way better company name that is still available.
  3. The number of children running around your house is inversely proportionate to the amount of time you can focus on business. (I only have two so that Nadya Suleman lady has no hope!)
  4. Network, network, network.................seriously, it's your only hope!
  5. Now that all the legwork is done, here comes the scary part of doing something........

In the spirit of doing something, I've posted the following outreach event I am taking part in on my website and my cohorts are doing some marketing through the Peoria Chamber of Commerce and the UPS Store.

Saturday - February 21, 2009 - The UPS Store @ 75th Ave. & Thunderbird

Resume Writing Clinic - 10am to 2pm

I will be on hand along with other business managers to provide critique and education about resume writing and online application strategies. It is FREE of charge and special discounts will be available on printing services at The UPS Store.

Thanks again everyone! Hopefully these are only humble beginnings!
