Get Yourself A Website

First of all, I don’t do HTML. I did learn, but I would rather spend time writing my content than trying to remember codes. Many web hosts use WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get). They also support HTML, if you’d rather use it.

Find an inexpensive hosting service that has all kinds of neat features and is really easy to do. Ask your friends and associates who they use.

Show off your photos, display your eBay or craft items for sale, even send a newsletter in no time.

When you find a hosting service with all of the features you love, just make sure that the server isn’t too slow. Otherwise, all the great features won’t make up for the frustration when it takes hours to update your site. - See I told you I have already made every mistake you can think of. Maybe this blog should be called What Not To Do.

Now have you started planning your website?

Until next time,
Carol

Using a Virtual Assistant - What Could YOU Delegate?

At some point, we all realize we can't do everything ourselves. When that happens, it's time to start thinking about hiring the services of a Virtual Assistant. My life has been so much easier since I started working with my VA. She does all the techie things I can't do, keeps me on track, motivates me when I get discouraged. If you're wondering how outsourcing could help you, here are some of the tasks that can be delegated to a VA: * Responding to customer e-mails and phone calls * Scheduling business and personal appointments and interviews * Bookkeeping: invoicing clients, receiving and paying bills, reconciling bank statements,  tracking expenses     and tax records, working with your accountant * Internet research and fact checking * Planning travel for speaking engagements and seminars * Maintaining newsletter and customer mailing lists * Managing website and newsletter ad sales * Handling registrations for teleclasses and workshops * Maintainin...

Jet Lag and NAMS 4

Okay, it wasn't a jet, but I did take a 747 to NAMS. And yes, I've been back for a week now. But it takes me a while to recover so you won't get all the juicy details for a bit longer yet. All I can say is I took loads of notes, hung out with some amazing people, and wish they didn't live so far away. I learned a lot and really enjoyed the sessions with Bob 'The Teacher' Jenkins, Karon Thackston, and Kathleen Gage. Of course all of the presenters were great, but those three I got the most from. And I had a 15 minute consultation with Mark Hendricks as well. The last NAMS I didn't think I had anything to discuss with him, but this time I forced myself to sign up. I was super nervous, but he was very easy to talk to, and he actually liked my idea for a membership site. I'll talk more about that another time. Once I get my notes organized, I'll give you my top ten takeaway points. Now the challenge is to do them, not stay in learning mode. So ...

Our Mastermind Progress

I mentioned in the last post that I was going to be involved in a mastermind group to help promote one another. So far we have met once on Skype and twice on a teleseminar. These are my observations so far: Our Skype meeting was a lot of fun, but didn't accomplish much. I don't use Skype often and the others did only for one on one text chats. When the first two members got on Skype, it was fine, we could see and hear one another well. As soon as someone else entered the call, the video capability was lost. Once four of us were on (member number five couldn't attend that day) it was hard to hear properly. There was a lot of phone interference and we kept getting dropped from having a group call. We finally gave up and called it a day. The next two sessions we've used a teleseminar service. I have a free trial for InstantTeleseminars so we used that. The advantage here over freeconferencecalling.com is that there were local phone numbers for the American members of our...
