Ok…so you have to let me know what you think of that headline!

I have to be totally honest here…studying copy isn’t really something that I ever think to just DO…well, I think it’s come to the point where I have to do it. Mainly because I want to keep growing as a blogger and moving my business to the next level. Anywho… When I saw the preview of this new plugin- I KNEW I was going to get it and give it a go!...

July 1, 2010 · View Comments

Time for some more free social media icons! I really am a geek about the little things…what can I say? I got the idea for these icons from a subscriber, Mirna Bard.

Mirna was great about letting people know where she got the icons from (she referred them to my site)- so this was a fun way to say thanks for the kudos!

May 25, 2010 · View Comments

I’ve been debating for a while on whether or not I should invest in Scribe. If you’re not sure what Scribe is…you can watch the video I’ve done showing you how Scribe works. What made me decide to bite the bullet and invest in Scribe? Besides the great free report Brian Clark gave away…I’m at that point with this site where it’s time to step things up a notch! Not that it isn’t ALWAYS time to step things up- I am always looking at ways to improve things with this site- whether it’s more videos, new content, sharing valuable resources or simply...

I’ve had a few comments over the last few months about all the different buttons/options in my WordPress Editor (I sort of forget about what else people see when recording videos)…also known as the ‘WYSIWYG’ – “What You See Is What You Get”, so I thought I’d do a post...
