Most marketers know the importance of creating unique content for different social mediums. For instance, would you use the same exact copy in a paid search ad that you did in a tweet? I hope I’m hearing a resounding, “No!” And yet, many marketers aren’t fully prepared for what comes next: when a visitor actually clicks on a link and lands on their website. If a visitor comes from a paid ad promising a coupon — and then they don’t see the coupon as soon as they arrive on your

For marketers, the domain name system (DNS) can be a little tricky to navigate. If you’ve ever been tasked with buying a domain name, you’ve probably heard of terms like hyper text transfer protocol, subdomains, top-level domains, and more. Now, whether or not you remember the function of each part is an entirely different story … So before we dive into anything technical, let’s start with a quick deconstruction.

When YOU say YES to PURPOSE, YOU are acknowledging the following: •I know that God loves me and has a new direction for my life. •I acknowledge I am a sinner in need of a Savior – this is to repent or turn away from sin. •I believe in my heart that God raised Jesus from the dead – I trust that Jesus paid the full penalty for my sins. •I confess Jesus as my Lord and my God – this is to surrender control of my life to Jesus. •I receive Jesus as my Savior forever – this is t

Stop trying to structure your business and your life to make your friends, your family, and the world happy. You can’t make them happy. They don’t want to be happy. You also can’t make them like you. They barely like themselves. (Don’t believe me? Check their FB feed riiiiiight now. That’ll prove it) I’ve

I get asked a lot to mentor people into their God-given purpose. Because of my schedule I usually don’t have the time or space to do this. But once in a while I allot time in the year to take a small group of entrepreneurs on a journey with me to take their business and life to the next level. I know what it’s like to live paycheck to paycheck. (hint: it sucks!) I know what it’s like to not know how to get more out of life. (hint: this sucks even more!) I know what it’s like

When a pitch goes badly — sales pitch, investor pitch, plea for company resources, whatever — there’s usually a specific moment when it falls apart. Before that moment, your audience gives you the benefit of the doubt. After that moment, they’re tuned out. You can almost feel them turn against you. I’ve noticed that nine times out of 10, when things go south, it happens at a single, identifiable point in the story: The moment when you introduce the thing you’re pitching. Why

I’m remembering the feedback from the last VIP Mastermind, recall the businesses, collaborations and the new profit channels that developed from the session- and I think back to 6 years ago, having the scary idea of creating a platform to reach and teach women all over the world. I remember wishing for a chance to expand Dream Build Success, and hoping for a chance to speak more, and looking for an opportunity to reach women in London, China, Brazil, and Australia and every c

Word-of-mouth marketing is one of the most powerful tools in sales today, and yet, it remains deeply misunderstood and underused. In my extensive sales background, even when I’m working with highly experienced professionals, I find many can’t fully explain word-of-mouth, how to create it, or why it works. Even when they’ve previously benefited directly from it, they struggle to identify how it even happened in the first place. All they know is that word-of-mouth exists and th

Entrepreneur’s are constantly on the go, whether they’re meeting with clients, flying out to give a presentation, or running to a team training.
