The Joy of Attending Three Book Launches

In this past week, I’ve had the joy of attending three book launches. Each book launch had a distinct flavor and reflected the authors and the nature of their books. Since I don’t get to these events very often, I thought I’d share my observations about them.   Lean Into Your Yuck: 7 Steps to Mastering Nonfiction Book Structure by Alexandra O’Connell A book editor and writing coach for over 10 years, Alexandra O’Connell published her first book this year.

How to Be the Best Podcast Guest Ever!

Have you considered being a guest on a podcast? First, you need to determine if the podcast world is a fit for you. Do your clients, referral partners or others interested in your services listen to podcasts? Do you have a message, background story or other information that fits the podcast format? When I asked myself those questions, I found that being a podcast guest is a good fit for me. I also discovered that I have a knack for the kind of extemporaneous speaking that works well in this environment. Also, being a podcast guest allows me to inspire [...]

In-Person Business Networking is Back!

I’m delighted that in-person business networking is back! As an off-the-chart extravert and compulsive connector, it feels great to be seeing people face-to-face again.

The Fortune is the Follow-Up

Jim Rohn was a highly-regarded motivational speaker, author, entrepreneur, investor, and business philosopher.  One of his best-known quotes is “The fortune is in the follow-up,” meaning you need to follow up with a person to make a sale. This approach is also very relevant to business networking. Following up after events or group meetings is essential if you are to generate results. Recently, I was telling a business colleague that 70% of my business comes from networking. She responded that if that was the case, I must be good with my follow-up, and I am. My disciplined approach to follow-up [...]
