Do you want to get on the first page of a Google search? Recently, my business coach challenged me to try various search terms on Google and see how my business showed up. I started with “social media coach” and then tried other related search terms that Google suggested. When I typed in “professional social media coach near me,” my business was on the first page of Google. Wow! Only a few other independently owned businesses came up higher than I did. Other higher listings were from places like Thumbtack and Yelp. In this blog post, I share some [...]

Thoughts on Getting Older

What are your thoughts on getting older? Since I'm celebrating my 75th birthday this week, I’ve been reflecting on what getting older means to me. Research findings vary in terms of classifying older people into different segments. The approach that makes the most sense to me is the following: People 60 – 74 are young-old People 75 – 84 are old-old People 85+ are the oldest-old Seeing that I’m leaving the young-old category and moving into the next one is sobering. Over the last few years, I’ve had a few more aches and pains. Yet, I’m very fortunate to have [...]

How to Improve Your Training Experiences

Would you like to learn how to improve your training experiences? Reflecting on my recent training experiences, I’ve considered what contributed to their being well-received. My advice relates to preparing for the training, delivering the training, and the follow up after the training. Prepare for the Training When you first commit to giving the training, get the basics of date, time, location, and audience. Book the training in your calendar and create a system for gathering the additional information you’ll need. Confirm the length, focus, and purpose of the training.

How Your Brand Comes Across on LinkedIn

Have you ever thought about how your brand comes across on LinkedIn? How you describe yourself in your LinkedIn profile is a key part of your brand. The items you choose to post about and the comments you make on the posts of others also reflect your brand. In a few days, I’ll attend an event with 25 speakers, including me. There are five speakers in each time slot and five rounds of sessions. That means I can select four other sessions to attend along with my own. I want to experience sessions from speakers whose brand resonates with [...]

Use LinkedIn to Grow Your Membership Organization

There are many ways you can use LinkedIn to grow your membership organization. These organizations can range from service clubs, like Rotary or Kiwanis, to professional associations to community organizations, like Toastmasters. Recently, I helped Nancy Winston (pictured above), a Toastmaster for over 40 years and a retired educator, to start using LinkedIn. Quoting from the Toastmasters International website: “Toastmasters International is a nonprofit educational organization that builds confidence and teaches public speaking skills through a worldwide network of clubs that meet online and in person. In a supportive community or corporate environment, members prepare and deliver speeches, respond to [...]
