3 Girls Party
There’s a good saying “if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em”. I live in a county of 10,000 people and most everyone knows everyone – or at least their families. Branding is real important out here. Also, people want to see you can stay in business and are trustworthy before they buy from you. My…
Lasting Impressions
Yesterday I talked about what my tattoo looks like. Now, how did I choose who would do my tattoo? The most common way people choose their artist is by word of mouth. You’ve seen someone’s tattoo and really like it. That held true for me as well. My neice has a tattoo I really like…

Father’s Day in Our House
Father’s Day may be a Hallmark holiday. We don’t care – we take it very seriously. My dad has a bad heart, bad knees and early Alzheimers. Some days are better than others. All his days are numbered. Some days he’s a real character. Some days he can be an asshole. Most days he doesn’t…

The perfect circle of associates. The perfect clients. I hate that word perfect. It’s not working! I find myself frozen when…

Yesterday Was A Good Day
Friday, June 12, was a good day here at Debworks. I enrolled two new customers to Melaleuca. I accepted an offer to represent the media at a conference in Chicago next week. I completed two issues of my newspaper and posted many blog posts to the www.readhampton.com so my readers won’t miss a thing while…
Setting Guidelines
I am in the process of setting up the guidelines for the work I’ll be doing under the umbrella Debworks. It’s been an interesting process. I’ve from the school of thought that you learn as you teach. Now, teachers get paid. Students don’t. I’ve been a student who has shared her information with her friends…
