Hello all, and long time no blog! My girls were born on February 9th, 2010 at 8:03 and 8:04 AM. Graziella Violet Mallozzi was 7lbs 3 oz, and Giuliana Nicolina Mallozzi was 6lbs 3 oz
Well, it’s official – I am now on maternity leave. I have around 7 weeks (I hope) til these babies are born which does leave me with some time on my hands. I’m not sure how much blogging I’ll be doing though
I am a big fan of collaboration. I also really like cliches. So when you hear me say “Two heads are better than one”, what I mean by that is that there is a lot of value in surrounding yourself with people whose opinions you value, or people who can do something for you
I’ll admit it. I don’t always like to say this sentence..
I guess I could be biased, but I love the library. That could be because this year I was selected to serve as a trustee for my local branch. But it’s also because I have been going to the library since I was 3 years old, with a huge break in my 20’s – I rarely went during that decade.
I don’t know about you, but I greatly prefer the word YES to the word NO (unless the word NO is followed by “You don’t have to cook dinner tonight, honey” So how often do you say NO to your customers and prospects? I had a conversation with one of you several weeks ago, that had to do with how digital printing can allow you to provide more of an “on-demand” service to your customers
As promised, I am adding to my series on how to find new business today. For this next one, I am going to encourage you to look for customers where you shop
It seems like there are a lot of terms out there that scare people because they are unknown.
So this idea of helping you find new customers has been on my mind for a while, and I have been debating how to deliver it.
I saw a re-run of an old Seinfeld the other day about the mentor/protege relationship, in which Jerry’s girlfriend’s mentor is dating Banya, one of Jerry’s rivals on the comedy scene. It got me thinking about mentors and mentees, and whether those relationships exist today. I remember my first professional mentor – my boss in my first job out of college.
