By Tyjuana Wilson, on May 18th, 2012%  Nope, I’m not referring to charitable contributions. (But yes, you should also consider giving back whenever possible.) The people in “need” that I’m writing about today, are those lost prospects and one-time customers of yours, who are on the edge, are reluctant to return your phone calls or emails, or are looking at a PayPal screen with debit card in hand, and skepticism in their hearts.
For some, the economy is still not where it should be and every penny counts. This means he or she is only interested in spending money on what they need. Well my friends, with some creativity, oh baby you, you’ve got what they neeeee-eeed!
By Tyjuana Wilson, on May 7th, 2012%  I’ve only been freelancing, officially, since last year. For years I have been known as the go-to gal for writing, from bosses who’d let me edit a letter or design a newsletter — in which I could only work on “when I’m not working”, to family members who needed, shall we say, assistance with their college papers.
I had always wanted to be a writer, but always needed a “job”, so I focused on working. It was safe and secure. Are you laughing, too?
By Tyjuana Wilson, on April 20th, 2012% Thank goodness my mom still loves me in spite of myself, and my failure to be the best at anything. And yes, even as a highly sought-after writer, I can easily list a number of better writers, counting with both hands and a foot. Anyway, like other doting parents, my mom has always wanted the best for my siblings and me. The best education. The best job. The best spouse.
Well, perhaps she’s giving up on the best husband for me. It is what it is.
By CEOMamma, on April 2nd, 2012%  It’s not unusual for us to start a new year off with a ton of motivation, high hopes and big goals for our business. Then before we know it, a new quarter is here and many of us start to wonder…where did the time go?
We look back over the past 3 months and start to realize how far away we have drifted from our most highest priority goals. Did this happen to you this year?
If so, know that it happens to the best of us and it is not to late to get back on track! Here are a few tips Finance Coach & Consultant – Antonina Geer, suggests to help you reassess and get back on track with your income goals:
By CEOMamma, on March 21st, 2012%  Photo Credit: www.lenonhonor.com That’s an easy answer, you must dismiss the naysayers simply because they are negative. Cut them out, let them loose, do whatever you have to do to remove them from your space.
It sounds easy, right?
So, what do you do when ignoring them can be a challenge because those naysayers just so happen to be family members? The dynamics may have to change a bit.
Here are a few tips to help you dismiss the negative naysayers in your life
Recognize it for what it is. Often times, people may say hurtful things without realizing that in fact, their words do hurt. Other times it is simply a matter of ignorance or lack of understanding. For instance, think about when you first told your close family member you were starting a business and they responded in a negative way.
By Sharon Fiberesima, on March 9th, 2012% Most blog owners dream about how they can earn money from their blogs without having to sell their souls in the process.
You’ve spent a lot of time crafting fine blog posts; posting on social media and generally doing all you can to make sure that as many people read your really helpful blog content. Steadily, you’ve watched your blog traffic increase as more people discover your blog. Your readers begin to interact with you by leaving comments and sending you mails thanking you for one post or for a resource you’ve recommended.
Although you were satisfied with this level of interaction, after a while, you started wondering how to successfully make money from your blog without losing focus of why you started the blog.

By Andrea Bolder, on February 28th, 2012%  We all want our businesses to grow and to be profitable. I know I do. But when you are one among many and a newbie among vets, getting seen and heard is more than a notion.
It is getting more and more difficult to make an impact online, particularly in industries that are saturated with tons of quality content and top notch entrepreneurs.
But it never fails – a few online marketers bust onto the scene, claiming their spots amongst the greats while establishing themselves as an authority to be reckoned with.
How do they do it? How can a novice – with no special skills or super human powers – rise to the top so quickly?
By Andrea Bolder, on February 21st, 2012%  One of the most common questions I get from busy entrepreneurs – who are not only trying to build a successful business but may be working a job, balancing baby, kids and a husband all at the same time – is how do I find someone to do my social media marketing for me?
Many will agree that there are just not enough hours in the days to get everything done and as an entrepreneur building what will hopefully be a thriving business – you will one day come to the realization that “I just can’t do this alone.”
So how do you outsource your social media marketing?
