By CEOMamma, on July 12th, 2011% Blogging is a big deal when it comes to building a business online, so naturally, many of the questions I hear from women entrepreneurs is, “How do I start a blog and make money online?”
First, I want to make this clear because there has been a huge misconception surrounding this topic. Blogging does NOT make you money. Consistent blogging helps increase your traffic, which generates a flow of a specific targeted audience (if your focused on a particular niche market and promoting your content…which you should be), who in turn, purchase product and services you have available for sale on your blog.
By CEOMamma, on May 2nd, 2011% If you are serious about building your business online and creating buzz for your business using Facebook, you have to accept the fact that you are going to have to work at building your following. Understand that just because you create a Fan Page or Page for your business, does not mean people will automatically follow you.
When consulting with new business owners, I find the most common mistake being made is creating a Fan Page without a purpose. Realize that your Fan Page is another marketing tool for your business which first requires planning a strategy to implement.
Before you jump right in and start a Fan Page because “it’s what everybody else is doing”…Determine Your Purpose.
By CEOMamma, on April 19th, 2011% Let me first start off by saying, my intentions are never to offend anyone even though I realize what I’m about to share may indirectly strike a nerve with some of you, because I’m calling it as I see it. Try not to get defensive, I’m simply expressing my opinion (which I’m entitled too) and I will not apologize for it. Hopefully, you will take what I share, and reevaluate your online network marketing strategy…quickly!
The reason I can be this blunt is because I know what I’m talking about. I have been a network marketer for nearly 10 years and in the first 2-3 of those years, my online network marketing SUCKED! YES, I can admit it…because since then, I have learned a lot and my success has turned around completely.
By CEOMamma, on January 24th, 2011% Social Media Marketing is like caring for a newborn, when you are patient and nurturing in the early stages of development, you will create a well rounded, strong and respectable business. Just like it takes time raising a child into a mature adult, your social media marketing efforts require of you the same commitment of time.
 If your goal is to establish yourself and your business online, you should first have a clear understanding of what Social Media is and what it is not.
Social Media is NOT:
- For everybody or every business. Just because it seems as though everyone is doing it, doesn’t mean you should necessarily jump on the bandwagon. If your not willing to LEARN the ropes and APPLY the skills…you won’t last very long.
By CEOMamma, on January 3rd, 2011% The beginning of a new year is always the time of year when small business owners decide, they are going to “get it together”.

Here are a few tips to get you started with getting your business in order.
1. Write it Down – This should be a no-brainer but even though you have a goal and you know what you want to do, you still must write it down. Having your goals on paper, including deadlines and easily accessible for frequent viewing, will help you visualize what needs to be done and help you stay on track.

Finding Your “Niche”
By CEOMamma, on November 11th, 2010% In recent weeks, I have been taking some time and looking back over the growth of this blog and my business. Since December 24th is creeping up quit swiftly and will make TheCEOMamma officially 1 year old, I’m actually amazed and pleased at how it has taken off.
To be honest, I never imagined that in less than 1 year, this blog would be what it is today. When I started, I was fairly new to blogging and built TheCEOMamma strictly off of a vision, a dream and Faith!
Within 6 months of launching, I began to receive emails almost daily from amazing women who share the same visions for their own businesses and held passions similar to mine, requesting my help. I started getting requests for interviews, guest speaking engagements and other requests to share my expertise with other network circles…how cool is that!
By CEOMamma, on October 25th, 2010% Most newbie entrepreneurs, internet marketers and small business owners don’t realize the simplicity of internet marketing or how it can be done effectively with little or no cost at all.
The truth is, keeping your strategies simple and focused on your objective will allow you to achieve effective internet marketing success.
Marketing your business online is simple however, its not always easy. It will take a lot of patience, tracking and analyzing on your part to determine whats working and what is not.
If you choose to brand and build your business by blogging, you have to set goals for what you plan to accomplish. Take time to plan your overall strategy. Decide who your audience will be, define what your subject matter is, know how often you will post and how you will market your blog (spread the word).

Over the weekend, I had an opportunity to listen to a bunch of cowboys talk about branding cattle. Their thoughts were rambunctious and rowdy as most cowboy thoughts are, but they seemed to get to the point of the matter rather fast when they chattered about branding strategies.
By CEOMamma, on October 18th, 2010% Blogs, we see them everywhere and almost everyone has one. There are personal blogs and business related blogs, blogs on your favorite topic, even blogs related to cooking and your favorite recipes! With all the blogging that’s going on, you may be wondering if it is really possible to use blogging to build your brand.
Absolutely, of course it is!
There are without a doubt a few key factors you want to consider before you begin using a blog to build your brand. Your blog’s title is a huge one as well as the description. Then there is the design and layout to ponder.
The most important factor aside from content and topic relevance in my opinion is, consistency.
