Today was “bunch of meetings” day so we can presume I had a bunch of meetings. This week off and on I’ve also been providing editing assistant to daughter Elizabeth on her med school essays. She has gotten into the “less prestigious” schools now (whatever that really means) and I notice that there is a … Read more
I had a call with my client / partner about how I can improve my LinkedIn posts. Interestingly, the conversation led to us concluding my brand “The Digital Concierge” should change. The idea behind the brand had always been that I take care of all the digital stuff so you, the client, can get everything … Read more
Today while answering a client question about video I realized through research I could change my lighting. I moved them so they light behind me right onto the green screen rather than directly onto me and then the green screen. My office is small enough that there is sufficient reflected light to keep me lit, … Read more
I normally have a weekly “company meeting” to plan for my next week and I didn’t take the time to do that before today. Normally it would be Friday or sometime slip through the weekend. To me, as long as it’s before I start other work, it’s fine so it was this morning. I’ve also … Read more

My week ended pretty productively. I got some prospecting lists gathered to resume semi-automatic prospecting for myself and a client next week. Had a networking call. And finally had a chance to go further through a marketing class I had started. For dinner I was slow cooking some ribs and made a “Carolina” style … Read more
I had 3 client calls today and then my mastermind group. Everything went well. People are making progress. And the 6 of us in the group had a good discussion. There are now 7 potential people for that group. I’m not sure that it can practically grow larger. If I can get a sudden influx … Read more
Tonight was Thai Curry night. I got to open up a new batch of curry paste which always has better flavor. (After 6 months or so the flavor starts to fade). So dinner was good. I had a couple of good calls catching up with people. One was interesting as she confirmed she still really … Read more
Meatballs and red sauce for dinner tonight. We are happy to have frozen red sauce and with the weekend shopping I think we have supplies to make 3 more batches presuming we can keep finding garlic. I realized I lost track of time a little and birthday shopping for my daughters will be limited to … Read more
