We moved into a new, larger office a few weeks ago.  David had been wanting to improve our office situation and when this opportunity came up, we jumped at it.  Actually, David jumped. 

I “hopped” a little, both forward and backwards. 
“There goes our summer!”
“It will be great – I’ll have a much bigger office to meet with clients!”
“We have to do so much work to get it ready!”
“It will be a great, new space for our whole team!”
“Everyone has their own window!”

So, my forward “hops” were greater than the backward “hops” and we are now in our beautiful, spacious new offices.  We still have more finishing touches to do and a new service to get started – a video studio for our web clients.  It’s a big goal and we are excited about it.

David and I listen to CDs, or read about marketing our business constantly.  It’s something that we learned from our “mentor” Dr. Barry Brodil.  I’ll write more about this man who has made such a big difference in my life in a later blog.  

A recent interview that we heard with Scott Ginsberg brought me to his website and his seemingly endless lists.  Scott’s story is that he went to a seminar when he was in college and  decided not to take off his “Hello My Name Is Scott” nametag.  He has worn a “Hello My Name Is Scott” nametage every day ever since.  As of taday, that’s 2865 days and it has changed his life, given him a terrific, exciting business (No, not selling nametags – he’s an author, blogger and motivational speaker.)

Consider this:  Go to Scott’s website and pick one list.  Read through it and follow through on one action.  I picked 38 Ways to Make Your Customers Gasp!  I’ll let you know which idea I take to action.
