Jumping Ship (Temporarily)
25 Nov 2010 Leave a Comment
Hi, all! This is just a quick post to let you know that I am switching blog venues for awhile… I will not be posting on this site because honestly I don’t have enough time to keep them both up. I mentioned that our family will soon start our first owner-builder project — contracting our own home. We have lots of new adventures around the corner including numerous do-it-yourself projects and moving back in with my parents (along with 3 kids, 2 dogs, and 3 birds). Yes, my mother is a saint.
Writing is a great outlet for me and this upcoming blog is an experiment of sorts for our family. With that said, we need your support in the form of sheer numbers. Please follow our build by subscribing to our blog, joining our Facebook page, etc. (all of the links are on the blog site). If you know of anyone who might be interested in the blog, building their own home, or laughing as our family gives it the old college try, please share this post.
My goal as always is to entertain and educate so hopefully you won’t be disappointed…you can always unsubscribe if I bore you to tears;-)

Those That Sell Well Are the Most Easily Sold

I need stress relief this week, therefore I write. I have sorely missed blogging and I need an outlet…so here we go again. Please don’t hesitate to unsubscribe from my blog because it will have very little to do with health and wellness this time around. I’m going to start blogging about the house that my husband (and I – ha) are getting ready to build. It is going to be from a “non-handy-girl’s” point of view so it should be quite entertaining. Heck, it may not have much to do with building either;-)
With that said, let’s talk about marketing. We all have something to sell…it may be a product, a service, our personality, or even our companionship. You don’t have to own a business to sell a product. We all want to put our best foot forward. We want to be liked. We want to be loved. We want validation for the things we do well.
Not everyone is good at selling. Regardless of how great the product is, if it can’t be sold it fails. On the flip side, you may have a mediocre product but if you can sell it, you’re a genius. Case in point – the Snuggie (nuff said).
But some people are super sellers, master marketers, passionate pushers. They could sell a comb to a bald man. These are the people we need to be selling to…they are the most easily sold.
Love the Feedback...
