Comment on The Strength of Accepting Your Weaknesses by David Svet

Thanks Nancy. That’s a good point. You don’t really know the value of the people you work with until they’re gone. I think outsourcing is a great way to gain efficiency.

I never realized how fortunate I was to work with people who balanced my weaknesses until we all moved on to other opportunities. Right now I mostly work alone and have discovered I am not nearly as effective. Your blog post started me thinking again about how I might outsource some of my areas of weakness so I can focus on what I am good at. Thanks Dave!

I dig your blog design, did you create this yourself or get someone to code it?

Comment on The Fallacy of Brand Standards and Cookbooks by Ed Maceyko

Hi David,
After reading your entry, I felt better for a moment about considering less strict (but not loosie goosie) systems, much like the kitchen analogy and my own culinary method. In contrast your response to Andrew seems to disregard the potential effectiveness of a ‘meter maid’ system.
Stay tuned for some hefty news regarding the brand at THE Ohio State University!

Your ideas are exciting and very true that all nonprofits organizations need social media. However, it true only to a greater extend when we are using social media for publicity and for creating awareness about the nonprofit organization’s activities but when it comes to say that they make alot of money, donations and other material items it is not very true because scammers have destroyed this medium with fake information and most goodwilling people have become very careful and most of the time very scared. Some organizations and people would not even rely the list from information concerning financial donations or contribution for a course. Most people believe in paper endorsed documents.
I think and suggest that we need to review this domain of communication more carefully and introduce tracking tools/materials for information generated and shared over this media to make it more reliable and trust worthy and more accountable.
Secondly, information shared here is not binding legally and most people will not take responsibility over certain actions that is why these sites are always note footed with a disclaimer.
Thank you and hope to continue to discuss on this to come up with ideas to improve.
Bye,

Comment on Heroes and Villains: Inspirational Storytelling to Build Communities and Brands by Stephanie Rosenbaum

Storytelling is so important because it connects people. Many people associate brands with big companies, but really the smallest of businesses can use branding methods that will help provide them with great rewards. When a home-based business ties a nicely designed theme on all of there products telling the story of whom they are as a company and where they are coming from, it makes the branding work. Any time people see your logo, it’s branding and it helps build your business.

Fantastic article. As someone who has been blessed to be in the group, I realize what a blessing it’s been to me personally. I feel more connected with other women in my community because of it, and it’s helping me to get connected with others, even though I’ve lived here my entire life.
