Seth Godin on Social Media

Social Media is a "Big Deal" right now. But can you REALLY monetize it?
Seth Godin says it all. (Read what I say after the video).



There is one person who has taught me how to really monetize your social media by always staying within your "brand." You connect. You make real friends. It takes time, just like nurturing any realationship. I will introduce you to this fabulous teacher in a future blogpost. Watch for it.

The Story of the Star Spangled Banner

It's the 4th of July and here in the U.S. we celebrate our Independence Day. So today I'm being a bit patriotic....

Many of you know we are a VERY Patriotic family. In fact, my husband has even written a book "Founding Fathers -- Uncommon Herores" (http://uncommonheroes.us/book.html)

I thought you might like this video about the the story of the Star Spangled Banner as much as we did.



Happy 4th.
