I think it’s funny that my entire work-life is spent helping other business people add more hours to their days and outsource all the minutia that keeps them from focusing on the goal at hand…yet, I’m pretty bad at it with my own business. Granted, being too busy in a small business owner’s life […]

One more reason I love being my own boss!
August 12, 2007 – 6:59 pm
I just found a favorite new place to waste my time online, Tales of Corporate Oppression.
I think my favorite so far has to be #38:
At one call centre I worked at it was policy to use the customer’s name five times, no matter how brief the call.
A friend of mine had a lot of trouble […]
Can you NOT click?
August 10, 2007 – 11:50 pm
Again, stumbling is dangerously addictive for me. I just came across www.don’tclick.it. This is very strange. I know that our GUI filled lives are not an ancient way of life, but this site sure makes you feel like it!
It’s got me thinking, what else has become a 21st (well maybe 20th into 21st) century instinct? […]

I vaguely remember hearing something about this on CNN or somewhere while it was on in the background while I was working on my latest website, but I see lots of people are talking about it online now.
This post from Marketing VOX is one of many that are announcing the probability of in-flight internet connections […]
A New Look and a New Outlook
August 5, 2007 – 6:11 pm
Wow, it’s really been since April?! That’s terrible. Here’s the thing…when you’re running your own small business (or four), multi-tasking and prioritizing are absolute necessities. Unfortunately, no matter how much you master either, there are still only 24 hours in each day!
All that said, I have always truly found blogging to be a nice break […]
The Road Less Traveled Update
April 6, 2007 – 2:11 pm
A couple months back, I wrote a post that got, for this blog, quite a bit of attention. In the Road Less Traveled, (minus the glaring spelling error in the very title that has since been corrected ) I discussed my latest marketing plan.
I wonder if anyone is marketing technology services to small town […]

The Road Less Traveled
February 3, 2007 – 2:37 pm
As a virtual assistant and website designer, I’ve been working on a what I’ve found to be a highly underused marketing tactic. I live in Lawrence, KS. We’re a college town which means there are tons of freelance designers in and just out of school. We’re also a stone’s throw from Kansas […]
New Look for DW Office Solutions
February 3, 2007 – 1:11 pm
With all the time I’ve been spending designing websites for other people with the recent success of DW Web Solutions, I finally decided to give DW Office Solutions website a bit of a makeover.
I added a bit of my newly acquired Photoshop obsession and am planning on throwing in some new tools for a “Tips […]
