This Week In Business: Eggs And Issues Edition
To be fair, there is a lot of free software that I rely on almost daily: Google Reader, Feedburner, Joomla!, Wordpress… Somehow installing another piece of software to manage my social networking stuff seemed ridiculous.
This Week In Business: Thanksgiving While Moving Edition
I haven’t had much time to write this week because I am still working my normal amount but also moving apartments on top of that. So I spent Thanksgiving packing boxes and not eating the celebratory Chinese food I planned on eating after because the restaurant was closed. Oh well!
I am now thankful for frozen burritos and an internet connection I can mooch off of from the neighbors until mine gets hooked up.
I have managed to accomplish a few things this week, aside from not breaking any glassware…yet.
This Week In Business: Switched Around Week Edition
(Interestingly, Too Cute Tuesday has branched off into Wicked Cute Wednesday in St. Louis, which is more convenient for Sarah’s graduate school schedule. Be friendly with them on Facebook, too. The crafting and cocktail movement is spreading!)
The relationship between a small business owner and her accountant is important. They can help you make good decisions and help you plan the future of your business as they learn about your hopes, dreams, and fears. Sure, I am making it sound touchy feely but seriously, you end up working a ton with this person and there has to be some clicking if it’s going to be a functional relationship.
This Week In Business: Pitch Session Edition
To many, I am known for my charm and my habit of procrastination, no more so by my sometimes copy editor/ oftentimes friend John.
I posted on Facebook that I was looking for a few sets of eyes to look at a one page pitch I was going to present this coming weekend.
“When’s it due?” he asked.
“Tomorrow,” I said. I added a little wink, you know, for charm.
He proceeded to tell me I should be more on top of this kind of stuff and that’s when I told him I had decided to go to this pitch session the day before.
Another exciting week at Breaking Even Communications!
I will be presenting my ‘pitch’ at the Juice Conference for a chance at $25,000 in funding.
Would a little capital make me sleep easier at night? Definitely!
But just as important as winning the grand prize would be to get the opportunity to present in front of funders and get some feedback on my business. (OK, it might rock a little more to win, but still…) According to the email information I got, there are about 40 participants. Gulp. Here’s me getting my game on for Friday.
