So, I realized last Saturday after I had taught my 2nd workshop, that there was only a few days until the next one! Could that be right? I thought I had a week in-between? NOPE! I put them back-to-back! Silly me! And so set in the panic to promote, ask people to register, to share on their Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIN pages, to suggest to people THEY know to attend, etc etc…in one day. How unfair is that? WOW!
How did it sneak up on me? How did I let this happen? Well, I hadn't really. I have had the workshops posted on this website, on the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce's page, and I had been promoting the workshop as a part of the series, but I am seeing that people tend to do "one thing at a time". So I hadn't promoted it "as a stand alone workshop". I chose to not beat myself up too badly! But what I did realize, is that January…as miserable as the weather was (and still is as it's sleeting as I type), it did fly by! I realized that when I am finished with this "series" I will adjust that and give a week in between. I also have a few other ways to market things…but have really appreciated how people have helped out sharing the links! I was just on a Google+ Hangout with a peer Coach, and it popped into my head that I hadn't blogged in awhile…and WOW, it has been awhile. Well, here I am and I am using it as a way to also promote my next workshop AND the rest!! I'm excited about this one as it's titled: Just Because You're a Chef, Doesn't Mean You Can Run a Restaurant! How many of us are AWESOME at what we "do"? LOVE what we "do"? However have had no formal business training? Last night I watched this exact scenario on the show Bar Rescue! The husband decided he wanted to quit "corporate", she cashed out her 401k and wala…they owned a restaurant/bar! Whoops. Neither of them had ever made a drink or taken an order before! Long story short…they call in Bar Rescue. SHE is now "the owner" and the husband is the "silent partner". What does that have to do with this workshop…EVERYTHING! So many of us jump in and don't really take the time to truly understand WHY we do what we do. And what is it about "running a restaurant" or an cleaning company or a dog walking business or even a larger scaled business that sells a product that we "love"…so ask yourself: Who are YOU in your business? And is that really what you love and want to be? Until next time!

Guilty! I am one of those who whom you are talking about. Sure, just because I am good at artwork does not mean that I could make a business out of it and I learned that lesson the hard way. It's a good thing that I have strong support system and that my family and friends helped me out so that I could get out of the dire financial straits that I found myself in. Boy, was I trouble. Now, I am doing some graphic arts on the side and spend most of my time writing essays, poems, and even some corporate stuff. The difference now is that my best friend has become a sort of talent manager and arranges all the rates and payments for me. Lucky me!

LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter are the great platforms where anyone can share the information with relevant viewers. Hash tag is also a great feature in these social media channels which spread the news to the target audience.
