Re: Empire Building 101 Series: Growing a Prosperous Community

Ms. Freeman — Fri, 11 Jun 2010 11:19:13 -0000

Sometimes we tend to think we are successful and self made, but it truly is the environment and community in which we surround ourselves that lift us up and push us forward. :)

Re: Bootstrap Your Way To Online Success

Ms. Freeman — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 11:33:44 -0000

Call me a tight wod, but I only put back in what the blog has earned. nothing more than that. Granted if I want to make the bigger bucks I need to invest my own put of pocket cash, but not at this time.

Re: How to Rant and Still Respect Yourself in the Morning

Ms. Freeman — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 09:46:26 -0000

That cat is a cutie pie!

A good rant is always fun to come across, but many of them sound like haters hating those that are in a position of success.

Your guidelines should come in handy for those that like to rant, myself included....:)

#4 stands out for me. I have found that I am more outgoing and approachable off line ever since I've been online.

How much money have you made this year so far? How come you don't do monthly income reports like every other blogger? Who is your #1 blogging mentor?

Re: What Bloggers Can Learn From Artists

All of these points are key to success as a blogger or any other profession. I am curious why didn't you make this a list post? Just a thought :)

Re: Super-Easy Tactic For Increasing Reader Anticipation

Ms. Freeman — Mon, 24 May 2010 20:26:22 -0000

The #1 master at maintaining reader anticipation is Pat Flynn over at Smart Passive Income Blog. He uses some of these techniques I suppose, but his use of Facebook and Newsletters is spot on.

Re: How to Customize Your Greet Box Plugin Messages to Enhance Your Brand

Ms. Freeman — Mon, 24 May 2010 20:05:31 -0000

Plugins and widgets are a starting point and should be customized to mirror the blog or website they are on. I look forward to seeing yours updated. :)

Re: How to Live With Your Inner Critic

Ms. Freeman — Mon, 24 May 2010 19:35:58 -0000

I always say to myself "pull up your socks and get on wit it" and that seems to get me out of my funk and keep the inner critic at bay.

Re: What’s Better? Mantra Vs. Mission Statement

Ms. Freeman — Wed, 19 May 2010 18:14:48 -0000

I'm confused are you talking about a mantra or a motto? I think every business should have a mission statement, and every employee should know what the mission is.

Re: Clarity is the Key to a Strong Personal Brand

Ms. Freeman — Wed, 19 May 2010 18:06:00 -0000

Trying to please everyone tends to end in pleasing no one. I think if one has an area of expertise then that s what they should market and do well.

Re: Bloggers, Are You Building Your Assets?

Ms. Freeman — Mon, 17 May 2010 10:40:24 -0000

Great blue print for success. I see a lot of bloggers focusing on building lists and contents but very few are concerned enough with building relationships and collaborative alliances. I'm not saying its not happening but very rarely.

I haven't read Crushit! yet, but I do hear great things about the book and the man.

Happy Birthday JCH! :)

Re: Entrepreneurs Should be Respected, Not Loved

Ms. Freeman — Fri, 14 May 2010 10:47:53 -0000

This is a good point. When employees try to buddy buddy me at work, it is very off putting. I'm not in this position to be your friend and you acting that way tells me you have an agenda that you want me to get on board with and I have to approach you on the defensive.

Re: Blog Income Report, 2010 YTD

Ms. Freeman — Fri, 14 May 2010 10:23:47 -0000

Revenue reports are so much fun and seem to be so popular. Your ytd gross income is pretty impressive. The breakdown of how it was generated and the cost of doing business is a good eye opener.

Re: When Bad Things Happen to Good Bloggers

Ms. Freeman — Fri, 14 May 2010 09:46:52 -0000

I am one of those that has suffered a malware attack. I have all of my files backed up and saved on my PC, but quite honestly have no clue what to do with them.

In an attempt to fix the situation, I uninstalled WordPress. When I reinstall WP it creates a new database and a whole new blog. I'm at a lost for what to do with all my backed up files.

Re: [INNER CIRCLE] You Built It, They Didn’t Come. Now What?

Ms. Freeman — Sat, 08 May 2010 06:32:56 -0000

I built it, they came and then it crashed.....:(

Re: What Trips Your Unsubscribe Trigger?

Ms. Freeman — Sat, 08 May 2010 06:07:15 -0000

I try not to unsubscribe too often as I know as bloggers we sometimes can get into a slump, so I try to stick with my favs and give them a chance.

Re: There Is A New Blogging Star Born Everyday, Are You Next?

Ms. Freeman — Wed, 28 Apr 2010 09:39:15 -0000

"Super Star!" I like all four of those blogs and will strive to implement their techniques in my own way to my blog.

I also think that :"Super Star!" blogger is one that reaches out an helps other achieve small milestones.

Re: 7 Steps to Banish the Blogging Blues

Ms. Freeman — Wed, 28 Apr 2010 09:05:44 -0000

I only post on Monday, Wednesday and Fridays just so I keep from getting burned out. I feel you have to get out in the real life world to experience things in order to relay anything to our readers. There are those that are of the mind that if you aren't typing until your fingers bleed then you don't want success enough. To that I say 'hog wash'....;)

Re: Don’t Let Nothing Break You

Ms. Freeman — Tue, 27 Apr 2010 12:13:12 -0000

My sister and I go out with friends on Fridays for happy hour. But, this month we are on a no-alcohol diet (trying to get back in shape). We still went to happy hour and I ordered a glass of wine and let it sit next to my glass of water so I could smell, but I didn't drink it. Even though all of our friends around us kept saying, "Oh come on it's just one glass, not that many calories".

We ere successful! No alcohol consumed! Phew! Three more Fridays to go........:)

Re: Doing Things Differently™ – My Week In Review [Part Twelve]

Ms. Freeman — Tue, 27 Apr 2010 11:46:15 -0000

What!!!! Girl I sure hope it's nothing more than maybe some calcium build up. But, I'm sure after 12 weeks you have got to be bikini suit ready!!! I'm almost there, not quite yet. :)

Re: How to Write Riveting Review Posts

Ms. Freeman — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 11:35:55 -0000

I like doing review posts as long as the product is genuinely something that I have used with success. It would be even better if I could get the products for free, try them out and write my review. Hopefully one day I'll get to that stature. :)

Re: In Search Of The Perfect Bra

Ms. Freeman — Thu, 22 Apr 2010 13:20:40 -0000

I buy my bras from Victoria's or Dillard's and I get fitted every time. That means remeasured and the bra lady will make sure the bra properly fit my fat sacks. she will bring bra after bra until the perfect fit is found and then I buy two or three in brown, black and beige.
