What's Your Passion?

insightslogoMost of us who have our own businesses got started because we had a passion for something.  I think many of us get so busy with the day-to-day requirements of running a business that we forget about that passion that started it all.  We get run down and we stop working on the things that really matter to us.  Or we take on too much work and don’t have time for important, but unbillable tasks.  Without taking some time for tasks that we’re excited about, we start avoiding work that needs to be done and our overall quality of work suffers. – What’s Your Passion – Sarah Worsham – Insights Group

Also, I’ll be at Insights in Brighton, MI today from 2-4:30pm to answer any questions regarding social media, business websites, or the Internet.  Here’s more .

Get Your Internet, Website and Social Media questions answered….

If you’re in the Detroit area, and have questions about:

  • How to use Internet for your business
  • How to improve your business website to get more traffic, sales or leads
  • How to use social media for your business

I’ll be in Brighton (MI) this Thursday, June 25th  to answer these types of questions in person at the Insights Group from 2-4:30pm. Normally, consulting costs $125/hour for consulting, but I’m offering this session at only $20.

Here are the types of questions I can answer in this setting (not a full list):

  • Tips on how to improve your website
  • How to use social networks (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.) for your business.
  • What the numbers mean in Google Analytics and how to use them to improve your online strategies & marketing (or want to know what Google Analytics is).
  • Specific suggestions on how to measure return on investment (ROI) for your internet marketing or advertising (including Google AdWords).

These are not the only questions I can answer, just a few to give you some ideas.  Unfortunately, I won’t be able to offer more in depth analysis in such a short time period, but I’ll answer as many questions as I can (no questions about broken computers please).  I love talking about business websites, the Internet and social networks, so I’d love to talk to you about what you can do to use the Internet for your business.

Details:

Time: 2-4:30pm
