There is a common thread that I see often when talking with business owners about why they hate sales. While putting together packages, service bundles, product bundles, specials, etc… has always come a bit second nature to me, I realize this is not the case for everyone. I believe that the majority of small business
I hear so often from potential clients that they either aren’t ready to hire someone to work on a logo for them, or they waited so long because they felt they simply couldn’t give someone the right direction to achieve the results they wanted. Because they simply didn’t know what it was that they wanted!
A year or so ago I attended a business seminar put on by a photographer in my local area.

The world we live in today is busy, stuffed full of responsibilities and all of the ‘adulting’. The overwhelming response to this fullness has been the development of ‘life hacks’. They span across every facet of your life; hacks to improve your relationship, hacks to improve your health, your cooking, the amount of time you
For as long as I can remember, I have had the privilege of being inspired over and over again by the entrepreneurs in my life. They seemed to always be working, but it was never really perceived as a bad thing. As a kid, I got to join in on the fun! I picked up
