As you look at how you’re operating your business, look for opportunities to save time and money. Often, we are too close to the processes we follow, but by writing them down, we can see the places where we’re lacking in time or money.

I took a lot of photos both outside the building as I waited 1 1/2 hours to get into the memorial museum. I realize that some of my blog readers may never see the memorial in person.

In order to get the most out of your LinkedIn presence, optimize every part of your profile, including your LinkedIn Professional Headline.  This appears under your name on your profile.  This space is auto-filled the “title” from your last place of employment, but you can change it to say whatever you want.
