If you have an email list of over 2,000 subscribers and want to reduce your email marketing costs, consider Sendy.  I've been using this email newsletter program since 2016.  It is also useful if you have multiple email lists to manage.

Additionally, for each "list" you set up, you can

Creating an Email Signature for Microsoft Outlook

2022-08-07T16:11:48-04:00April 7th, 2022|Technology|0 Comments

I remember when creating a professional-looking signature in Microsoft Outlook required knowledge of HTML (the language behind an internet page) or hiring someone to code the information and a website to host your images. I'm so glad those days are gone! Today, the process is much simpler; it took me 10 minutes after reading the directions and watching the instructions. You can create any number of signature blocks in Outlook. Your salutation will automatically appear on your next email without you having to rewrite it or your name. Plus, your signature can contain all your professional information along with links to your social networking sites. If you have different email addresses, either for work, volunteering, play,

9 Ways Advisors Can Easily Meet With Clients or Prospects Virtually

2022-08-07T16:11:59-04:00March 15th, 2020|Technology|0 Comments

In 1998, while living in North Carolina, I presented a marketing program to 40 business development offices.  Nothing strange there, but the program presented was taught virtually.  I saw no students in person. The concept of conducting a talk virtually was alien to me as well as pretty much everyone in the offices.  And I have to say, with the headset and other technology on and around me, I felt like a Martian! Webinars were so new then, and mine was 20 minutes late due to some towns not being able to connect.  As far as I know, the state of NC was the first place I knew of to create a platform.  They wanted business

Is It Time To Create Technology Boundaries At Your Office & Home?

2022-08-07T16:12:01-04:00January 7th, 2020|Technology|0 Comments

Create technology boundaries. Don't allow technology to get in the way of family time or be the cause of customer disservice. Clearly share technology boundaries with others. Here's a good example: The coaching industry has performed virtually since its inception in the 1980's. We meet with clients via online session calls. Our marketing started with us teaching using audio conferences.   We marketed online by posting articles to our websites, even before blogs came into existence, and online books or eBooks. As a coach, it was customary for me to ask clients to call me at their scheduled session time. After all, I would be in my home office, but my client could be sitting on the
