Friday, August 22nd, 2008Are You Setting Goals?
While talk of goal setting on any business blog is usually at the first of the year, we never like to be the same as everyone else. Also, I believe any time of year is good for setting new goals. Why wait?
If you’ve been keeping track on this blog, you’ll know I’ve officially switched my [...]
Boredom Cries
(Just a taste of my new career, for those who have been keeping track. This was actually a contest piece which had to be under 500 words, so it was seriously butchered. Hope you like it anyway.)

From SEO to Short Stories
Some might see my now past profession of SEO as a “waste of time”, since I’ve decided to start completely over with my career choice. I’ve never been one to think anything we do with our time is ever a waste. At some point, we’re glad we did it, even if we don’t think it [...]
Thursday, August 14th, 2008From Copywriting to Kid in School
I put my copywriting skills to good use today. And actually, I’m rather proud of myself, so I had to share.
Some of you may know I’ve had a heck of a time with one kid in school. Part of it is my son’s behavior issues, part the school royally messing up. One “tailored” behavior plan [...]
School Starting Already?
I really shouldn’t complain. The kids going back to school means I have time to work. Much needed quiet time without hearing “MOOOOOM! Make him STOP!” or any pointless arguments. I’ve really had enough of the daily battles, and I hate to say it, but I’m looking at the school as a really cheap babysitter [...]
Friday, August 8th, 2008Where Did Kara Go?
Sadly I think I’m the only one asking this question to myself right now. I don’t think too many are looking for me, except earlier this summer during the Iowa floods when a few had to email me to make sure I still had a home. Our area, thank goodness, was not effected. I can’t [...]
Friday, August 8th, 2008Direct Sales Helpers for Sale
***Updated February 2010***
No, this is not a late April Fool’s joke (unlike the time we said Mommy’s Helper was for sale….tee hee). After 5 years and a whole lot of work, we’ve decided it’s time to sell DirectSalesHelpers.com. Not just the site either, but the entire business. We’ve decided to go in different directions online, [...]
This could be dangerous
Oh yeah – real dangerous for me, lol! I’m thinking maybe I need to start building sites solely for the purpose of selling them.
I’m almost ashamed to say I didn’t know how to set up a wordpress blog. I honestly can’t say I didn’t know how but more like I had never given it a [...]
New Article Directory that Pays You
Okay Anik Singal of AffiliateClassroom has made me one very happy person, lol!
If you personally ask me, I’d have to say the man is a genious! Anik has managed to take two of my favorite forms of marketing – affiliate marketing and article marketing - and mashed them together to create an absolutely knock-out article directory. [...]
