Hey Everyone,
What a pleasure to find this group. I know of Lynn from another online group and liked her practical, encouraging advice so I decided to join in.
I'm Dina, a seasoned mediator who finally got tired of fighting someone else's battles
In two short weeks, I'll retire from my work as an Ombudsman (think corporate Mom) to work on my relationship blog, and to finish the biz plan for my greetings/gifts company, Charmed Life Cards.
My cards are definitely different than the ones you'd find at Hallmark. It's all about dealing with real life issues in relationships. They're meant to prompt conversation. 'A clever way to say what matters to those who matter most' is the tagline.
I'd like to use my blog to generate traffic and sales for my online company. Initially, I'd be so grateful to learn SEO and traffic strategie then I'd like to figure out how to have an effective ecommerce site that includes an online community. I see that there are lots of posts that can help me. So, thanks already! (And, I'm open to any marketing/operations ideas for Charmed Life.)
I'm pretty good at online tools and resources. Like recently I learned that most biz libraries allow card holders to access their databases online. I can now search and download sample biz plans from the Gale Virtual Research Library along with other research data. Pretty cool, huh? Also, if I can help coach you through a dispute or negotiation, I'd be happy to help.
Looking forward to really getting to know this community.
