Balancing Act
I am sure most business owners (at one stage or another) struggle with the work/life balance. Generally you have your own business so you have the freedom to work your own hours, but in reality you work more hours than you would like.
This is one area I really struggle with. Particularly as I work from home my business is always ‘there’ and I don’t really switch off. This has very much been the case over the past 6 months as my business has grown the whole “switching off” idea just doesn’t work. continue reading »
Creating a Twitter Landing Page
The other week I read a post on ProBlogger about Twitter landing pages.
Twitter landing pages are a customised homepage for those who come to your site via Twitter. I loved the idea so decided to create my own Twitter landing page. There are so many benefits to having a Twitter landing page. continue reading »
Manage your Tweetups with Twtvite
Do you organise events and Tweetups and on Twitter? I wanted to share a great and effective Twitter tool that will help you manage the event.
Twtvite assists you to promote your event, allow others to retweet the event, and also manages the RSVP’s. You can even create a hash tag for the event which is posted whenever you tweet or retweet the event.
I use Twtvite for the monthly networking lunches that I organise and just love it! It has made organising the event much easier I am able to track RSVP’s and also see who is retweeting about the event. Twtvite even provides attendees with a map for the venue and allows you to input the event into Outlook.
I would love to hear about more Twitter tools, particulalry for managing events.
Cheers

Central Coast Tweet Up – CCBiz is born
On Thursday I was privileged to have lunch with 9 likeminded Central Coast small business owners… and of course fellow Tweeps @BigClick_Dean, @Dictates, @JohannaBD, @JustinRob, @lisalent, @Nickbowditch, @suehenry, @transcribe and @Woywegian.
It was absolutely fantastic and very inspiring to meet the people who you tweet with everyday. The lunch was an opportunity for everyone to network in a very casual and informal environment, ie. no pressure and from the feedback seen on Twitter it seems like it was a success! Everyone thought it would be a great opportunity to meet on a regular basis.
And so CCBiz was born! The new CCBiz (or Central Coast business) website will be coming very soon! CCBiz’s aim is to provide informal (and low-cost) networking for small businesses on the Central Coast, whilst also creating a network to support one and other in business. The site will include a blog with small businesses owners contributing and commenting on their profession, details of upcoming events, a business directory and much more!
We have a number of businesses already involved in getting this up and running and we have such a broad range of skills between everyone. Stay tuned for more details… we will be launching www.ccbiz.com.au in the coming weeks.
