Do you resist diving into the whole social media thing to grow your business?
In this video I’ll give my take on Lia’s question about social media AND you’ll get some targeted advice from one of the hottest social media experts around, my gal Laura Roeder (a.k.a. Rowdy Roeder .)
Wisdom From Laura:
Lia, it is time for you to find the great farmer’s market in the sky!
Um wait a minute, that sounds like I’m talking about heaven. What I’m really talking about is (believe it or not) social media.
I too am a huge farmer’s market fan. I try to hit up my local spot every Friday. (And living in Southern Calfornia means it stays open year round!)
I think there are two main draws of the farmer’s market – the community and the sense of exploration. The community piece is obvious – it’s a great way to meet your neighbors, build relationships, and just have a good excuse to chat with people. The exploration is fun as well – you really never know what you’re going to come across or what crazy new veggie you’ll get to try.
Here’s what is so cool about social media (and why I know YOU in particular are going to love it once you dive in
there is no other way to market that basically mimics hanging out at the farmer’s market!

I’m declaring last week’s post offering free business advice a success! (if you missed it, go here and get in on the action.)
I’m stoked about your amazing questions and even more stoked that you’re jumping in and offering each other ideas and solutions.
Yes, I’m super kumbaya like that.
In fact, I’m increasing the kumbaya by having my smarty pants friends answer your questions too.
So look out for some killer guest posting from some of the best, brightest and coolest cats I know.
But right now, I’ll kick this party off.
In the video below, I talk about the common mistake of trying to make money online so you can then do the thing you REALLY want to do. Click play to see how I handled this question and leave a comment if you agree, disagree or just want to gush on my rad video skills.
(Speaking of which, if nothing else , let me know what you think of this video format. I’ll be answering loads of your questions and I want to make this as valuable and enjoyable as possible.)
Be sure to watch till the end. A super cute surprise awaits you

Five days ago I brought home the most adorable, loving and ridiculously smart little four-legged creature on the planet.
His name is Kuma and he’s a 12 week old Toy Aussie Shepherd.
“Puppies are a ton of work.”
You always hear that, but you never know exactly how much work until your knee deep in wee-pads, chew toys, treats and the overwhelming desire not to fuck up this highly impressionable little being with bad habits because you’re too busy running an online business.
(Note: Dog training books are NOT written for people who live in NYC. There’s a million dollar niche waiting for a smart infomarketer who can whip up something that’s downloadable and tailored for urban puppies that need paper training prior to being street legal.)
We’re also getting ready for the Rich, Happy & Hot Virtual Mastery Program opening up in two weeks or so. If you don’t what that is, it’s my year long coaching program that’s crazy affordable, fun and guarantees you’ll get results or I pay you your money back. Sweet, right?
Anyway, between prep for Virtual Mastery, my Mastery Gals (you ladies freaking rock), normal goofing off with Josh and my new little man Kuma, I have even less time than usual.
Rather than stressing myself out to come up with killer content for the blog, I’d rather give YOU free business/marketing/life advice right here in the form of Q & A.

If you told me 9 days ago that I could completely make-over my business from the inside out, double sales from my favorite profit center, eliminate 90% of the stress and overwhelm my team experiences AND cook ridiculously healthy and damn tasty vegetarian meals for my family every night of the week . . .
I would have thought you were a squirrel who lost her nut.
Yet, that’s exactly what’s happened.
Nine days ago I thought things were OK.
But then I got a clue things were about to melt down…
