Cooking up an enterprise

Fear is not the answer

Fear or bravery?
Doomsday or opportunity?
Everywhere I seem to turn there’s bad news — layoffs, bankruptcys, financial disaster. And, when times get tough, organizations seem to cut and stop doing things important to their business or organizational success. Cut people, cut programs, cut budgets, cut services, cut communications and marketing. Been there. Done that. Doesn’t really see that it works so well. Consider that we all get to think more creatively. Creativity has always made the world g… Continue

'Tis the season... to Network!

Shopping. Eating. Decorating. Family. Traditions. More shopping. More eating. All hallmarks of the "holiday season." Well, contrary to popular belief, the holidays also can be a great time to make connections and job hunt. So, consider attending every holiday party or event you can find… to network! Networking over the holidays can have an impact when done without haste and with taste so here are 5 quick tips:

*Be sensitive to the season (Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa) with your greethings. Rela… Continue

Cutting costs now -- a business how-to

Lots of us are watching are wallets and bottom lines. Today, controlling costs is probably more important than ever. Of course, that doesn’t make it easy or simple. In a perfect world, it would be great to cut costs, maintain or increase productivity, and keep your best employees satisfied. But this isn’t a perfect world. So, I wanted to share some pretty good ideas from Tom Armstrong’s Cut Costs Now: Tips to save money during tough times. A more detailed excerpt is available at www.debne… Continue

Keeping it in-person while online

The online world provides for a lot of great connections. I've met cool new business people I probably never would have met in the "real" world like Kyle Lacy, reconnected with long, lost ones like college classmates, and found new ways to connect through Kelley InCircle and Smaller Indiana. There's a ton of amazing and free information like… Continue

Cooking up an enterprise

I was saving some posts from Chris Brogan on ideas for starting, running and growing an enterprise when I received a lovely summary of those posts. So, here are Chris’ Recipes for the Modern Business. They include how to evaluate an idea, tips for being visible and standing out in a crowd, buildling community and [...]

Get out and explore!

I’ve been having a blast out with friends and taking in all the city has to offer. Wherever you live, here’s my pitch to go play in the “real world”! Get off the computer. Stop texting. Go be with and see real people. For those of you in Indiana, check out the Indy Fringe Festival. [...]

The long tale wins the race

I really liked reading Seth Godin’s post this morning and wanted to share it. In this age of hyper communication and competition, Seth reminds us that slow and steady wins the race. It’s the every day, regular touchpoints that truly matter, not just the big announcements. the long tale is the never-ending story you tell [...]

In with open, Out with closed

I found Seth Godin’s post called the scientific method interesting because it encourages questions and openness - not defensivness and close-mindedness. He correctly makes the point that in many interactions, people tend to take a defensive posture - to defend the brand, turf or our job. The problem with defense is that it’s static. The [...]

Starting the day right

I haven’t fallen off the face of the earth… maybe just the face of the online earth for awhile. Yes, it has been too long since I’ve posted and I apologize. I have been challenged to live in the real world and the online world. But, I am back and committed to posting more often. [...]

Hi, Deb, thanks for the information on that Oct. 24 workshop. I would love to attend, but I will be out of town Thur/Fri/Sat. If you are attending, I would like to get together with you and share what you've learned.

Hey Deb! No stress on the gaps in face-to-face contact. Life's busy, isn't it? It's great to see you here.

Hi Deb,

Marrying online networking and networking might be the wrong way to think about it. Google Seth Godin's comments on Friend bots.

The purpose I think should be to use this communication build face to face networks?

Well look who I found on Smaller Indiana! Hi Deb. Remember me from the IGC/Vectren days. Like you I'm on my own...with a couple of businesses, TipTopics LLC and Chenoweth Content & Design. Drop me a line. I'd love to reconnect and find out what you've been up to.
