So Lynda who I told you about in my last post has posted a link to an editorial calendar that seems like it would be great for helping you with your posting and keeping me organized.

Kelly H Russo2023-10-30T16:45:39-04:00July 28, 2010|Mom Businesses|0 Comments

1) Have you ever used alerts for your blog or otherwise? How was it useful? This is something I have actually done recently. I read about it on this blog so I figured why not. I went in and set up alerts on my name, the name of the company, and a few other Disney sites I watch. It is interesting to get the alerts as I didn't know anything about them before and it helps me see what is posted about me, who did it, and where it was posted. 2) What keywords did you use to set up [...]

Over the last week I have been "chatting" with Wendy Navarro from Saige Nicole's Baby & Toddler Boutique on Facebook.

Wendy was a joy to speak with and very passionate about her Business. I wished my kids were younger because they have some amazing [...]
