Machelle Hartford replied to Kelli B Schmith's discussion 'You're LinkedIn Status: Are You In?' in the group Writers Group
I'm on linkedIn and aside from getting activity emails, I don't see that it has served me any real purpose. Maybe I thought that it would service for better networking or possible business exposure, but it has not. Warning about privacy: It has a ...

You're LinkedIn Status: Are You In?
A new member joins LinkedIn approximately every second, and at last published count, over 45 million professionals are linked in. As far as I'm concerned, it's not "if" you're on LinkedIn, but what you're doing with it. I'd love to gather some fe...

Great resources, Kelli! Another inspiring article is from Jason Cohen: "Your idea sucks, now go do it anyway" http://blog.asmartbear.com/blog/your-idea-sucks-now-go-do-it-anyway.html

At last, the self-employed worker goes mainstream. It’s too soon to look fondly at the recession and give it credit for accelerating the process, but give it time. Until then, let go of the resentment and put your skills to work. The freelance li...

As a marketer, I preach the importance of being relevant. In order to be relevant, you have to figure out what kinds of things matter to your customers and prospects. I'm not talking about profit and productivity...I'm talking about issues and events and topics that make a person's pulse race. I'm talking about digging deep.

There's no better way to start than by taking your eye off the same old industry rags that pile up in your cubicle. This link will take you to my blog (Dig Deep Thinker) wh… Continue

Self-Employed: Ready or Not?

At last, the self-employed worker goes mainstream. It’s too soon to look fondly at the recession and give it credit for accelerating the process, but give it time. Until then, let go of the resentment and put your skills to work.

The freelance life is exhilarating, thrilling, and stimulating. It can also be frustrating, maddening, lonely, and shocking (at tax time). If self-employment is new to you, take a deep breath and shore up your resources (in this case, information and people). I've post… Continue

"Social Media Made Me Do It" and Other Silly Career Notions

I love a spicy debate over new technology or social trends, and these days it’s impossible to mention Twitter or Facebook without triggering a verbal throw-down.

Once as separate as church and state, technology and social engagement are now inextricably bound together. The whole notion scares the bejeebees out of people. Thanks to the near-mainstreaming of Twitter, Facebook and other community platforms, it’s a cinch to elicit a stream of grunts and eye-rolling from your spouse, colleagues and… Continue

5 Reasons to Follow CFOs on Twitter

Fellow marketers may call it sick, twisted or just slightly left-of-center, but I have a fascination with finance folks and CFOs. Thanks to Twitter and a cool cat named Ken Kaufman, I can now climb right into the left brain of dozens of CFOs. Ken maintains a list of follow-worthy CFOs who are on Twitter, which I've included in my Dig Deep Thinker blog post.

Do you know other social CFOs we should pass along to Ken?

Thanks Kelli,
I'm always excited to hear people like my blog and the content I'm producing. You might be interested in the new podcast I'm about to publish, probably later today. It's about naming your blog, and I take listeners through a five-point branding process to effectively name a corporate blog.

Help

A few things to consider before joining Smaller Indiana:
1. We want to know the real you...Please use your real name (first and last) when you sign up, or we cannot open your account

2. We want to know the real you...Please do NOT use your Smaller Indiana blog for blatant self promotion

3. We want to see your smiling face...Please do not use logos or commercial images for your profile photo

4. Events should be posted in the events calendar, not inside blog posts

5. Please do NOT post commercial video (demo reels), or Corporate Website promotions in your blog

6. You can post pretty much anything you want on your own personal page (self promotion, etc), and you can change the style of your personal profile page to reflect your corporate identification if you so choose.

7. Please keep all comments civil and polite. It's OK to feel strongly about a subject, and it's OK to be critical of ideas, but please refrain from personal attacks of any kind.

If you witness or experience any issues, please contact admin@smallerindiana.com and we will look into the matter.
