September 1, 2015 by 3 Comments
Speaking about collaborating, this article is a collaboration between one of my Canadian joint venture partners, Monique MacKinnon, and myself, Patricia Weber.
Are you a solopreneur or small business owner who is frustrated about being able to increase revenues in this dour economy? Maybe it’s about time you give collaborating with others a serious look. It’s not just for the online elite or celebrities! We were inspired by the article, 50 Benefits Of Joint Venture Marketing.
Note: This originally posted November 18 2011. It was after a huge response to How to nullify these 5 joint venture nuisances: Are these gremlins biting you in the butt?

Shhh …. How the Quiet Revolution is Growing
June 5, 2015 by 32 Comments
I learned I was more introverted when I was about 40 years old. I completed the MBTI during a management retreat, and it rated me as an INTJ. My Italian family didn’t believe me although no one likely knew what introverted meant. Family and friends assumed I was a shy but often brassy Italian girl from Long Island.
“Oh dear, this means my sales career is over,” was my first thought.
Seriously, I was close to the top of my game being just promoted to sales manager. I had no idea this was a career path not to be traveled by introverts let alone to be successful in it. Guess those executive recruiters didn’t know much about this at that time?
Discovering my quieter nature explained so much to me. I had a flashback to my Italian family traditions. “That’s it. They were always my encouragers to speak up.” That would likely make for another interesting post about growing up as an Italian, who’s more of an introvert.

Plentiful is the operative word. Plentiful being abundant and life it could be – joy, peace, health, security, wealth or you name what is you want more.
Best actions and mindset for Abundance always grab my attention. When Denis Roberts, CEO of Business Coaching for Premium Coaches told me about his new, Group Coaching With Friends For Abundance, my curiosity kicked in. I’ve known Denis through LinkedIn for several years now. Once we talked, I felt I must interview him for you to learn about this.
Many of you know me from a popular LinkedIn group, Bloggers Helping Bloggers. When I heard the description of this new group coaching, it sounded close to what we expect from those collaborative groups. Denis has what he calls is a slight shift.
I wondered about coaches who might want to know what Denis does differently as a coach, and how he’s filling the gap of traditional coach training.
