Coaching for Business Blogging Today I have a lovely bit of feedback from Katie Macdonald who was lucky enough to win the prize in my Twitter competition, which was a free 1-hour coaching call for one of my first 100 followers on Twitter. Katie is a virtual assistant (VA) who has just started to work […]
Inspiration for Blogging
What do you do to get inspiration for blogging? Sometimes we need to step back from the screen and remind ourselves what real life is all about. I’ve just viewed this amazing video I found a few months back and realised it was worth sharing with you. I’ve been amazingly busy recently working on a […]
Will the Big Business Dragon be Slain by the Nimble Entrepreneur?
The Big Jelly and The Entrepreneurial Revolution I attended a great event earlier this year called The BIG Jelly in Telford, Shropshire. It was brought to life by three energetic and determined women, Jan Minihane, Fay Easton and Judy Heminsley, all of whom spent many hours organising a fantastic event for home workers, freelancers and […]
Technorati listing – GV5ABQD742A6!
Getting a Technorati listing for your website I’ve been added a few clients’ blogs to the Technorati listing directory. I thought it was about time I added mine.

The blogging experience of a travel writer If you’ve been wondering why it’s taken me so long to do a post it’s because I’ve been heavily involved in helping one of my clients to set up a great travel blog. What with my current clients, new ones engaging my services, and delivering blogging and social […]

Falling into blogging
Blogging horses! I have been helping people with blogging for about 18 months now in a low key ‘I like what you did with that blog, can you do something similar for me’ sort of way. I find I have fallen into a niche which uses many of my talents and skills from coaching to […]
How scary is that?
After two years of looking after other people’s blogs I have taken action and started this blog. The inspiration for the title came from a client who said that every time she came to see me she would tell her friends that she was going to “see a man about a blog”. I thought this […]
