Free Word Processing Software
Posted by: | Comments
Our class planners, includes several Microsoft Word Documents such as the step-by-step customer instructions, customer summary document and a marketing flyer. You can use the instructions to send home with customers so they have the confidence and inspiration to continue stamping on their own. We offer the documents in this format in case you want to change the supplies used or supply only part of the instructions. But, most word processing software programs don’t come cheaply. I use Microsoft Word 2007 but it comes at a hefty price tag if it wasn’t preinstalled on your computer. I wanted to give our customers another option so if you’re looking for a top-notch word processing software that is absolutely FREE, take a look at Google Docs.

How a Positive Attitude Can Help Your Business
Posted by: | CommentsDeveloping a positive attitude will help you grow your business and achieve success. I know this…I just need to remind myself sometimes. Everyone has times when things in their business do not go as planned. If you have a positive attitude, you will be able to pass those obstacles and get back on track. When you have a positive attitude, you will feel more confident in yourself and your business abilities.
An Easy & Heathly Habit
Posted by: | Comments
I’m really bad about forming habits, especially healthy habits! So I was so surprised this worked for me that I just had to share with all my demonstrator friends.
We all know how drinking 8 glasses of water a day is a healthy habit. But, you may have a difficult time with as I did. Try this habit out for a month and see if it doesn’t work for you.

How To Create An Inspiring Workspace
Posted by: | CommentsWhen you work from home, it is easy for the lines between “work” and “home” to get blurred. You may find yourself constantly interrupted by family, fiends, and neighbors. It may also be harder to concentrate on “work” when you have a sink full of dishes and other chores to take care of. I don’t have that problem, but I understand other do.

Find a Balance
Posted by: | CommentsAs a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, we have the best of both worlds, don’t we? We are able to live our life as we choose, striving to attain our goals, hopes and dreams. Of course with all of this freedom and empowerment comes a heady dose of stress. Entrepreneurs have the common characteristic of biting off more than they can chew. I blame my father personally for this since he is the one that instilled this trait in me.

What’s in store for 2010
Posted by: | Comments
Wow, 2009 is ending as I write this and we are about to begin a new year. Hubby and I were planning a night out for New Year’s Eve, but decided instead to stay in for a cozy night. So I’m cozy on the couch with a hot mug of tea, my planner, and pen. (and laptop is very near too!)
