Hello;
I am Melody Campbell - and don't let the title of Small Business Guru intimidate
you (or make you laugh
). A long time a go I used to write for Lifetips.com and I wrote for the Small Business Section. In the beginning they paid me to write based on revenue sharing - then they wanted to charge me to write a new article for them everyweek. (huh?) I kept the title of "Small Business Guru" because I had a following and started my own website and eventually transitioned into a blog.
I've been in sales or owned my own business for over 20 years and love it!
Now I coach small business owners on developing systems for operating their business more efficiently; and help them develop connections strategies.
I like working with authors, speakers, and coaches who need help developing a "buzz" strategy both offline and online. Together we identify the buzz outcome and create a strategy for creating the outcome. Sometimes I help these professionals hire and train a virtual buzz assistant to carry out the daily duties of keeping the professional connected.
One of the ways I connect my clients is to get them on Internet Radio shows and podcasts to promote their book, website, training, etc. I'm always looking to connect with show hosts that need guests.
I also do some "life success" coaching - that is usually when we're working on creating systems that help the sbo operate their business more efficiently. Often creative sbo's or sales people have lots of irritations that they're "tolerating" in their environment. We identify these, eliminate the toleration in some fashion and the end result is more productivity.
I also have a weekly podcast at www.GetMoreBusiness.com as well as act as Production Manager for Coachville Caffeine Internet Radio Show. I'm always on the look out for inspiring guests.
I am a connector - it's my favorite thing to do - to connect people that are mutually beneficial to each other.
