Where are YOU on the Path to Getting More Visibility?

Now and then, it’s helpful to assess where you are in your business and evaluate what you’re doing.

For the last couple of weeks, I’ve been doing that and reviewing the work I’m doing with clients, especially in the last 6-7 months.

If you’re like most small or solo business owners, you probably wear a lot of hats and can serve your clients in a multitude of ways. After more than 25 years in business, almost all focused on helping people with their online presence, I cover a lot of topics and that can get confusing for prospective new clients.

My Three Words – A Roadmap for 2019

By Denise Wakeman

January 1, 2019, a day like any other day. Or is it?

I’ve never been a fan of resolutions.
