Yes, I Cared That Twitter Went Down!
If you’re a Twitter fan, you know that Twitter went down yesterday. And if you’re not a Twitter fan, I’m sure you heard about it on the TV or radio, or you read it online or in the newspaper. I mean, it was kind of big news and all…. A lot of people are making [...]
View PostThis is very important to me:
I sent this out as an email to the readers of my Weekly Biz Tips today – just in case some of you missed it, I wanted to post it on the blog, too: I know that I usually come to you with information on growing your business, but I hope you will hear me [...]
View PostThose Michigan Adventures Keep On Coming
I’ve been in Michigan for a little over three weeks now and I must say … “those Michigan Adventures keep on coming!” For those of you who have no idea what I am talking about, that is a reference to my MySpace blog. My sister and I have a running count of all our adventures [...]
View PostLots to blog about today!!
I’ve been pretty busy these past few days… I left for a red eye on Friday and landed in Michigan on Saturday. I had seen my sister just a couple months ago when she came out to see me, but this was the first time I had seen the rest of my family in about [...]
View PostA lot has changed in 4 months!
Just a little over 4 months ago (on Dec 21 to be exact) I blogged about winter solstice and how it applies to your business (http://indiebizchicks.com/blog/winter-solstice-how-it-applies-to-your-business/) For those of you who don’t know what winter solstice is (and don’t want to read the referenced post), it is the shortest day of the year. During that [...]

When it comes to the art of making money from home, there are two sides of the “should I pay for this” fence. There are lots of scams out there and there are lots of reasons to be cautious. If you are looking for a job, such as a telecommuting position, where you work from [...]
View PostWhat I’ve Been Up To…..
It has been a very busy couple of weeks in Crissy-land! My sister was visiting from March 15 – March 22. It’s always great to see her (we live 4,000 miles apart!). But this trip was ruined by her **boyfriend**! Turns out the guy had gotten back together with his ex and was just using [...]
View PostIt’s My Dad’s Birthday
This is nothing business related – but today is my Dad’s birthday, and I just wanted to give him a quick shout-out. Back in the 90′s, my sister and I put an ad in the paper when he turned 40 (complete with a photo of him in 2nd grade and a poem declaring how old [...]
View PostMore Alaska Videos
A few weeks ago, I did a podcast on how to use viral videos to market your business. Since I get a lot of questions about living in Alaska, I made a small video to go along with that week’s podcast….. I had a lot of response to that video, so I made some more. [...]
View PostI gain insights, even in my sleep…
I had a pretty crazy dream last night… I dreamed that I was back in school and that I had to give a speech on the marketing strategies that you could learn from a tv personality, and I was assigned Oprah…… Now, to be honest, I am somewhat known for having the weirdest dreams ever. [...]
