The Power of Life on Purpose

Thanks Jason for the suggestion and welcome. We live in Osborn, MO - which is about 60 miles due north of downtown KC. My husband works in Lenexa so he has a hefty trek every day but I work from home. (Got the better end of that deal!) If there is ever a KC 48 Days "meetup" I'd definitely be interested.

 

I have already taken some photos of the dogs boarding with us, so great minds think alike :). When one of our best customer's dogs went home last month, I sent along a printed 5 x 7 that I'd taken of "Alfie" during her stay and the owner was thrilled. What I don't know HOW to do (tactfully?) is to monetize this. I feel awkward as a "sales" person in general and prefer more passive marketing. I would feel weird telling a boarding client, "I did a photo shoot with Fluffy during her stay and she had a ball! The pics are lovely, do you want to buy them?"  -- Obviously not phrased very well :), but you get the idea. The actual photography and computer editing, I am comfortable with. The "selling" aspect... not so much!

 

I'm going to check out your website and podcasts (I'm a podcast junky since I can listen while walking the dogs and doing "other" work at the same time!) Thanks so much for the welcome and I look forward to learning more and hopefully contributing some useful things too.

Awesome video! Thank you for sharing it.

Hello Jason,

I just finished reading 'No More Mondays Post It Revolution' and I wanted to say thank you for your success story - I found it very encouraging. It helped to learn I'm not alone as I read real-life accounts from people on a similar journey - some of whom I've begun to meet through 48days.net. I'm also enjoying the information and resources on your web site - excellent site.

Blessings,

Michael

Hello Jason, it was great meeting Kathy and you at the facilitator certification seminar. I checked out your website and very impressed. Its very clean and easy to navigate. I would like to talk with you sometime to learn how you set it up.
