Focused Four

Many of us have heard about the Power Hour method - No matter how busy you are, schedule your day in such a way that you can pause life and focus all of your attention into a 60 minute block of hardcore, laser focused, WORK. It’s an awesome option for those of you that are juggling mommy-hood with working or running your own business. Or maybe for those of you still at a day job but working diligently to advance a side business. However, studies show that at the 60-minute mark most people’s brain is just getting warmed up. I don’t know about you but when I get into a groove, I hate being interrupted! My mind is similar to my minivan’s engine on a super cold day. It’s slow and loud when I start it up, but the longer it runs, the fast and smoother it runs! (Minivan moms unite!) So is it possible? Is there any chance at all you could work in 4-hour blocks? It’s worth looking into. For those of you that have the ability to set your own schedule, here are a few tips on how I would do it… better yet, how I [...]

5 Tips to Prepare Your Business Before Baby

By Michelle Myers|2020-05-08T15:44:06-04:00November 1st, 2016|Business, Family|

If you’re a first time mom, hopefully, I’m not the first to break the news: Life as you know it is about to change forever…in the best way possible! In fact, I remember my dad telling me when I got pregnant with my son, Noah: “You will never pray the same, and you will never sleep the same.” He was 100% spot on! Entrepreneur life doesn’t come with maternity leave…but we need it! So here are my top 5 tips for your business to run “business as usual” while you enjoy a slower work season and all the snuggles, joy…and exhaustion a baby brings. 1. Work ahead as much as possible. Even though I “knew” what to expect when my second son was born, I remember feeling overwhelmed with the “constantness” of newborn life. Anything you can do to get ahead (without compromising your priorities, of course) will be beneficial. For example, as I’m typing this, I still have a baby in my belly, and while you’re reading it, Shea is several months old. Blogging is a re-occurring task of mine, so before Shea was born, I wrote all of my blogs for the remainder of 2016. 2. Empower [...]

3 Tips to Writing Better Instagram Captions

By Michelle Myers|2020-05-08T15:44:09-04:00October 27th, 2016|Business|

Feeling overwhelmed by having to produce constant content for your Instagram? Sometimes it can feel exhausting coming up with original captions that your audience will connect with day after day. Here are 3 tips to help simplify the process so you can spend more time doing what you do best and let your Instagram content be a helpful tool instead of a frustrating distraction! 1. Add value. To ensure your caption is always bringing value to your audience, ask yourself: Does this educate, inspire, give a behind the scenes look, or build community? If the answer is no, it will quickly reveal that you may be posting, just to post, without offering any true value to those seeing and reading your content. 2. Create interaction. How so? If you want people to not only like your posts, but engage with them via comments or reposts, you have to add a call to action they will resonate with. People love to give input (when they know their input is appreciated), love to give shout outs to their friends, and love to re-post or share content that helps identify them as a person. Here are just a few examples: What's your [...]

When Your Job Leaves You Unfulfilled

By Michelle Myers|2020-05-08T15:44:25-04:00October 20th, 2016|Business|

“I just feel so unfulfilled in my current job. I know I can do so much more.” Can you relate? Around 75% of my consulting calls begin with words similar to this. So I thought these two reminders might be helpful for everyone. Truth #1: Your job was never meant to fulfill you. That’s God’s job. Yes, God created us for work. His Word gives plenty of instruction against laziness. But the Bible never tells us to find our identity, our security or our worth in the jobs we do. Those things are only available through Him. So if we look to our work to make us feel valuable, we’re never going to be satisfied. We might as well volunteer to enter into a never-ending black hole of discontentment. But God offers the satisfaction we’re longing for in Him alone – simply by basking in His presence and our belief in Him. Meditate on these sweet words of real fulfillment: “Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to Me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in Me shall never thirst.” – John 6:35 “In Your presence, there is fullness of joy; at Your right [...]

5 Tips for Creating Better Facebook Banners

By Michelle Myers|2020-05-08T15:44:33-04:00October 18th, 2016|Branding, Business|

Your Facebook banner is the most important picture on your Facebook business page. Consider it your first impression! It’s the first picture that people see when they visit your page. A Facebook banner should be changed every couple of months so that people see a fresh new look when they go to your page, if not sooner depending on if it needs to be updated with relevant information. Here are some tips to keep in mind when creating and designing your Facebook banner: 1. Show your brand. Show your brand in a creative, clear way. What you sell, promote, or do should be immediately obvious. Your banner is the prefect place to SHOW your brand in a picture. You can also incorporate seasons and holidays to make your banner festive! 2. Don’t use too much text. Over half of Facebook’s content is images and and visual content. However, too much text on a picture looks messy. Instead, use a fun, creative photo to truly show what your business or ministry is about. 3. Promote upcoming events or products. Changing your banner often helps to make your page show up in people’s newsfeed. Your banner [...]
