Three part post today so I'll try to keep it short.
SEO: I mentioned awhile ago that I'm focusing on SEO (search engine optimization) as part of my social networking marketing plan and have been working on learning more. Today this popped into my email inbox which I thought might be useful to others out there: http://www.hubspot.com/seo-for-lead-generation-kit/?source=email_20090219b
It's a Search Engine Optimization For Leads Kit and it's free! Why, because the guys are HubSpot (the folks who put the kit together) are not only uber-cool but because they are also incredibly smart and know that by starting to build relationships with us small businesses when we're small and not necessarily flush with cash by giving us information we need, we're more likely to turn to them when we do have money. Why? Because we know that they're obviously experts in their field and they've been willing to help us along regardless of where we were size wise. The kit contains 3 hour long webinars along with an SEO guidelines book. I'm halfway through the first video and if you're anything like me - basically ignorant when it comes to SEO - it will likely be really beneficial to check out.
Secondly, if you're in need of a webguru to do things like SEO and build websites for you let me know. My webguru just lost his fulltime contract so is looking to pick up work where he can. I can attest to the fact that he's a really strong web designer and programmer, is very honest, and offers good pricing. Plus he's a great dad to two small kids and I'd love to help him out as much as possible. So let me know if you have a need for your own web guru.
Lastly, the new carpeting is in. And talk about customer service - I had a manager and sales rep from Lowe's come out to check on the installation after it was in. On the one hand I'm pretty impressed with that level of customer service. On the other, it made me more than a little nervous to let two strange men into my house just because they were wearing red lowe's vests. But they were legit and the carpeting makes a HUGE difference. I'll post some pictures tomorrow as I start to reconfigure the space. In the meantime, my dogs are having a blast doing windsprints downstairs on the carpeting. Since the rest of our house if hardwood they're not used to being able to run inside without sliding. It's like a funhouse for dogs!
