Social Platform Fatigue

I know we are supposed to be thrilled over every new social media platform  and service that comes out. They are all supposed to be fun and connect us to our most powerful, authentic, creative, in -the-know selves.

Each is supposed to be better than the other, each is supposed to be so innovative that you cant livwithout it. They have a pages for invitations trying to make it seem like something you love.I am getting social media platform fatigue. I am burnt out from trying the new stuff, and giving yet another platform my passwords and access to my facebook and twitter accounts.

I am tired of trying to download yet another app to my iPhone.  Linkedin will post to both my twitter and facebook accounts. It will add pictures. Cinch can add the audio. I am ready for web 3.0 I don’t want to spend my time continually updating the same types of solution over and over. All they do it is post. Really? Maybe our businesses would do better, if we spent more time learning how to close sales in this economy. Read more

What are you Really doing?

I just came back from an event called Advance or Die. The impact was real and lasting. Why? Because I needed to tighten some things up. I needed to watch my schedule and be more productive. We tell ourselves we are working but are we really? I actually was thinking through and had my schedule and was debating with myself about adding (or not adding) my drive time as working. Drive time is not working. It’s going to work. Sure a few phone calls can make it more productive but really, let’s get a grip. In and of itself you will not make money driving unless you drive a limo or cab.

Speaking of cabs, what the heck is that smell? Why doesn’t the cabby smell it? Why dont they just carry febreeze or air freshener? This is why celebs take town cars I guess.

Back to you and me. No driving is just commuting. Let’s stop fooling ourselves about how much facebooking gets us business, and get to actually bringing in more and new business!
