I am a huge How to Train Your Dragon Fan. Not just because my husband loves animated movies and has bought me all the dragon stuffed animals that have been created from the original movies. But also, because dragons are amazing! And at the same time, they can seem scary. But when you try to get along with them, they can be your best friend! AI can feel a little dragon-like at first.

Read MoreCross Marketing and Social Media: Two Peas in a Pod
Cross marketing and Social Media just go together like peanut butter and chocolate… I work for a local builder who buys local, hires local, lives local and stays local. I also do all the social media for the builder. Lately I’ve been on a quest to promote local businesses. It just makes sense.

Read MoreFacebook Vacation Tip: Diving in the Turks and Caicos
New Media and incredible vacations… I never would have thought they’d have much in common until recently. When the Aggressor Fleet hit 1000 fans on facebook they offered a special $1000 trip on the Turks and Caicos Aggressor. For a diver, a trip on any of Aggressor’s 12 luxury liveaboard dive boats is probably on the short list of trips we’d love to take. So when they offered an amazing deal of more than 50%…

Social media, scuba diving, facebook fan page, Aggressor, what do all these have in common? They are the elements that make up my next great vacation…and my dream job!
