Thanks for the info, I will be getting you ebooks asap!
I think blogging is a great way of sharing information with your target audience and peers alike, and certainly goes a long way to establishing yourself as an expert, but I struggle with what to write and I get too wordy (academia for the last 14 years!). I also think that once I get a better handle on my blogging I will be able to draw on my content for Facebook an Twitter too. I can’t wait to get my new website Live (if not 100% right) and becoming a real work in progress and because it’s a Photocrati site (WordPress backend) and has a blog as part of it really getting some good content out there!
I enjoyed watching your presentation, and I breathe and sigh of relief that Im not the only one in the universe that makes mistakes or sometimes get it wrong. Seems as though, we as women, are created with a sense of guilt embedded in our brains, that maybe we shouldnt try to achieve our dreams, or something is wrong with us because we ARE dreamers. More power to the women that push through negativity and obtain what they want!!!!!
I just want you to know that I am so happy that I found you! You were Just what I was looking for in starting my new busines. Thank you So much!!

Very interesting deal. I’ve wanted to do my own thing for years. I think this will help me do it.
At times I do blame myself for thinking to much…I end up not doing what I want because no one seems its possible…I have definitely learnt something tonight,thanks.
Wish I could buy your pdf ebook (The Art of Earning)! Unfortunately, Paypal won’t let me do it, since I don’t have a bank account.
Any other payment method available (like credit card)?
Hi Lise!
You can actually check out with a credit card through PayPal without an account. They try to hide it a little – but it’s below the sign in option. Just don’t let them sucker you into signing in!

I really enjoy your blog and resources.SO glad I found you on the web. I have a branding question…why did you decide to use your name rather than make up a business name?
Loved loved loved your preso at BMAC today. Can I get a copy of your slides? Couldn’t write fast enough!
Thanks!
