“How to Make Your Appearance Count” by Ali Brown
Posted on January 26, 2012 by Ali Brown
Running a business in the new economy means that most of us spend a big chunk of our workdays behind a computer screen. And as many can attest, the longer we work from home, the fuzzier the idea of looking presentable gets. Our definition of making a good impression means we spell check our emails, rather than practice the perfect handshake. But, what happens when we land a big client meeting, or that long-awaited media interview? Below, a few tips on how to shift seamlessly between work-from-home solo-preneur to real-world, successful business owner. And don’t worry, you don’t have to compromise your authentic self to do it!
Do Right By Your Brand
Your brand is in essence, your point-of-view. The more confident you are expressing your spin on things, the more likely you will make a positive first impression on your ideal clients.

Let’s define the legal ways that you may protect your creativity:
1. Copyright. According to the U.S. Patent and Trade Office (USPTO), a copyright “protects works of authorship, such as writings, music, and works of art that have been tangibly expressed.” In the United States, copyright is secured automatically when the work is created. Use © on your website, your articles, and elsewhere. Some use the free product Copyscape to help ward off plagiarists who might “borrow” your website content. (Click here to read more…)
“Ask Ali: Do I really have to narrow my target market?”
Posted on January 19, 2012 by Ali Brown
Question: Ali, I’m starting a new business, and I know when you are marketing you are supposed to narrow down your target market. But my service truly could be used by anyone, anywhere! Why do I have to limit myself?
–Susie Smith
Ali’s Answer: “Susie, thanks for such a short and sweet question that lends to a short and sweet answer. It may be true that anyone could use your service, and of course you would not turn away anyone who came to work with you or buy it. However, if you want your marketing to be more effective and easier, you MUST narrow down a target market. (Click here to read more…)
