This year has proven to be difficult for a lot of people. Unemployment is up and business profits are down. In a time of limited employment options, even the concept of living “paycheck to paycheck” can appear attractive. It’s time to start seizing control. It’s time to stop watching small business after small business fold up shop on the corner of your neighborhood. It’s time to start taking our local communities back: one block at a time!

Work Smarter
Working harder is not necessarily going to bring you closer to your dreams and goals: it’s time to start working smarter. Successful Thinkers embraces technology and offers you an opportunity to expand your skill-set…for FREE! That’s right! We are working with members of the community, just like you, to share knowledge with one another so everyone can benefit. This is done through a careful balance of face-to-face interaction that expands into the digital realm and is connecting individuals to other business-minded people faster than ever before.

Get Ready!
This one-day event will be one to remember as you hear from success-minded individuals that will share their expertise with you in their respective field. Topics range anywhere from traditional business practices to new technologies such as Twitter and Facebook to help expand your business and develop new prospects or customers.

TOPICS INCLUDE:
Building Your Local Community
Social Networking, Facebook and Twitter
How to Approach Others About Your Business
Relationship Building
Branding Yourself Online!
Referrals
Women's Leadership
And so much more!

SacGNN finds Appointment Scheduling tool "Fresh"

I have been looking for an online scheduling tool to help book and keep appointments! With the high amount of requests I receive for meeting with people and being out of the office all the time,

I was struggling with a way to allow people view my calendar availability and SIMPLY be able to schedule a time that works with BOTH of our schedules to have a meeting.

I tried a few different variations but ran into some of these issues:

* It wouldn't sync with my existing Google Calendar both to AND from
* It allowed people to "suggest times" which took longer to coordinate because people wouldn't always respond in a timely manner and the slots would fill up
* It wasn't user friendly
* It didnt offer Widgets or integrate with my Facebook which is where I do a lot of business

And so many other things...

I tried free and paid services only to to find that I was spending more time trying to create appointments than I was actually going on appointments!

Then I met with my Chief of Technology, Dan Fisher who did some research and came upon the most awesome, user friendly appointment booking program "Book Fresh".

I now have a program that fully integrates with my calenders, and a "Fresh" looking widget that I can have on my web page, facebook, email and allows perspective clients to pick a date and time that works best for them. There is very little "back and forth" communication/coordination that has to take place and it is SUPER user friendly!

It's an intelligent piece of technology that is worth a million bucks but only costs me about $20 per month!!

Check it out and book an appointment! I will treat you to coffee!!

A question I always get asked is how to find what’s happening in Sacramento! Families are always looking for things to do, that are low cost and fun! Business people are always trying to find new places to network and meet other business owners.

I laugh everytime someone says “there is nothing to do”!

There are great places to find things to do in Sacramento!

Sacramento365.com has a comprehensive list of all the “Big” things happening in the area. Festivals, Concerts, Art Exhibits, Nightlife and more! They also have a “Free Things to Do” Section!

Get Networking Now (SacGNN.com) has a very comprehensive business to business networking calendar that outlines networking events, classes and trainings, community events, ribbon cuttings, chamber events, and so much more, every month!

MeetUp.com is another great resource to connect and meet people based on your locations and interests. There are hundreds of opportunities to meet new people each month in various settings! You will most likely find an existing group that would satisfy your interests, but if not, you can create your own to meet like-minded people!

CraigsList.org also lists activities and events that are available to you in your area!

If you are looking to volunteer in your community, check out Allforgood.org or Hands On Sacramento. Both sites list opportunities to get involved and make a difference!

Of course, InMyCommunity.com is a great resource to meet people right in your own back yard! If you are looking for ways to connect with your neighbors, attend a neighborhood meeting, check out the local churches, and recereational centers! Better yet, organize a BBQ, game night or day in the park and invite your neighbors!

Between the websites I mentioned, and places like Facebook, Twitter and your community newspapers, there is plenty of things to do!

So don’t waste time asking for an invitation, get out there and get active today!
