Tuesday Tidbits showcases Inspirational Women in Business – Recognizing Local Success

GRACE BROOKE – Your Efficiency Specialist
About 2 years ago, I had the privelege of meeting Grace Brooke at a Big Event here in Sacramento.  She was one of the featured speakers and had a great story about her life and how she reached for and achieved her goals.  I connected with Grace Brooke in social media shortly thereafter and have been a huge fan of her Efficiency Specialist information.  She organized an online accountability group that I was a part of where people from all over help each other become more efficient and organized.  It was very effective and helped me clear up a cluttered area in my home office.  Her Facebook posts of organizational ideas are fabulous and I highly recommend you get to know Grace Brooke.  http://www.facebook.com/EfficiencySpecialist

AVA LEMERT
If you haven’t heard of Ava Lemert, you really don’t know what you’re missing.

Known as the “Singing Saxtress of Soul”, Ava Lemert is a many-faceted talent, blessed with an immense, soulful voice to deliver her own lyrics and compositions. As an arranger and producer, Ava is also able to create music for film, TV and commercials. What’s so rare and intriguing about Ava as an artist is that she is also an accomplished saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist, who enjoys bringing her music right into the audience. There’s so much more to this ’5-foot 1-derwoman’ of song. That might be why Ava Lemert is also known as ‘Tiny DynaMite.’

The glimmer of Ava’s many talents has caught the eye of some impressive names in the music business. “Working on a Groovy Thing,” the only cover on Ava’s latest album 12welve, was produced and arranged by Tower of Power keyboardist, Roger Smith. With a fresh arrangement, luscious strings, vocal harmonies and Ava’s sizzling sax, the song is reborn with Ava’s unique, signature sound. In 2012 alone, Ava garnered many regional and national awards and nominations and the industry is starting to take note and jump on-board with spin requests, appearances and much more for Ava in 2013 as a result.
Shooting began in August and resumed again in late November, 2012 for Ava’s first music video production. A beautiful, emotional, visual feast put to the music of her single “When the Night Falls.”  The video was recently released along with an all new look and promotional images and campaign and plans are being made for regional tours to support the single, video and Ava’s albums to date. With a busy schedule, Ava has found time to craft even more unique signature songs during her recent performances, and will be also announcing her first bi-lingual (English/Spanish) original latin funk boogaloo tune “Te Quiero, Mi Amor” which should be released in 2013. www.facebook.com/AvaLemert and www.ava.makesnoise.com

Entrepreneurship 101 … DAILY ROUTINE (Day 21)

Posted on Feb 4, 2013 by . Filed under Business, Entrepreneurship 101 | Leave a comment

We have reached the end of my 21-day journey to create new habits for myself and my business.  I’d like to thank those of you who joined me on my journey and gave me feedback and advice, both of which I’m very grateful for.  As I bring this series to an end, there is just one more thing that I want to add to our list of things to do for a successful business ….

~ Review, Evaluate and Make Corrections ~

Remember that your business is a fluid, living and breathing thing.  I see many people write a business plan and consider it “done”.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  Your business plan should be reviewed monthly to see if short term goals have been achieved and to see if long term goals are still on target.  If they’re not, evaluate where things are not going according to plan and make corrections to the plan in order to turn things in the right direction.

I hope you’ve had as much fun as I had.  Again, let me thank those of you who followed my journey and implemented some of my strategies for your own businesses.  I wish you much success.   Starting today, I will post links to great information all of us can use in our daily home and business lives.  I hope you’ll come back often and enjoy my selections.

That’s all for this series ….. Now to out there and be AMAZING!
