Hello North Carolinians in Area Code 828!
Profile Information
- You MUST live and work within the 828 Area Code to join this network - Do you?
- I'm an Ambassador in the 828 group
- Can you commit to adding 1 positive item to the community each month? (it can be a question, an answer, an invite or really anything positive):
- Absolutely! At least weekly.
- About my Business:
- What do I do to earn a living?
After twenty years in corporations as a business analyst and communications specialist, I'm having the time of my life getting the word out about good people and good businesses on the internet.
Internet publicity.
Whether it's a press release, interview, article, simple website, reputation survey, search engine audit, photo session (for local folk), event publicity, or marketing plan, if it's on the internet, I'm available to give you free tips and beyond that, coach you in doing your own work, or doing the work for you.
Website. If you don't have a website - you'll want one, for sure. Whether it's for $0 a month on wordpress, or $13 a month on yahoo, you'll want one.
Can Searchers Find You? If you have a website, but it doesn't show up when you google the name, you'll want search engine optimization. If it shows up with your name, but not for the business you're in, like gift stores in Asheville, you'll want search engine help for sure!
Are there Articles About You? You are going to want information about you and your business on the net, with articles, photos, events, and more.
So much is possible... let's talk and see how we can move you forward, with or without my services! That's what networking is all about.
- About Me:
- I'm excited about the possibilities in this new world of the 21st century. I like helping others find their passion and keep moving towards their dreams. I've loved connecting people since I was a little girl, moving from country to country overseas, when my father was in the US foreign service.
I'm married to a marathon runner (26 in ten years) who is a video engineer (20+ years) and is pursuing his passion with photography part time. We have a rescued beagle who is a stitch, named Lady. My son from my first marriage is 20 years old, and in Indiana.
I was born in Massachusetts, and have traveled more than any human being should ever have to, and am thrilled now to live in North Carolina. Isn't this an amazingly beautiful state, with gracious, enterprising and creative people?!
I write (a lot, can you tell!?), and love taking pictures (digital point and click), nature, good conversation, and being hopeful. I love helping others, passing along tips and pointers if I have experience that can help.
And I love my work...
- My Ideal Customer is:
- I really enjoy working with people in the health care and the creative fields, but if you like what you've read here, I'm happy to talk with anyone to see if we're a good fit for growing your business profile on the internet.
- My Ideal Referral Partner is:
- Friends... people who want to see their friends succeed are some of my best referral partners. My friends give me referrals too.

Internet Publicity Helping Local Businesses Grow their Business
It's been a while since I've made calls, and hopefully I can get back in touch with at least some of you before the end of August.

For my clients, I've been promoting the creation of an interconnected web of sites all endorsing and supporting their business, each linked to the other, each adding their own value, and potentially reaching a different group of peo… Continue

Have you invited the people in your email address books to join inSide828?
Launching a new community has its own growth cycle. Some lay dormant with just a few participants for a long time before they start to grow, others grow like wild flowers in the mountains, fast and ready. Each community will grow in its own unique way.
