The Power of Your TESTIMONY!
Posted by: | Comments
I was asked to speak at a businesswoman’s luncheon last week on the topic of testimony. I was very careful to consider what the Lord was putting on my heart, for although it was a secular audience, it was still a matter of Biblical truth.
When you think about testimony, what pops into your mind?—proof, evidence, witness, demonstration, authentication, acknowledgement, declaration, affidavit, deposition.
When we give our testimony, we are really declaring a true account of what happened when God appears in our lives. We are sharing our faith by saying who we were, and who we are today.
Isn’t this exactly what you should be sharing with the world about your business? It is YOUR STORY! As many of you know, I help you find your message (your history is, in fact, really HIS-story!), and I help you write, publish, and market your new book! You can become a published author in a very short time IF you use your testimony to write your book—or to change others’ lives, or to build your business. Read More→
MAXIMIZE Your Day Off
Posted by: | Comments
The kids are in school, your husband is at work, you have a ton to do, but you decide—very importantly—to take a well-deserved day off. How can you still maintain some of the more urgent family chores that need to be accomplished and still have time to yourself?
Here are a few tips and some encouragement to make every moment count:
1. Plan for it: Put it into your schedule so that you can get used to the idea.
If you plan ahead, you can give everyone a heads-up warning. Don’t falter on this. This is important to your success. Don’t answer your phones, check your email, and turn your cell on for EMERGENCY purposes only! Read More→
Increasing Your Faith: Building God-Sized Dreams
Posted by: | CommentsI
f your faith is dwindling, then pray for more faith. If you can’t believe that you can receive more faith, then pray for faith to believe for more faith!
As you work toward your God-sized dreams, you will notice that there are different stages on the journey to success.
The wilderness stage is one that occurs after accomplishing every minor goal, on your way to bigger and better things. At this stage, you seem to wander around in circles, wondering what you should do, who you need to meet, and generally feeling as if you’ve come as far as you can. This is when many people quit. They cannot persevere because they don’t realize it is only a stage.
I liken this situation to a PROMOTION. Do you remember what it was like to graduate? Generally people are happy and celebrate this most important milestone in their lives, but they are also a little sad at what they need to leave behind. Looking forward is exciting, but the unknown can also be something you fear. Faith will help you move beyond these milestone moments and bring you into your promotion, stronger and more confident. You just have to learn how to bring MORE FAITH into the picture. Read More→
More Time, More Money: 9 Easy Ways to Make Room for Sales
Posted by: | Comments
Time really IS money. Time is something everyone has and, like money, it has a value. How much value? That is up to you to decide.
1. Put a monetary value on your time.
How much are you worth an hour? Consider this carefully. Let’s say you assess your time at $50/hour. Now weigh everything you do on whether it is worth $50/hour (this is known as your “opportunity cost”). For example, is it worth $50 (my time) to do 1 hours’ worth of filing? Here’s a hint: unless you love it, farm it out! Hire a student to do it for $10/hour. Chances are they will be a lot faster while you spend time on what brings in the bucks for you!
If you are not working for $50/hour, then you are losing money. Keep this in mind as we go through some of the other tips in this article. Read More→
5 Business Problems, SOLVED!
Posted by: | Comments
As business owners, we have many hurdles to overcome. Here are a few business problems that may arise as you develop your business. I hope some of my solutions will help raise your bottom line.

1. I need an assistant and can’t afford one at the moment. I can hear you jumping up and down, saying, “That’s ME!” *smiles*. There are Virtual Assistants ready to help you with things they can do from their end— make phone calls, customer service callbacks, organizational tips, fax-outs, emails, and social media management.
If you can’t choose to afford one at the moment, simply check if there is a business/secretarial school or college in your area. Many times students need to build hours toward their practicum. Check to see if there is a match for you.
Remember, you don’t HAVE to pay them; your report to the school is enough, but as Christians, we like to bless! When they have proven their worth, your bottom line should go up. Give them what they are worth or what you can at the moment. Read More→
It Takes a STRONG MAN to Be with a STRONG WOMAN: The Making of a Proverbs 31 Couple
Posted by: | Comments
Nothing aggravates me more than having my husband referred to as “Mr. Kathleen Mailer” or as the token male/husband. It shows what a dysfunctional society we live in. I was driven to write this article so that I could shed some light on these attitudes.
Just as a “driven” woman can get a bad reputation (and we all know what people call women who are go-getters), men who walk beside and with them can get an equally bad reputation. That reputation is one of either being a pushover or someone who is a puppet on a string. NOTHING could be further from the truth!
There are 3 things that make a woman powerful, whole, and strong:
1. Her walk with God:
He is the One who ultimately moulds her, gives her courage, and sends her out on the path He created for her. He teaches her how to walk in His powerful presence. He shows her the way to true happiness. He gives her gifts, equips her, and picks her up when she is knocked down. Read More→
12 Tips to Becoming a Networking Genius
Posted by: | Comments
50-90% of business can be developed through networking and the referrals it generates. Networking can be one of the least expensive and most effective forms of marketing you will even come across. Here are 12 tips to help you become a networking genius and create a sales explosion in your business!
- Make a list of all of the networking clubs in your area. Schedule 1-2 meetings per week. That way you will have time to follow up.
- Prepare something catchy to answer the question: “What do you do?” Many experts call this your elevator close. A person decides in about 30 seconds whether they want to do business with you. You need something to entice them to ask for more. Read More→
God’s Provision in My Business
Posted by: | Comments
This quarter I want to get through to you a simple truth. What we say with our mouths (confess out loud) becomes our reality. If we use the Word, it does NOT come back void. God’s truth is always truth. Our ways of thinking are usually “stinking thinking.” In order to bring the truth to our hearts and keep it there, we need to change what we say. Are you with me?
“When we speak the Word out of our mouths, it not only defeats the enemy, it opens the door for blessings and favours!”
