Networking and Marketing Made Simple

About Maria Husch:  It was over 30 years ago in my small hometown somewhere east of Vienna. Back then I was already designing rooms and advising people. While others were playing with Barbies & Co, I set up "happy homes". You may remember (there was no internet yet) the small floor plans in the real estate advertisements in the newspapers. I drew them big – everything was to scale by hand because we didn't have a copier – and then we started. Armed with the mail-order catalogs, I set up these paper apartments (at that time we didn't have IKEA catalogs - wow, that would have been a dream). In my mind's eye, a family (my ideal customer) with all the wishes and needs ... and then I created "happy homes", a happy home. No wonder, Who would have thought back then that today I... helped shape over 1,000 happy homes in over 10 countries. I have already advised over 300 companies, from small one-person businesses with an office in the bedroom to large corporations with countless locations. brought a breath of fresh air into the classrooms of more than 20 schools in Vienna and the surrounding area. have a successful online TV show with up to 4,000 viewers per episode. I have an award as “ Businesslady of the City Vienna ” in my office, which I also received at the Hotel Waldorf Astoria (it still existed back then) in New York City. over 10,000 people read my messages, my postings & co, even though I supposedly can't write (as my mother still says today). I am a regular guest on the ORF, in Austrian daily newspapers, in magazines, and in various online media - always when it comes to the topic of space, order, and co. I am a qualified furnishing and Feng Shui consultant, and coach and also have a master's degree in economics. From all this knowledge I have created my very own mix of styles. travel the world and earn my money at the same time, which is what I always wanted. I am the founder of the I LOVE MY HOME community, in which hundreds of members take a small step to change their rooms every day and thus show appreciation for themselves and their rooms.

About Kristen and Affinity By Day:  My name is Kristen Day. I am a digital marketing and online business strategist, specializing in web design, social media strategy, and data analytics. I’m passionate about working with and educating driven entrepreneurs to create a holistic, effective, and profitable process they actually want to use. I was able to secure a remote position as a data analyst for an ad agency. This job educated me on the internal strategy behind digital marketing, but it also showed me something else…the MAJOR gaps in the online service industry with regards to providing business owners a holistic, effective, and profitable digital process they can actually understand AND use. I watched over and over again as my employer onboarded new clients into a multi-year contract, promise them amazing results, build them a website, ran ads on Facebook and other platforms, and then… little to no real results. Worse than that, the client didn’t own the rights to anything. If they wanted to take their business elsewhere, they lost all of their digital assets. Even if they could get the website into their name, they had no idea how to use it. Having personally had the experience of trudging through learning the skills and seeing the prevalence of the people we are meant to serve being taken advantage of relentlessly, I strive to not only provide holistic service but also to educate entrepreneurs about their digital landscape. I want you to know that there is a version of your business online that is not overwhelming, not scary, and not overly frustrating. There is a world where that piece of that business is manageable, profitable, and understandable.

It is beyond important nowadays to work smarter, and not harder. All too often we get sucked into the "scroll holes" of social media, and sometimes it's hard to get out. What I have found is that when you have a system or a structure in place in regard to how you utilize social media, you will be on your way to set yourself up for success. In regards to LinkedIn specifically, there are 3 ways to leverage the platform that takes little to no time at all: 1. Block out time each morning to do the things you need to do to move your business forward 2. Plan your content ahead of time so you aren't thinking about what it is that you want to post 3. Use a content scheduling tool like the one we have (BYOB Social) to take the content creation piece off of your plate Purchase my new LinkedIn Book Here: https://amzn.to/3wDn9yi Find out about BYOB Social Here: https://www.thetimetogrow.com/BYOBSocialPostingOfficial Sign up for BYOB Social Here: https://expertauthority.thrivecart.com/byob-social-monthly-subscription/

About Lorraine Duncan:  Social media is my “happy accident.” Before I discovered social media (and its power to turn perfect strangers into perfect customers, colleagues, and friends), I was building my practice as a business coach through an array of trusted marketing methods. I went to a lot of networking meetings, shook a lot of hands, tried to remember a lot of names, and did my best to follow up and stay in touch. I gave presentations and sent out direct mail and email campaigns. I even invested in a high-end, year-long marketing program so I could master the art of marketing my business. Other Things You May Want to Know About Me I have over 30 years of in-the-trenches business experience, running a family business with my husband. I know how demanding it can be to own, manage and market your business while trying to carve out some quality personal or family time. As a business coach, I know how to get better results by doing less. I can show you how to integrate social media into your overall marketing to make it cost-effective, time-efficient, and custom-designed to meet your specific goals and objectives. I have four incredible children and I’ve been married to my wonderful husband for 36 years. And I’m an amazing grandma! I love what I do. For me, managing the social media marketing for my clients is an absolute joy, because it’s all about meeting people, initiating relationships, being helpful, and creating connections where everyone wins….without ever leaving the office, meeting someone for lunch, sponsoring a Chamber of Commerce event, or passing out business cards at a networking function.
