But how do you initiate a raise conversation and is there really a 'best way' to ask for a raise?

Influencers are everywhere! With new technology connecting more people every day, it's nearly impossible to escape the enormous bubble of influence popping out of unexpected places. To older generations, the role of an influencer may seem unnecessary. But that's only because words have changed over time. If we put a "Big Movie Star" in a commercial, everyone would understand why. Those big stars had massive pull when it came to influencing people's personal choices. But times change and now there are unexpected people popping up with thousands and millions of friends...followers...and rabid fans in almost every country. Interested in becoming a value-driven influencer or hoping to work with one for your brand? Keep reading!

If you've been blogging for any length of time, you're bound to come face to face with the reality of your old site feeling a bit stale. I used to think changing my website around meant the current style or format was bad. But that really isn't the case. As we develop as bloggers and website owners, we grow and change. Our focus shifts from one topic to the next, or it becomes even more laser focused on that golden niche. Noticing our site is feeling stale is a signal to us to try something new. This trying something new is exactly what a branding refresh is all about. Here are 3 simple strategies to refresh your brand's blog.

Easy Ways to Increase Your Twitter Engagement

Rhys Keller — Thu, 10 Sep 2020 15:55:00 +0000

Most Twitter users are unhappy with the level of engagement they receive. Likes, retweets, comments, and follower counts are all far lower than hoped for. Can you relate? If so, you're not alone. Tweets are our way of virtually wearing our hearts on our sleeves. It hurts when we put ourselves out there- our thoughts, feelings, cares, and frustrations- only to receive silence in return. Twitter is used in one of two ways: to express or to engage. While either is OK, you might be using Twitter WRONG to achieve the results you are looking for. Here are a few easy ways to increase your Twitter engagement. Don't settle for any more discouragement!

It's hard to imagine a world without audiobooks and only those 89 years old or above (not exactly my target audience) could personally remember such a time. The audiobook revolution was an unexpected, slowly adopted medium for book sellers that is now responsible for more than $1 Billion in U.S. revenue.

Holding Back Your Best Work

Rhys Keller — Sat, 21 Sep 2019 08:30:01 +0000

We hold ourselves back all the time. We bite our tongue in a meeting when we know we should speak up. We keep our writing private instead of letting it help someone else. We pretend our artwork is just doodles to ensure we aren't hurt if no one wants to buy it. Holding back isn't just about fear of rejection. Holding back is an identity crisis.

Making Lists Brings Order and Success to Chaos

Rhys Keller — Wed, 18 Sep 2019 08:30:18 +0000

Have you ever had trouble falling asleep because your brain is on overdrive? It's hard to turn off the switch when so many things need our attention. Human beings cannot think two thoughts at the exact same time. We can move between thoughts incredibly quickly, and we can act upon multiple thoughts at the same time (like compound exercises), but our brains are literally unable to take two inputs and process them at once. It's this natural proclivity to become overwhelmed that results in the effectiveness of making lists.
