What happened when I threw out the baby with the bathwater? A great partnership was formed. In 2008 I had a nice website that I updated regularly and enjoyed top rankings from Google. But the proprietary website building system I was using was not only expensive, but also didn’t work very well.
So after much frustration I announced we were through and asked for the pages they said they would send me. Well the pages never arrived and I disappeared from the known Google universe.
As a small business owner I had a limited amount of money to spend on a new website having already invested a significant amount creating the original website. The search for an affordable easy to use solution lead me to WordPress and a great partnership was created.
It all started in 2004 when Business Connection Network was founded to help business owners find affordable high impact business building tools and resources.
In the late 90‘s as the Senior Product Manager of the Careerpath.com resume search subscription service I developed and launched my first internet products and systems.
In 2007, after that website disaster that took me from page 1 Google rankings to invisible, I turned my focus to online marketing strategies and developing WordPress websites.
I was able to blend my tech background and nearly 20 years of marketing and management experience both on the job and as an M.B.A. graduate of the Marshall School of Business at the University of Southern California, to create websites with a purpose and profitable online marketing strategies.
Working with corporations including Ralph Lauren and Clairol, and variety of smaller organizations in industries including, not-for-profit, fine art, retail, and holistic medicine has given me a broad perspective.
My passion is working with Small Business Owners helping them take control of their online marketing, move beyond a static online brochure and find the right technology to fit their business/marketing needs and technology skills.
Active in several professional organizations; I am also the host and founder of Women In Business Network luncheon now in its sixth year.
Having lived on both coasts I now call Denver, Colorado home and am an avid skier, chef, traveler and reader.
