This is the first blog post for a new blog – ‘Simply Said.’
Hmmm. Is this a historic moment? Nah.
Significant for you? I absolutely hope so. Over time, my hope is that this blog inspires readers to become all we can be; to think creatively; to go the next mile; to add personal passion to our business lives — and to our ‘real’ lives; to demand excellence from ourselves and our colleagues; to be risk-takers; and to be positive leaders among our business peers and life circles.
Significant for me? Well, yes, this blog is important for this company — and not just because of search engine optimization for the Lincoln Maly marketing website — and not just because I want to hear — or naively think you want to hear — what Joanne Maly has to say. But, this blog will be one way that I can share experience, learning, and insight with you, the reader.
These ‘Simply Said’ blog columns will most often be centered on themes relating to business, marketing, corporate communications, and PR. After years of ‘working at’ perfecting skills in those specific areas, I suppose you could say that much of my own brain’s grey matter has some good stories to tell and lessons to share.
The perspective in these columns is not going to be “How-to-create-your-fantastically-fine-Facebook-page-in-five-free-steps” or “How-to-be-the #1-Twitter-tweeter-in-your-city-in-10-easy-‘twi’-steps.”
The perspective will instead be an exchange of creative thoughts and inspiring anecdotes, as well as ideas that have worked for others. The posts will be written from a viewpoint of someone who has a thirst for the ‘just-awesome’, for the ‘high-five’ moments in business and in life, and for the ‘I-think-we-can’ mentality. The tone will be conversational and I will always welcome your own thoughts, ideas, and stories.
Welcome to ‘Simply Said.’ I look forward to our journey together and to your comments.
Please feel free to leave your comments in the space below. I look forward to reading your thoughts.
