I haven't posted a daily gratitude in a few days, but never fear, I'm feeling the love. I've been noticing little acts of kindness and generosity, little doses of thankfulness everywhere.
Today's gratitude goes out to my friend and publicist, Tracey Paradiso.
I've never met Tracey in person, but we've spent a lot of time getting to know each other online and on the phone.
The first thing I noticed about Tracey from the photos I saw, was her eyes. Tracey has these big, sensitive, gorgeous eyes through which her gentle spirit shines.
Tracey is smart, outrageously funny, sensitive, professional, and generous. In addition to awesome press releases, she's a poetry whiz. The most recent press release Tracey has written for me is listed here: http://www.prweb.com/releases/2005/8/prweb271113.htm.
Because of my efforts and those of amazing people like Tracey (and many others who are supporting me on this marketing makeover), my blog readership has tripled, I am selling a lot of shortbread (amazingly, without a functional, live e-commerce site), I have landed some freelance copywriting work, and I have discovered a perfect-for-me business/career opportunity (more about that some other time), and I have plenty of time to do the things I love best: marketing and writing.
It takes a network of supportive people to achieve an entrepreneurial dream. I'm glad Tracey's in my network. If you need a savvy publicist with a brilliant soul, contact me and I'll put you in touch with Tracey.
Ann - I JUST discovered this post, and I am so happy and humbled. You are the BEST kind of person to partner with in any endeavor, as far as I'm concerned. It's been an absolute pleasure to assist you in promoting your very fine business. Hugs!
