Phoenix Industry Experts, Leaders, and Entrepreneurs Blog

After a recent networking event, the thought came to mind again, as it often does, who the heck do you think you are fooling with that picture of you? You know what I'm talking about. You pick up a business card or look at the website and on the "About Us" page is a younger version of the person you are having a meeting with. Not a wrinkle on the photo, not a grey hair to be found. (In all fairness, my dark curly locks are still curly. But the dark comes out of a box.)

I don't ever do anything twice ... so when I actually do something thrice (sure, that's a word!), it has to be mind blowing. 

Join the Exchange Club of Tempe for the Healing Field Casino Night Fundraiser

Honoring the nearly 3,000 lives lost on September 11, 2001, the Exchange Club of Tempe (a registered tax exempt 501(c)(3), Tax ID #74-3122542), is preparing to host their 13th annual 9/11 Healing Field Memorial at Tempe Beach Park in Tempe Arizona.

This undertaking requires months of intense planning with municipalities, fire, police, and many more entities. The event also requires a large amount of fundraising.

Got a great email from one of our members and I wanted to share his question and my response in case it can help you as well ... 

"Hi Gelie,  I am working on my networking and building new relationships. Can you give me a good rule of thumb on attending networking events? Which to and not to attend, any regulations on attending any of the events, etc.? Thank you so much."

... My response: 

Hi Q, 

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Arizona (BBBSAZ) provides children facing adversity with strong and enduring, professionally supported, one-to-one relationships that change their lives for the better. BBBSAZ currently has 300 children across the Valley who are waiting upwards of two years for a mentor.

Which is why we are in dire need of new volunteers. We offer a variety of volunteer opportunities that fit with even the busiest of schedules. This is due to the fact that mentors ("Bigs") get to choose when, where, and what activities they do with their mentees ("Littles").

I always try to keep things fun and challenging for myself … but lately it's been extra fun around the NetworkingPhoenix office … 

If you recall, I sent out an email offering the chance to meet up with some of our members, find out more about their business and share the info with the rest of the networkers in town … 

After getting countless requests from members to help promote their companies ... 

... I finally decided ... why not???

Here are a few services I'm adding to NetworkingPhoenix starting now:  

1) Want to host a mixer at your venue/location to get the word out? 

Let's make it happen! I'll show up and bring my professional crowd with me ...

Have you ever thought that content marketing isn't just what you do on your computer to sell and market your business? Sure, websites, blogs, videos, and social media definitely make up content marketing, but they're not the end-all, be-all. There actually might be a part of this whole outreach effort you're completely overlooking: networking.

Friday, July 3, 2015 marks a new era for small business in Arizona, as Equity Crowdfunding, a bill signed by Governor Doug Ducey in the Spring of this year, went live. Arizona's crowdfunding law allows small business owners to obtain capital through Arizona residents. Unless recognized as an "accredited investor" under the Securities Act, investors are able to invest up to $10,000 in exchange for shares of the company.

Imagine if you could support your favorite charity or cause with each swipe of mascara, spritz of fragrance, or lathering your shampoo?

The deductibility of the cost of buying and operating a home computer, including related equipment such as printers, drives, scanners, modems, etc., depends on how you use the computer.

As an Phoenix-valley resident, you know the summers can be brutal. Phoenix is even hotter than other Arizona cities due to the urban heat island effect. The long-time cited "3 months" has now turned into 6 months or even 8 months of relentless heat. This means many people who live here only do so for half the year or less. Current residents may choose to move elsewhere because they are tired of dealing with the heat.

Reserve your spot at our next Open House Hiring Event!! There will be some of Arizona's biggest employers there ready to have you apply on-site, hand your resume to, and interview you on the spot!

State Farm and Enterprise Holdings will be there, ready to accept your resumes.

There is no doubt that the real estate market is competitive. With marketing becoming almost entirely technology-driven, old ways of marketing will no longer work with the millennial generation.

It's that time of year again - Maricopa county residents have started receiving their property tax bills in the mail. If you haven't received yours yet, you will by September 30, or your mortgage company will receive it.

A deduction is an expenditure that will reduce your taxable income. There are two kinds of deductions: adjustments to income and itemized deductions. The adjustments to income are the better of the two, as they reduce adjusted gross income, or "AGI." Itemized deductions reduce your taxable income.

First, we will look at some adjustments to income.

Some of the ways your tax dollars are spent may surprise you.

A basic breakdown of your property taxes can be found on your tax statement, but many taxpayers want a better idea of how their hard earned dollars are spent.

How often do you think about your property taxes?

You’ve heard it before: blog! Blog often and blog on your website. But have you ever wondered why you’ve been urged to blog? And, perhaps more importantly, have you been wondering what to blog about in the first place? Read on, and I’ll give you the answer to both.

It's a proven fact that most people would rather stay home than walk into a room full of strangers under the guise of networking…

… OK, I don't actually have any stats on this, but I think most of you will agree with me :)

There are, of course, a few of us that feel like we've won the lottery every time we get to chat it up with a complete stranger…

But let's face it, most of us view networking as a forced activity … kind of like going to the gym…

...We know we need to do it… but who really wants to?

Customized coaching is in demand as the Phoenix-area chapter of the International Coach Federation celebrates its 10-year-anniversary and an evolving $2-billion industry that offers many choices for modern clients.

This blog is a little bit longer than usual, but it's a special occasion. On April 16, I said "Hats Way Off…" and celebrated 4 years of being in business. Hi, I'm Kathy Bass and I've been writing this blog since 2010. Yes, I am one of the rare 10% who blogs on a regular basis. I'm not telling you this to brag, I'm telling you in hopes that the reasons why I love blogging after pushing through a very rough, bumpy start may inspire you to blog more.

Content is a vital component of your marketing efforts; obviously, marketing won’t work without something to say. The question is, of course, what to say … and how, where, and why. Before you get started with all of that, you have a few other things to ask yourself about your business first. Unfortunately, too many businesses just launch a campaign without doing their homework — and then are curious as to why their efforts fail.

American Gnuity: An Innovative Reality TV Show for Entrepreneurs!

American Gnuity introduces innovative business ideas to our television viewing and online audience, allowing them the opportunity to contribute and invest in the projects of their choice.

Each season’s television series consists of three different phases:

“The king is dead. Long live the king.” That could be the mantra for video-production companies that believe the old king, content, has seen his time and needs to make way for the new king, video. But don’t get ready for the coronation just yet. While some people do prefer videos — and with Google’s ownership of YouTube, their SEO strength is warranted — written content has many benefits that will appeal to a wide audience for years to come.

In order to make a long lasting permanent change in an individual's life, there must be a change in the way the brain and thought processes respond to life. This is precisely what Georgeanne Bickle's book accomplishes.

Georganne Bickle, is a veteran of the AZANG, U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy, and the author of "A Good Brain Washing" (2012) and "Affirmations: For Every Area of Life" (2013).

This exciting 2nd Annual Women Investing in Women Summit (WIIW) started with a Welcome Dinner on Friday, January 10th, 2014, at the award-winning Sanctuary Camelback Mountain Resort & Spa in Scottsdale, Arizona.

As I arrived, I was warmly greeted by Jackie Wszalek, President of NAWBO, and happily stepped into a room full of energetic sponsors, supporters, press and speakers ready to connect with our Greater Phoenix community over a cocktail reception and a sumptuous three-course dinner with wine-pairing from one of Arizona's finest culinary destinations.

I just networked my way into Ryan Deiss' inbox. Boom! :) 

Who is Ryan and why am I telling you this? 

You may have seen me mention the Traffic & Conversion Summit that I'm attending next week in San Diego. It's Ryan's event. And it's a big one.

By reading this post, I hope you will gain the same "Aha!" moment that I experienced along with learning about the book that helped me feel more comfortable about being uncomfortable in a seemingly extroverted world. My "Aha!" moment happened when I read a comparison about shyness vs. introversion from author and introversion expert Susan Cain:

We ladies spend tons of energy toward changing, enhancing and attempting to perfect our skin, hair, bodies, houses, relationships and businesses … but, what about our brand voice?

As you know deep down inside, it’s not about what you say, it’s about how you sound when you say it. It comes down to mustering up just enough courage, confidence and conviction to ensure your message is sent, received and understood.

G.I. Joe Coffee Company "breaks ground" for American Veterans through the sale of veteran-branded coffees, products and fundraising opportunities with organizations having the same community goals.

Can you believe there are only a couple of weeks of 2013 left? Maybe I'm just getting older, but it seems as if time moves faster and faster each year. Now I'm sitting here wondering how to make next year even more successful than this one. I bet you're doing the same. One thing you really must consider either incorporating, continuing, or boosting is your content marketing. This is a vast area, so let's just focus on the biggies.

The individual will be troubleshooting, diagnosing and resolving complex security attacks upon network using various products, while utilizing proven best practices and other advanced software security techniques.

This position is for a Direct Hire (perm) position.

Duties for the Information Security Engineer include:

"Who are you?" seems like such a simple question, yet many choose to start forming opinions about someone by asking this question first: "So, what do you do?"  That seemingly innocent, yet commonly feared question causes people to avoid events, choke from anxiety and even stutter or stumble for words.  Anyone who has been laid off or fired and has attached their self-image to what their title, salary or line of work is knows the terror when this piece of their identity is stripped away.
