These are the reasons why your title doesn't matter. First: nobody cares. And why? Because a lengthy, hefty title means nothing without action and true leadership behind it. Real leaders lead by example - not by running their mouths or attempting to throw their weight around. Here are 5 reasons why we feel titles don't matter. (Plus some instances where it does mean something). What about you - what do you think?
5 REASONS TITLES DON'T MATTER
1. Competence over Confidence
2. Hard Work from the Top Inspires
3. Too Much Hierarchy can Kill Innovation
4. The Right to Make Decisions Must be Earned
5. Real Leaders Solve the Hard Problems

TSPLIVE - the official conference for the organization Traffic Sales & Profit - is "a millionaire-making team" according to organizer and founder Lamar Tyler. In its fourth year since inception, TSP brought the star power with Janice Bryant Howroyd (first black female owner of a billion dollar business) serving as the main keynote of the event, Kim Coles (comedian and actress) and 90s group Arrested Development performing. What I enjoyed most about this event, in addition to that, was the camraderie with other fellow entrepreneurs - many of whom were in the same space as me: marketing and branding. In this video, I cover the following:

Marketing & Branding Tips for Entrepreneurs & Career Professionals
Have you ever used the SBDC (Small Business Development Center) with UGA before? I just started for the first time last week. They take you in as a client – you fill out some basic info (a simple one-pager) to start. My particular advisor / resource partner (not sure what to call him yet) wanted the short run-down of my life story – where I grew up, where I went to school, what my career background was, how I got into business. We also discussed my pain points, business goals, the things I need the most help with, etc. From there, we set a meeting to cover marketing for MY business (funny, since that’s what I do, but there’s always more to learn) with their marketing expert on staff which will be in June. In the meantime, they sent me home with the following materials based on our conversation:
– A Business Development Questionnaire
– A Business Plan Workbook
– An “Employee vs. Contractor” doc
– A Hiring Checklist
– How to Write a Job Description
…all materials for me to review prior to our next meeting in June. The SBDC is a tax-payer’s resource, so it’s at no cost to you (“because you’ve already paid for it” they say). They have 17 offices across the state of Georgia and their sole purpose is to help small businesses grow. They even have free resources for market research (which I’m particularly interested in for ADS). I’m excited to see how they can help guide me to the next level in my business. What about you? Would you be open to trying SBDC? If so, let me know. I’d be happy to connect you with my contact there.

Ever find yourself stuck in a place and you're not 100% certain how to get out of it? Or in the middle of a creative project and finding yourself completely devoid of inspiration and that spark that makes it all so fun? A getaway might just be in order for you. Here's how a random getaway helped me with my own rough spots with revamping ADS (my business) as well as in writing my book - #TheScotlandBook (latest side project). What about you? What do you do when you get stuck?
