Brummet's Conscious Blog

What a pleasure it is to feature  Stephanie Benedetto today, who joins us to share her experiences in starting and maintaining a successful coaching business that she can manage from wherever she is located at the time.  Upon asking her to give us some adjectives to describe herself she starts with telling us that she is business coach and marketing specialist, but then goes on to share that she sees herself as a storyteller (check out her Wildspire Podcast ), a community catalyst and an adorable geek who loves dragons and deeply probing at seemingly impossible questions.  She goes on to say that her business services focus on helping coaches, conscious entrepreneurs and teams create the change they wish to see and share their heart’s message with playful marketing techniques-- no hustle, hype of endless social media required.

You know I'm frequently asked: "How do you consistently publish a blog on an almost daily basis like you do?" As such I decided to create a blog post sharing how I do what I do as a blogger.  I actually run 2 blogs... one is for musicians (Drum It With Brummet) where I work with my husband and business partner - Dave - to provide interesting music genre posts every 6-10 days or so. The blog I'll be referring to is the Brummet's Conscious Blog , which has been around for 2 decades now.  Periodically, when time allows, I'll gather notes and ideas for future posts, partially written articles etc. and keep them in within the Blog Folder on my computer. When I run out of content I head over to that file and start gleaning from it. I also have, in that same folder, files of blog images ready to use.  I rarely run out of content, but there have been a few times when I struggled to fill enough dates in the month.  Running the blog on a daily, or semi-daily, basis sta

This is the third installment in this particular series of articles sharing the importance of doing the right kind of research that will get your business/career efforts working for you in the most efficient, effective manner. We started Part 1 with sharing the very first, but most involved, step - which involved a lot of research. Then in Part 2 we had you create keywords about you from a professional view, and develop a contact list.  By the time you completed Part 2 you might be feeling a bit exhausted and wondering if this is worth it. It is worth it !

This data will be essential for effective online activities, the wording that you use in posts, articles, advertising and copy writing. This is why we really encourage you to take the time to really get creative here with your data co

This August, Columbia Land Trust conserved 40 acres of agricultural land in Trout Lake, Washington using an innovative new approach to farm conservation called Buy-Protect-Sell. A partnership between the Washington State Conservation Commission and the Washington State Housing Finance Commission , Buy-Protect-Sell makes it possible for land trusts to conserve farms facing imminent threat of conversion by accessing the necessary funding much more quickly than was possible using traditional funding sources.      Working with the Schmid Family, who have run an organic dairy farm here since the late 1800s, Columbia Land Trust used a loan and grant funding to purchase the farmland, place a permanent agricultural conservation easement on it, and promptly sell the land back to two of the Schmid sons. The land was able to be sold to the farmers at an affordable price since the new easement extinguished the development righ
