Insights Blog for Inspired Entrepreneurs

Wherever you go, there you are.

Funny how that works. All our foibles and greatness come to work and play with us.

The more insights we glean from noticing what happens when we show up, the more we can show up at our best.

This blog is full of:

practical business advice
interviews & stories
poems
opinions
references to other teachers
examples of inspired entrepreneurs

Take what works for you and leave the rest. Some of these have been published, some have not. If you would like to quote a segment or a whole article, I only ask that you give credit where credit is due.

And then tell your own story. So many times I hear people quoting someone else as if their own source of wisdom lies outside themselves. I call that OUT-sourcing. This blog and my work with Intuitive Plan is to here to help you IN-source.

Notice how the wisdom you find INside is remarkably perfect... for YOU in any given moment.

Congratulations for the journey,

Rosemary

What Is Marketing Anyway?

By Rosemary Senjem | February 4, 2008

Here is how you often hear marketing simplified by experts:

Get your name out there! (ok, become known, but for what?)
Go after your niche (well of course! nothing is for everyone - who are your raving fans?)
Have a consistent brand presence (yes, consistency is the foundation for establishing your integrity)
Go viral (this one really feels yucky to me, how bout you? when news travels by word-of-mouth it is the sign of success — why associate success with disease? I prefer to call it “making friends.”)

What about Market Research?

By Rosemary Senjem | January 31, 2008

The Competition

I’m not a big fan of inspecting your “competition” in order to figure out how to “position yourself in the market.” It just doesn’t make any sense to me.
