It was Day 1 of the Brand Story Challenge. I was [reluctant], [physically sick], and [weary].

But above all, I was ready. Ready to share my story with [my amazing super supportive Brand Story Society family and a new community of ‘could be’ authors], and be totally honest about my journey with [helping everyday people to self-publish their stories, messages and collective works easily, economically and in excellence].

Our Culture Credo

I kicked fears booty and made a Phoenix Move

9/14/2016

I kicked fear’s booty and made a 'Phoenix Move' when I said, “Yes!” to a sister-friend who insisted that I edit her manuscript, saying that Spirit said I was to do it. Although I had edited several types of documents over the years and was very good at helping people express themselves, I was resistant to her request due to fear and uncertainty about my ability to edit the magnitude of a ‘book’. This was new level stuff. But I reluctantly accepted the challenge and was so glad I did because when I read it, I strongly urged her to cease selling copies of the book until I was through.

My Catalyst Moment in Business

9/13/2016

My catalyst moment in business happened because in January 2014 while writing my third book about ‘how to self-publish’, I decided to publish it through my own company and created a publisher imprint to my LLC. December 2013 had ended with me being physically sick with a respiratory ailment that I hadn’t had in four years. Not being 100% committed to myself or my business, straddling the fence of faith with too much going on at once that was not dedicated to building my vision and the need to de-clutter my space manifested into and old recurring illness that incapacitated me to the point I could not honor a short term work assignment I had committed to.

My Passion and Purpose

9/12/2016

I am passionate about helping people publish their story, message, instructions, collection, or whatever God has downloaded in their spirit to impact the lives of others. I believe that we all have a story and that our life experiences were not just for us, but were divinely allowed for us to go through and overcome to help someone else. I also believe that when we tell our truth out loud, we free ourselves and heal on deeper levels, while giving others permission to do the same.

In order to effectively communicate who you are and what you do as a business and attract your ideal customers and clients, you will need to define and clarify your brand.

I’m a grateful witness, participate and a beneficiary of its results!
