potluckInspired by Holly at June Cleaver Nirvana, I’ve stolen some badges (and made some of my own!) to participate in Potluck :) What’s potluck you say?

Potluck: random, unorganized thoughts smashed together into one post and branded as a potluck

 

Learn more about potluck and how to participate on Holly’s Potluck: How To. Now on with the show!

Googling BadgeJust like the majority of regular bloggers, as a business I am very interested in how people are finding my site. The best part is some of the more random search terms used. My favorite of the week: admin assistant “a”

Now I wonder why they were searching with the letter A in quotes. I like to think they were looking for an A+ assistant… but who the heck really knows what they were looking for. You have any ideas?

 

Most Epic Tweet

This is my Most Epic Tweet badge that I created. Feel free to steal and use for your potluck.

My most epic tweet last week was in response to @TPEntrepreneur’s tweet: “Putting your website address (URL) on every email you send, on your letterhead & business cards is obvious. But where else could you put it?”

My response: “Written on your forehead, wall of a bathroom stall, sand on the beach, your car, social media profiles — are a few :)

Oh, and don’t forget to follow me on twitter at @AVirtualEdge.

Free Resources and Tools BadgeAnd now for free resources and tools (I made this badge, too – feel free to steal it).

One of Shauna’s client’s – side note: grammatically, that was a double possessive. I can remember my mother saying something about these when I was little, but darned if I can remember if it’s actual proper English – introduced me to this nifty free online tool, a color palette generator. You plug-in the URL of an image and it will pull together a color scheme/palette from it. Loving this tool and used it for the Most Epic Tweet Badge. Find it online at http://www.degraeve.com/color-palette/.

That is all for this week! I hope you enjoyed my first potluck, and if you have any suggestions on other ways I can put a biz spin on it please leave your thoughts in a comment below! And don’t forget to check out the other potluck in the Blog Hop below!
