New Surprises on the Horizon

I hope you had a wonderful weekend!  I’m sorry my newsletter is a little late!  My hubby and I had a little bump-up in our cars (both of them)!  We are both fine, but I was pretty sore and really couldn’t sit at my desk too long at a time!

 

Nancy Alexander; Linda Joseph of www.Bestofnancy.com 

I am so excited today because my partner Linda Joseph who lives in Connecticut will be flying in on Wednesday.  The two of us together for five days, and we will both loose our voices because we can’t stop talking!

 

Linda and I first met in a coaching class by an amazing “mentor”, Jim Cockrum.  We have known each other for about six or seven years, worked off and on together for about five years, but have been “best friends” and partners for three years.  We laugh with each other; we laugh at each other; and when there is a need, we often pray for each other.

You won’t believe this, but Linda and I have never met face to face!  We talk practically every day about business and family.  We Skype each other, and email frequently as we share our growing coaching business:  http://www.BestofNancy.com.

Linda is a genius with anything technical.  Her Internet skills are beyond comparison.  She is a planner!  and functions best with schedules, charts, and to-do dates.  So… I know I drive her a little crazy when I say:  “I’ve been thinking” as I come up with another of my “inspired” ideas I want to implement today or tomorrow.  Linda can always figure out how to do exactly what I envision, or add to my ideas making them even better!  How great is that?!!

 

Left Brain, Right Brain — Guess Who is Who?

 

 

Shhhhh….. Don’t tell Linda this, but my son, Andy and his wife, Stephanie along with Steve and I have been working non-stop trying to get the place in shape for our special visit!

Linda and I are honored to have been asked to speak before the Chamber of Commerce Business Women’s brunch this Friday.  They are very interested in “my story” as I fought a battle with Fibromyalgia and Celiac disease, all the while turning a hometown storefront business into a  very successful Internet Marketing business.

I’ll tell you another secret…just couldn’t have done it without Linda!

 

Another Exciting Venture for Ladybug Wreaths!

Linda and I will also be taking the first steps into another exciting venture for us both while she is visiting.

We will be going through an “intensive” training program and planning phase for “Ladybug Wreaths”, and “Best of Nancy” with our new business coach, Barb Wade.

I cannot share too much of that yet, but I know you’ll be as excited as we are as these plans unfold and are announced!

 

Another “Secret Vendor List” Update!!

Yes… I have done it again! Steve and I made a trip to my “Favorite Vendor”!  We filmed several hours of video as we toured their 18,000 sq. ft. facility with one of the owners.  After talking to them recently, they said it was the perfect time to pay a visit.

 

CHRISTMAS IS IN!!  Christmas is everywhere.
And… DECO MESH AND DECO MESH ACCESSORIES ARE EVERYWHERE!

 

I have never seen so much deco mesh in one place before.  There are new patterns, materials, and accents for this year that are exclusive ONLY to this vendor (my favorite vendor).

We spent the day and were taken to lunch by one of the owners.  Our discussions were very informative as we got to talk to him about styles, and new colors, along with his frequent trips to China.

They design new patterns, materials, and styles, as well as adding new colors.  So at least for the first year, and maybe even the second, their new designs can only be purchased through their company.

After these new designs have been on the market for a couple of years, they are beginning to be copied by other vendors.  But, don’t worry, our vendor is always ahead of the game designing more and more each year, as they stay way ahead of the game!
