This morning started with a “Yippie!” I had figured out how to change my background! Accomplishment for me – just another quick fix for anyone on my web team right now.
So, if I have a team to do this, why on earth would I be attempting to build my own blog?
It’s actually a very selfless act. Over the last year I’ve worked with a lot of small businesses. And I’ve noticed that the same challenges come up time and time again – lack of time and lack of knowledge in some areas. Like finding out the bookkeeper hasn’t been on top of your expenses at the end of the year because you didn’t know they weren’t doing their job.
Gaining constant knowledge about the world online is enabling me to educate those who haven’t had the luxury or stamina of learning all of this web stuff while giving me better communication skills to work with my web-ers. Don’t worry – the only blog I’m designing is my own. All of my clients are in good hands with the amazing web team I have working behind the scenes.
So I here I sit, struggling away to figure out my latest challenge - why I can’t seem to get my visual editor to work. I assume I’ll hand this task off to someone else, but at least for the moment, I’m consumed with plugins that don’t quite work and a great feeling that I’m learning a lot from all of these mistakes.
…and I must be learning a lot, because every consult I do, I am able to troubleshoot something new for someone that I wasn’t able to answer last year at this time.
