Are you doing everything right on social but still experiencing slow growth? You’re not alone. Organic growth, which means attracting fans and followers through non-paid avenues, can be a slow process. It takes time and consistent effort to build a tribe on social...

In the spring of 2012, I met a woman on Twitter named Becky Robinson. It was a tale of entrepreneur meets soon-to-be out-of-work English-major-turned-pharmacy-tech, and before I knew what was happening, I was in Becky’s email account, reaching out to Barnes...

Two years ago, I left my job to study in Israel where I still live today. Since moving, I have worked in a high-caliber sales position, served as a counselor for a summer program, and performed other odd jobs. I have enjoyed being active, doing different things,...

Last month, several Weaving Influence “gatherings” took place in West Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, and Florida while Becky and her family were on their southern road trip. Since I live “just across the mountain” in Tennessee, I joined the...

Normally I open these posts with a little bit of chit-chat about my week, or something the team is doing, but this week the news is too big to hold! Earlier this week the Forty Over 40 list came out, and not only did our very own Becky Robinson make the list this...

I first met Becky in an Indianapolis, Indiana café sometime in early 2012 at the suggestion of my aunt, author and consultant Jesse Lyn Stoner, a friend of Becky’s. I was in my last year of college and, like many millennial grads who studied liberal arts, totally...
