Recently I took a huge leap in life: I quit the "work force box" (the 9-5 monday through friday) I am now renting library books on small business taxes, accounting & social media networking. Whew! just thinking of it makes me feel excited, scared & overwhelmed with terms I have NO CLUE what they mean. It will be slow going but overtime I think I will learn the swing of things.
I decided to get out of the box & become a real partner to my spouse & his entrepreneur adventures, partly because I am tired of watching him have the freedom & flexibility to decide how he wants his day to look, partly because I'm tired of working with frustrating people & sometimes even bosses who take for granted the 110% that I put into their business only to be under-appreciated, but I think mostly because I believe there is an entrepreneur inside of us all but fear holds us back from taking the reigns of life & saying I choose to be in control. I have decided that fear is not going to hold me back any longer.... thinking back to my childhood, I remember all of the "big" dreams I had, the passion & excitement of doing something amazing & not wondering what others will think or the risks that are involved, that is the goal of who I want to become.
My role is now bookkeeper, accountant, office assistant, social media marketing & part owner of Evolutionary Marketing Solutions, We Will Do It Handyman & Restoration Specialists as well as the wife of the Author Ray Chubb, The 5 Step Guide to Empowering Consumers.
The first step was to start marketing through social media:
I have been reading today on social media marketing and have created two blogs, this one & one on tumblr.com : TheWifeOfAnEntrepreneur http://www.tumblr.com/blog/brookechubb
which has no blogs as of yet but be patient my friends there will be blogs soon!
I also found that there are easier ways to spend time marketing through social media... instead of going onto facebook, twitter, blogs, linkedin, ect. each individually there are sites such as ping.fm, hootsuite or sproutsocial that can be very helpful in managing the different social sites; a one stop shop for marketing. How nice! I think I will check out a free trial & see which I find most useful.
My first day into really deciding to give this social media a full force effort, I am feeling overwhelmed yet excited to see how I learn & grow through this journey.
I step forward to embrace the fear & overcome it!
