"Congrats Brenda..."
"Congratulations Brenda, pretty soon your acting fame will make your marketing irrelevant."
I hope not! An associate was congratulating me because I landed my first speaking part in a movie. Like lots of other entrepreneurs, I have hobbies, and acting is one of the most fun.
Would I mind if one or more of my acting projects was super popular and super profitable? Of course not. In THAT moment, I would have even MORE resources to help local, small business owners.
If I had to choose between being seen on the big screen and working behind a keyboard to help small biz owners find more customers, affording them a better life for their family and better service to their community..hands down I would choose the latter.
So Yay! I got a part in a movie...and if I'm closer to Hollywood riches, then Yay for the small business owner I would still be compelled to help!
Would YOU do something different than your current business?

6 个月I have been on my path for a long time. The worn pavement markings indicate heavily traveled for an extended time. At 60, I still determine how much more I can wear out that pavement with my profession. Now, I am partnering more than creating on my own. I have found that by building strategic partnerships with other footsteps on the pavement and partners on my side, I can leave an even more significant mark than I can do alone and extend the expectancy of the mark, growing larger and longer. To answer your question, "Would I do something different than your current business?" The answer is no; over the past 30-plus years, I have grown in the same space, absorbing all the sunshine and acquainting myself with my surroundings. Human and technological generations have passed, and new ones have arrived. In most cases, they have made my work more accessible and others more difficult, but I still serve the Houston business community in what looks like the same manner. What matters is the relationships and love that endure year after year for people you care about. Witnessing growth with the idea that I had something to do with it is also a joy to be embraced and celebrated.
