  • Friendly reminder when you’re giving feedback online: Leave BOTH positive and negative feedback. There’s value in telling someone the things you like just as much as the things you would change. This happens in natural conversation and is often lost in email correspondence.

  • I am on a plane that is theoretically heading to PHX! Wish me luck!

  • What’s your dog’s name? What nicknames do they have? I’ll start. Dog name: Phoebe What I actually call her: Pee-bee Stinky P-Brain Feebs #pets #dogsoftwitter

  • Flying in for #WCPHX – hopeful for some warmer weather than what we have in Ohio!

  • Can someone recommend a good copywriter? I’m looking for someone to re-write the copy on one of my websites.
