April 17, 2019 at 8:30 AM The Church exists not only for those in it, and but also for those who are yet to be a part. Our primary mission is reaching people beyond our walls. This calls for the involvement of everyone in every community of believers everywhere. We all have a part to play. It takes many different approaches to share our faith with others. Building relationships and having open conversations about faith is one way. Another could be inviting someone to church. Some find this one the easiest.

April 17, 2019 at 5:00 AM The marketing for topical pain relief brand Biofreeze was once pretty basic, to put it mildly.
“Literally the brand assets we were using were Arial font with a clip art icon,” says Michael McGoohan, chief marketing officer at parent company Performance Health. But it really didn’t matter. That’s because the product–which is applied directly to skin to ease muscle pain–was exclusively distributed by physical therapists, massage therapists, chiropractors, athletic trainers and other health clin...

April 17, 2019 at 8:00 AM There’s no doubt about it: the longer you wait to buy life insurance, the more expensive it gets.

12h ago ( April 18, 2019 at 9:00 AM ) A year ago, I took the plunge and quit my job to be a full-time freelancer. It was a bold, scary move considering I was and still am in debt.
Of the many reasons I chose self-employment, flexibility and increasing my income were paramount in my decision. I believed I could make more money on my own since I worked low-paying nonprofit jobs for the bulk of my career, making roughly $30,000 per year.

An experienced fisherman will tell you that some fish will bite a baited hook when they are hungry, some bite it because they are curious, and some bite it because they are angry.
The fish’s motivation can literally change with the wind, water temperature, cloud cover, air temperature, and a myriad of other reasons that most of us will never care to understand. But, the fisherman just keeps trying different areas of the lake, and different baits and lures until they find the right combinatio... Tags: Digital Marketing150 people like this. Like

12h ago ( April 18, 2019 at 9:00 AM ) It took me years to notice. But eventually, it was impossible to ignore. Some of our longest-lasting client relationships weathered the turbulence of turnover -- sometimes multiple times -- on our team. Talented creatives or account people would move on to new opportunities, and we would sheepishly introduce a new team.
We were on pins and needles about these transitions. Would we lose the client? Did everything hinge on the recently departed team? How could we position these changes as posit... 149 people like this. Like
