Hi Nick!

Thanks for the warm welcome, and BIG Congratulations on the new addition to your family! As a mother of two, I can completely relate to the joy (and lack of sleep) that comes with welcoming a little one into the world. It’s a whirlwind, but it’s the most rewarding experience. Your journey at Constant Contact is impressive, and as someone who loves both creativity and adventure, I can definitely relate to your passions for digital art and rock climbing. Looking forward to connecting more!

Best,
Shafika Khan

Thank you for the kind words, Shafika! And it's always nice to find someone who can relate to the... wonderful exhaustion of parenthood. It's still a ways away, but we're considering the possibility of a second wee one, and I gotta admit... sounds daunting. 😄

Hi Jaymi. Welcome to the wild, wonderful world of email marketing! I'm not very familiar with dating apps (been married for 37 years!!) so I'm interested to know: are local events common with apps like this? Sounds like a good idea to me 😊

Hello everyone,  I am Cherellew, the owner of ExoticRelles out of Memphis,TN.  We are a handcrafted mom and pop shop from home. We hand craft things out of wax, we make braclets,  and what knot things. On my team I have my niece (15yr) who makes custom braclets,  my son (8yr) who does the painting on the wood craft 😆.  Then I'm the one who handcraft the wax figures and personalized them. What I love the most is the smiles on people faces when they see my artwork.  They way my artwork looks at parties, venues, wedding , baby showers, etc. Also, I never make something twice, everything is personalized for that customer to bring out their day. I am new here as well. Just looking for new clients, big projects, and more insight on how to market.

Hello

My name is Kristin G.   I am the chair for SME  a nonprofit Professional Organization committed to promoting and supporting Engineering and Manufacturing  for students ( middle thru college) educators and professionals.  Our organization helps manufacturers grow and prosper  by developing a skilled workforce.  Our belief is Manufacturing is key to economic growth and prosperity.  My role for this organization is chair of  industry representatives, teachers, and students.   My background is in Education and work with the teachers to connect them to business so they can help students develop the skills need in the manufacturing industry.   We provide industry tours, networking events and professional development for our members and interested friends of manufacturing.  During COVID our chapter membership dropped and now we are working to regain membership and provide connection.    That is what brought our organization to Constant Contact.  We need a consistent communication plan that will serve new and current members. 

I am retired from the workforce when not doing this project.....My husband and I are faux farmers and I am outside with our three alpacas, hazelnut trees and gardening. When inside I  am needle felting and trying new recipes.

Hi @KristinG439 

 

It's really cool to hear how you and your team are working hard to connect education and manufacturing. Your initiatives, like tours, events, and training, sound awesome!

 

And on a personal note, your "faux farming" lifestyle with alpacas, hazelnut trees, and needle-felting sounds like a dream of mine!

 

If you’re looking for somewhere to get started I’d recommend our Ready, Set, Send challenge which has great worksheets to inspire you along your Constant Contact journey.

Hi, my name is Patti.  I'm a health and wellness professional focusing on food and nutrition as medicine and very passionate about helping people achieve optimal health and well-being in ways that are best for them.  I've been operating my own business now for the past 20+ years and feel blessed that God has sustained me this long.  The work I do is my purpose and my ministry.  I'm also passionate about learning everthing I can about  how nutrition affects and heals our bodies - physically, emotionally, and spiritually.  

 

When I have the opportunity, I thoroughly enjoy travelling, sports, and expressing my creativity through art, interior design, and fashion.  I love the outdoors, and enjoy long walks on the beach or whereever my legs and feet carry me.

 

I'm looking to grow my business on line and become a bit more savvy and comfortable with using social media for business purposes primarily.

Welcome @KendraH067 

Welcome to the community! It's great to hear about your daughter and her friend's incredible talent and dedication to basketball. It sounds like they have a bright future ahead of them! 🏀

 

I completely understand your desire to support your daughter's dreams. It's wonderful to see the community rallying behind her, and I'm sure many people would be eager to support her journey.

 

To get the word out and find sponsors, here are a few suggestions:

  1. Use social media: share videos and photos of her playing basketball on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Use hashtags relevant to basketball and sponsorship opportunities to reach a wider audience.
  2. Reach out to local businesses: approach local businesses, especially those with ties to sports or community involvement, and explain your daughter's situation. They may be willing to sponsor talented young athletes in their community.
  3. Start a crowdfunding campaign: consider creating a crowdfunding campaign on platforms like GoFundMe or Kickstarter. Share your story and explain how the funds will help support your daughter's basketball journey.

Your daughter's determination and talent deserve to be recognized and supported, and I'm confident that with the help of the community, you'll be able to find the support she needs.

HI. My nickname is Melon... from Mary Ellen. Last name is Dash (really). For over 40 years I've had a swimming school only for adults who are afraid in water. Adults overcome their fear and become able to be peaceful in deep water in a few weeks. We're in Florida now and we have a few other locations nationally. Miracle Swimming.

 

I've been a Constant Contact client for years. Decades?  It allows me to be in touch in a personal way to all my mailing lists. I can count on it. I appreciate the customer service, too.

 

What do I like most about my business? It works where all else fails. It feels good to be a leader, to have reliable answers, to see our students thrilled every time we teach a course.

 

When I'm not at work--which is rare--I'm in my yard, at the beach, outside somewhere or SCUBA diving.

 

Nick, I like the way you wrote your introduction.
