Hey everyone! Fall, football, and school are back in full swing. (Sorta!) It’s odd to see empty NFL stadiums nationwide. The KC Chiefs hold 80,000 seats and they only allowed like 17,000 for their first home game. My kids have done virtual school since September. It’s much better than last spring but they go hybrid […]
Self-published via Amazon that is. Writing a book has been on my bucket list for as long as I can remember. But like so many other things, it fell into the “someday” category until the Fall of 2018, when I casually mentioned my goal to my long-time friend, Stacy Stephens.

Happy summer everyone! Today is the last day of June! 6 very long months down! 6 more to go! Cheers to the rest of the year. I’m hoping things get smoother! No worries, I won’t be talking about the global pandemic. Or protests either. A few years ago, my wife visited her parents and came […]

Happy late February everyone! As you may or may not know, the Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl for the first time in 50 years! Disclaimer: I’m an avid Denver Broncos fan BUT a big fan of Head Coach Andy Reid and their quarterback Patrick Mahomes. According to CBS Sports, the Chiefs were the […]
Happy 2020 everyone! I can’t believe half of January is already gone! Where does time fly? Last July I was in Hawaii for a family reunion and met up with a Sales VP who was a past client of mine. She told me about BombBomb, a video service. I looked it up and put it […]
(And we wonder why it’s tough to get prospect’s attention!) Happy December folks! I came across an article recently by Netcraft. Netcraft is an internet services company based in the United Kingdom which provides internet security services. Netcraft did some surveys in January 2018 and realized there are 1,805,260,010 websites worldwide. I’m going to go […]
