Imitation is not the highest or sincerest form of flattery. It's theft. While nothing in business or social media is ever new, what you offer has your own stamp and identity.

In this episode I talk about things you can do to protect your brand.
Most business owners get so caught up in the hiring process and the search for great talent, they often forget about after the hire. Getting them is a lot easier than keeping them.

There's a difference between wealthy and rich. Wealthy is quiet, rich is loud & bragging. In this social media world, people can be anything they want to be, and often times the images of wealth get confused with real wealth. Unless your brand is about wealth, there should be no reason to use images or posts to falsely portray an image of a life you don't live. Inevitably, someone will buy your product or service in th...
I learned long ago that if I don't establish my value, someone else would. And the value they establish won't line up to the truth. When establishing value, don't think in terms of price or affordability. Think about the results you deliver. They have to match the promise in order for the value to be accepted. You decide what your value should be, not the consumer. But whatever you choose, you have to be prepared to stand ...

Yes, Mary J. Blige in collaboration with Giuseppe Zanotti launched a boot for $1,300. Some people are complaining about the price and are calling for her to release a lower priced one. But is that fair? I learned a long time ago that the price is the price but terms are negotiable. While I am sympathetic to the world and economy we live in. everything ain't for everybody. If there is value in something, nobody should be as...
With the democratization of platforms the good and bad thing is anyone can launch one. It doesn't mean everyone's message is positive. We as women have a responsibility to uplift, inspire and educate. We have a responsibility to honor and tell our stories. So many people fumble that opportunity by degrading adn spreading negative energy.. You can speak or show the facts without tearing down a segment of people or causing h...
When I started on this IP journey, my thinking and scope was so limited. I had a lot of assumptions that had me afraid to work my numbers or go for opportunities.
I thought about what it would be like to actually really own Mogul Chix® and the power that it gave me to create new long term opportunities for my company. People used to ask me if I was licensing out anything. I always said no. I had the licensing agreem...
