There is a great post over at AllFacebook making the case that the new Facebook Timeline features is the best thing for brands since Pinterest. Um… ok, is that tongue in cheek?
Read it here.

We can come up with all kinds of reasons why things don’t work.
We can take in a ton of information, learn as much as we can and grab hold of all the tools we can find.
And none of it will matter.
Because we aren’t committed.
We have a toe in the water.
A foothold here and another one here.
I am just as guilty of it as you are.
It’s all about fear.
Marketing tries to help people deal with this fear. Do this and you will be ok. Buy this and everything will be alright. Go here and forget about everything. And that’s not a bad thing if it helps people get over the hump in the short term.
But you and I have a business to run.
And we know how marketing works.
300 your business.
Get committed to doing one simple thing into that will make a difference for your small business. Whether its making 10 cold calls a day or asking for daily referrals or partnering with a talented colleague, make it happen.
Be a pro.
Be a Spartan.
And watch what happens.

Okay so that’s not the tagline that they use but knowing who reads this blog it might as well be.
Because you guys are busy and you love your business like a child and you have very little time.
And forget the bar scene.
I study my analytics.
You guys are way past the bar scene.
So how are you going to meet someone?
You probably met your last great date or hubby or wife at work right?
Well, this is pretty much the same thing. The only difference is that Palm and Associates brings your workplace into someone else’s workplace.
I know the owner, Kimberly and she is very good at what she does. She really cares about her clients. I have literally sat in her office and heard her coaching a client who was nervous on a first date. And it was a guy! It was very sweet. This is a small niche agency that is very selective about who they choose to bring in.
There are a lot of testimonials on their website that can speak to the experience of working with Palm and Associates better that I can. They have an active Facebook and Twitter presence as well and a blog that they regularly update.
In short, they are a modern boutique matchmaking agency that serves high-end clients in Orange County.
They are not a dating mill. This is not a place where you will find the creeps and freaks. Usually creeps and freaks don’t have successful small businesses, although we all know exceptions.
I admire Kimberly, who came into this field from a completely different profession and saw a need and decided to fill it. It is not an easy business, especially if you want to do it right and not prey on people’s insecurities. She works very hard at what she does and deserves your patronage should you decide this is something you would like to try.
Can’t recommend her enough from what I’ve seen and been told. If you find yourself alone every night after a tough day doing battle in the business world, give Palm and Associates a call at (949) 706-5596. They may find someone that will ease and enrich your busy life.
