Greetings and a happy acceptance of chaos to all our readers!
We are absolutely shattered. Tonight, we've been catching up with Cynthia, our fab business mentor (Business Mental, she probably feels like!). Thankfully, she has a wicked sense of humour and has no qualms about kicking our butts on a weekly basis! We spent tonight getting all the past 10 days changes, developments etc into our action plans.
Someimes we feel like we'd like to sleep, enchanted, like all the knaves and household of Sleeping Beauty's Palace, for a lovely, long, silent 100 years
Old joke: One business woman to another, 'This super bug is causing havoc with my employees - half of them aren't turning up...'
Agrees the other, 'Yes, even the self-employed are getting hit!'
So, the advice is if you like skivving, don't be self-employed. Conversly,if you're an absolute adrenaline junkie, be an entrepreneur - forget bungie-jumping and croc-baiting!
I've been working on our site-map and design all this week. So that 8-wire, our Design company can dive straight into in on Monday and that Adrian, our web-builder knows where to attach all the programming to... Talk about learning to run before you can toddle - that's been us for 15 months!
If you ever get to do a two year documentary, be warned it is not a walk in the park - but it just might change your life completely! Go for it!
Now, a plea for helpful expertise! Does anyone work in Christian, Muslim and Jewish (or any other faith) magazines , current-affair papers, like The Tablet, for instance? We really want to promote Kisses That Count in these fields as well as the mainstream media and would be delighted to send pre-written articles / do interviews / send our Press Pack to interested publications.
Our slant is that we are covering the world in Kisses and donating 20% of revenue to our 4 sustainable-development charities: we argue that if all business did this, world poverty would disappear. If all people who profess a faith bought such products - hey presto! Now is the time for ethical and ecologically fuelled trading, if we are to save our planet - the time for pure greed is past. We all need to think and act with & about our finances responsibly, or we're all screwed!
We'd love all 'shades' of religious leaders / spokespeople to send celebrity Kisses That Count& give a message about what matters to them - like Rowan Williams, etc.
And we want to have politician, musicians, sportsmen and women, TV people, film stars - supporters from all fields to send Kisses That Count as special messages to their fans. Love really can make a difference!
Well, I'd better think about going to bed - I'm sure my first grey hair will be poking out soon, to remind me that non of us are invincible etc, etc.
Every blessing (whatever that is to you) to all.
Night!
Love Chloe.
