On a personal note, I’m super duper excited to finalize details of my UK trip next month! My partner and I will be buzzing around England, Scotland and Ireland for two weeks in July. Wowee!! I’m keynoting this mega event in Manchester. Then on to Edinburgh and Dunfermline to visit my dad, two younger sisters and niece/nephews. Ireland plans firming up, stay tuned. 🙂 See my full calendar of events, travels and speaking — I look forward to meeting many more of my peeps around the world.
Cheers!

Thing is, Facebook has rapidly evolved into a big challenge for businesses of all sizes, with several major changes to the News Feed in April this year and also last fall. Organic reach is down to 1-6%. Don’t get left behind – stay on the leading edge of Facebook marketing best practices when you attend my newest online training course.
