This week was one of the busiest ever and I am reminded of when I started this company over a year and a half ago.  I used to go to movies during the DAY sometimes back then.  I had my nails done once every two weeks!  I used to neatly stack my bookcase by size and shape instead of piling them on every flat surface in the house!
Speaking of books - I just started Creative Inc. this week.  It&#8217;s going to be on my recommended list for people who ...]]></description>

		<title>Tide Is Getting Into The Dry Cleaning Business &#8211; Is Social Media To Blame?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		

When Pop Tarts opened a New York store I have to admit I made a mental note that I would definitely be going there the next time I got to New York.  In fact, there&#8217;s a good chance I will go there straight from the airport since I apparently have the sweet tooth of an 8 year old that makes me do ridiculous things like buy $10 giant gummy bears (they are 1200 calories each btw) and I can&#8217;t event get into what happens to me when the Peeps hit ...]]></description>

		<title>Social Media And The Art Of Talking Around The Subject.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
Everyone has seen the good, the bad, and the really, really bad on basically every online platform.  The Twitter feed that reads:
&#8220;We&#8217;re having a sale 50% off&#8221;
&#8220;Stop in today &#8211; big sale&#8221;
&#8220;35% off everything&#8221;
It&#8217;s like someone taking out a huge cartoon Acme sledgehammer and hitting you over the head while calling you dumb.  It&#8217;s annoying and the brand typically has under 100 followers to show for their efforts.  I kind of feel bad, they&#8217;re trying&#8230;..
So since we don&#8217;t want to hit our clients and beloved customers over ...]]></description>

If you&#8217;re new here, the Friday Funrise is that time just before the weekend hits (as in sunrise, but for the weekend).  It&#8217;s a list of cool things that I found over the week that hopefully helps you get excited for your weekend and even for the upcoming Monday.  This week was especially good because I met some new blog friends, started 2 new projects, and ummm&#8230; I&#8217;m going to Cape Cod tomorrow!

		<title>Interview With &#8220;Jane Has A Job&#8221;</title>

I met Emma from &#8220;Jane Has A Job&#8221; a few weeks ago when she asked to do an interview on how I started my business and I was so happy to discover that her blog has tons of supersmart career advice.  When we got to talking, we both realized that we started our blogs in many ways to search for other career oriented women to be friends with.  Mission accomplished!  Read the interview here.

		<title>Social Media Spotlight: CB2 and The Selby</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		

This contest is so smart I just had to write about it.  It&#8217;s  sponsored by CB2 and The Selby which is an incredible photo blog about people in their creative spaces.  Todd Selby shoots people in their apartments or lofts and is kind of a tastemaker of who&#8217;s cool right now.  He also shoots spaces as they are and not all styled and Martha Stewart-ed up so it&#8217;s appealing to people who want to design their own cool space and are the kind of people who troll through home blogs ...]]></description>

This weekend is the weekend when I officially refurbish the old dresser in the bedroom.  I got the idea from this amazing magazine called Living Etc. (UK) that I discovered a few weeks ago.  They have an absolute TON of ideas for things you can do to your apartment / home that you can actually do yourself.   Another one that I love for ideas is Readymade, which I am going to do a whole post on next week.

		<title>You Might Need A Cleaning Lady, Not An Intern.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		

I walked in the door a few weeks ago after a day full of meetings and phone calls and flopped on the couch.  I was frustrated because I was actively looking to hire someone to help me with &#8220;work stuff&#8221; and was having a hard time defining what &#8220;work stuff&#8221; was and also a person who could do said &#8220;stuff&#8221;.  All I knew was that I could get all my work done but hadn&#8217;t been able to find time to get a haircut since March.
As I looked around from my ...]]></description>

This week will be the one where I sat right by Steve Martin in a restaurant.  I just love him, and how funny was the 3 Amigos?  I still watch that movie at least once a year.
Also this week, I read an article  that I&#8217;ve been thinking about ever since.  It&#8217;s the 4 Burners Theory by Chris Guillebeau and it&#8217;s all about work / life balance which everyone should read.  It adds some dimension to the whole thing by adding  &#8220;family&#8221; and &#8220;social life&#8221; to &#8220;work&#8221; and &#8220;personal&#8221; which means ...]]></description>

		<title>A Creative Person You Should Know About: Thomas Hicks</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
I have been obsessed with block printing the last few weeks since I&#8217;m dying to make some kind of business cards myself.  I&#8217;ve been eyeing up this kit to start because it includes everything you need to start printing for under $50.
If you&#8217;re not familiar with block printing it&#8217;s basically where you  carve a stamp into a piece of linoleum and paint ink on it and stamp it  on things.  People use them to make pillows, T-shirts, tote bags (think  for the farmer&#8217;s market), cards (mine will ...]]></description>
