This Week: Catherine Donaldson

Q: When did you realize you wanted to be a writer?
A: Writing has always come naturally to me. For as long as I can remember I’ve been fascinated by the written word. As an only child, books were my best friends and I think that sparked my creativity. I started writing poetry and journaling at a very young age and at the risk of really dating myself, in or around the 4th grade; a girlfriend and I started the first elementary school newsletter, producing The Old-timers on a mimeograph machine.

Article of the Week

The FOCUS Marketing Method

Entrepreneurs and small business owners know they need to market their business to make more money and attract more customers, but they often don’t know how to go about it. That’s why my FOCUS Marketing Method is such a powerful tool. It gives you specific techniques to make your marketing efforts pay off.

“F” is for Filtered. Concentrate on targeting people in a specific niche market to attract your ideal clients - those people who you serve well and who you are most alike. Think about what types of people you best identify with and what life experiences, interests, hobbies, and roles you might share with them. Then consider whether they are people you’ll want to work with in the long term.
