What I’ve Done

Share

OLD COPY (but damn fun):

This blog stated off as strictly a business place. Did that for over three years and then it began morphing into a ‘whatever’ strikes me place.

I’m happy here. Or unhappy, as the mood may be…;-) (who me? moody? naw…)

You’ll find old copy below about my business. I still practice as a teacher and guide…and as an agent, finding jobs for people who I know are brilliant at inbound marketing.

Here’s the old copy:

My business is to highlight your business. I bring a fresh and playful eye to the Inbound Marketing industry. Additionally, I have access to strong networking connections, professional SEO and ROI for your Brand, and a personal touch to what many fear; Social Media Marketing.

I have unique abilities in engaging with clients, consumers, and individual creators. My years of intensive theatrical training backed by strong business education, ethics and sensibilities have given me the insight to go above and beyond within the Inbound/Social Media universe.

OR (written by friend and James Beard Award Winning Author, Crescent Dragonwagon):

Janet Alexander brings a spectrum of talents & experience to the activity of Social Media Networking. Why are her networking skills so compelling, interesting, and downright fun? Chalk it up to her thirty years in improvisation, business development, & events planning. Why does Janet listen to your needs? Could be Janet’s time as a waitress and yes, that most ‘I-hear-you’ of professions, bartender~!

Specialties:

Marketing, Event Organization, Social Media Best Practices, Small Business Marketing, Improvisational Theater, Production Management, Talent Buying, Specialized Social Media Training Seminars, Inbound Marketing Best Practices, Online PR, Customer Service Training, Inner Company Group Relations Seminars, Improvisational Workshops for the Employee.

This is a Note I wrote (about four years ago) on FB:

Well, as some know, I have been trying to write a bio for a couple of weeks now. What I’ve ended up with are pages of frustrating snippets highlighting this or that. One thing I have discovered is that a pound of frustration leads to many naps. Luckily (actually this is yet to be decided) I thought: well, I’ll make a list. I love lists. I’ll just write down every job I’ve ever had. Period.

[And...If you would rather not read the list, this is for you: blahblahblah-sheworked-blahblahblah]

I could put these in some sort of order, but honestly, what is the point? Some jobs happened when I was very young, some overlapped, some lasted for a short time. Lots are my own start-ups…and many continue to this day, again overlapping with my current focus. They are all part of who I have become. And DO NOT EVEN get me started on my volunteering gigs~!

Oh, and just for kicks, I threw one in that I have never done, but would if you asked very nicely~!
