Nieto Creative Weekly Roundup: Sept. 29 – Oct. 5, 2018

small business education

It’s FRIDAY! Which means it’s time for our weekly roundup of articles, tech tools, books, etc. that we believe can help or encourage our fellow small business owners. We’ve got some good ones this week!

Listens:

  1. Success Habits: The Proven Way to Achieve Your Dreams – Another great podcast from Lewis Howes. As entrepreneurs, we understand the importance of creating habits that support our goals. The importance he places on a community is spot on. This is why we are active in several networking groups. We believe in it so much we partnered with a couple of other business to develop our own. If you live in the Richmond, Texas area feel free to stop by and visit Elite Business Connectors every Monday morning @ 7:30 am.
  2. Unscripted – Besides the strong social commentary and rough language this is a great listen for the entrepreneur. As you can tell from the title this book is about going against the social norm of going to college, getting a job, working there for 40 years and retiring an old person. I love hearing different perspectives and this one is definitely different. It’s a long one, but worth a listen.

Reads:

  1. 7 Comma Rules Every Writer Should Know – This is certainly something I struggle with.
  2. The Introvert’s Guide to Successful Networking – One of the reasons we started Elite Business Connectors is to start a networking group that is relaxed, educational and action-oriented. It is a perfect group for both introverts and extroverts.
  3. How to Avoid Stale Content with These 21 Ideas for Your Upcoming Social Media Posts – Keep your social media presence alive with some of these ideas.

Tools:

  1. Grammarly – This has changed the quality of my writing. It is more than just a spell checker, it does grammar checking too. I am using the premium version right now as I write my blog post. They also have a free version. Trust me, once you try it you won’t ever go back to writing without it.
  2. Lucidchart – This is the tool Nieto Creative uses for our mind maps, process maps and any other digital process map you can think of.
