Are You Keeping Up with the Change?
{photo is a stock image}
In a world where technology changes by the day, can you keep up? Is your company performing to the best of its ability, and getting to actually know the consumer? I mean really know the consumer? Do you know where they’re from? They’re age or how they use your website? If the answer is no have no fear there are tools to help you get the information you need to have your business perform at its highest ability. Companies and brands are using things such as embedded analytics to get the information that will be most useful to them. I’m sure you’ve heard of Google Analytics, where you can find out who is on your site, which page they’re on where they are from and so much more. Knowing key components of analytics is what is going to help you take your business, brand or company to the next level. Use Google analytics along side embedded analytics to get the most performance driven information. Some believe that since they’re business has been doing find for the past X amount of years that they don’t have to evolve with the change, and that’s just not the case. Without change, restructuring and knowing who is actually on your website you’re setting your business up for complete failure. Just because something worked in 2000 does not mean it’s going to work in 2018. Analytics, SEO and more have evolved greatly and it’s time for you to make that change as well. Will you make the change? Will you take the next step and bring your business to the top of its game? Make it appear on the first page of a google search. Will you work on paid ads and campaigns across the internet to draw attention to your company? If you can’t do the things needed to improve your companies value, then are you willing to hire someone to take charge and learn the trends? It’s absolutely critical that you know who is on your website and what they’re doing. If people are staying for mere seconds you need to figure out what you’re doing wrong. If you have a shopping cart and people are bailing on the shopping cart see why they’re bailing and figure out how you can fix it. Be proactive and take your business to the next level. I once worked for a company who wouldn’t listen to what its employees were saying and the site completely failed because they didn’t learn the customer, they were charging extra for no reason and it just steered consumers into the arms of our competition including ME because I couldn’t even figure out how to navigate the site. So are you staying still or moving with the time?
Goal Digger
Before Friday’s workout class started the trainer asked us to write down our goal/why we are coming to classes. Sure summer is coming and I want to look good in a bathing suit, lose weight, be healthier etc etc. Aside from all of that, why am I actually working out? Why am I putting my all into these classes? What I wrote on the paper was “to tone up and gain confidence”. The root of it all is I lack body confidence, and I want to look good naked. All the tools are in front of me to reach my goals. I am trying to be realistic, and making sure everything is actually attainable. So what’s your health and fitness goal? Why are you on this journey?
Lugz and I Were Mint To Be
{this is a sponsored post – I received these shoes in exchange for an honest review}
If you know me, you know that I love when my shoes match my outfit. If I don\’t have an outfit that goes with my shoes, I will go buy an outfit to go with my shoes. I recently discovered Lugz, not only do they offer boots they also offer kicks in some pretty fab colors. Currently they have white, black/white, sky, pink and minty which I am wearing in the picture above. The color is amazing, and they\’re so comfortable. I think out of all the shoes that I own these get the most attention when I wear them out. I love that these shoes have a cushioned insole and durable rubber outsole – they even held up really nicely on an impromptu hike.

Bonefish Grill
If you remember from this post A took me to River Crab for my birthday, where we had an absolutely amazing seafood meal. We started with their firecracker shrimp (which was seriously amazing), while at the restaurant he informed me that Bonefish Grill has Bang Bang shrimp that is even better than River Crab’s version, so Thursday he surprised me with date night at Bonefish Grill in Troy. We started the evening with an order of Bang Bang shrimp, which is crispy itty-bitty shrimp that has been tossed in their signature creamy spicy sauce and is out of this world delicious. The shrimp was super filling, and since I don’t eat a ton we decided to split a meal of scallops which were fantastic as well. All around great first time experience at Bonefish.
