Oh, it’s good to work hard, apply laser-like focus, and get into the groove to help business people accomplish a task that has the potential to support their business in such powerful ways. And, writing six sassy bios in two hours is a sure fire way to keep my storytelling skills in stellar shape.
Six business owners from a variety of businesses walked away from yesterday’s Publici-Tea™ Press Kit Writing Workshop with new biographies to post to their online press rooms to make it easy for others to appreciate the value they offer in the marketplace and why it matters.
We started the day with each guest briefly sharing her story. By listening intently and asking a number of key questions, the magic behind each story started to unfold. By the end of the day, each business owner proudly read her bio aloud to the others in attendance.
The look of amazement on the faces of every guest was apparent. Clearly, not every business is easy to explain or understand. Some are even a bit woo woo. But by the end of the day, the words on paper were doing a mighty fine job of putting clarity where there once had been chaos. It was a beautiful thing.
Connecting with people in person, inviting collaboration, and creating tools that have the power and potential to propel businesses forward is very rewarding for me and of great value to those who participate — based on the fabulous comments guests shared about their experience.

Now that I’ve conducted two press kit writing workshops and earned consistently rave reviews from all the participants, I’ll be adding this event officially to my Publici-Tea programming. Stay tuned in the coming weeks as I declare the new dates around which you can plan so you can participate and benefit as others have.
