2 Years ago, my daughter Sadie Loren Reyes was born!  It changed Sarah & my life forever.  Being a part has been the greatest joy of my life.  Sadie has motivated me in so many ways, to be a better Husband, Son, Brother, Friend, Business Dude, and so much more!

I look back on that day and realized how much unconditional love God has for all of us.  It’s the same love that I had for my daughter back then & the same kinda love I have for her today.

2 years ago I wrote a post called “The Most Important Day of My Life” about the experience we had on April 23rd, 2008.  Here’s a video we did on the day after she was born to show off our Princess!

Love you Sadie.  Sadie, you inspire me to change the world!

FAMILY IS EVERYTHING.  Don’t ever forget that!

In today’s interview I had the chance to chat with my good friend, Sierra Friend (the Blog Site Coach), about blogging for your personal brand and business. Sierra has helped numerous people with setting up their blog and coach them on how to put together a blogging strategy to grow their business.

You need a blog for your business and brand.  It’s the cornerstone (IMHO) in any good social media strategy.  It’s even been reported that Companies that Blog Have More Consistent Sales.

In this interview you’ll learn:

- How she transitioned out of the Corporate world to follow her dreams and passion
- How to find your blogging “voice”
- Figuring out how to best communicate to your audience
- The importance of injecting your passion into your blog content
- Why she ONLY recommends Wordpress

Has blogging helped you with YOUR business?  What tips did you like best from Sierra?

In today’s video, I interview Claim.io’s Co-Founder Arron Kallenberg about his company’s awesome new service that helps businesses protect their brand from brandjacking.

Two of the biggest questions I get when I’m talking about social media at workshops or events is “Should I get my username on all the social media sites?,” and “Should my username be consistent throughout the social web?”

Arron and I answer those questions and more in this video interview.

In this interview we talk about:

- How Arron became an entrepreneur at a young age & what drove him to stick with it
- Why NOW is the time to protect your brand from others
- The benefits of SEO with Claim.io
- Have a consistent message of your brand through the social networks

Now there’s other companies that are similar to Claim.io, but I wanted to point out what makes them the best after my research:

- Have invested a lot of time and money into their backend over the last 2 years  on building an efficient, secure & scalable process
- They’re currently 45% more affordable than their closest competitor
- Their other company DaddyID has been tracking data on social media sites for the last 2 years and has the pulse on almost 400 sites

If you plan on doing any business long term on the internet – you need to protect your brand from being squatted on by someone else.  Therefore I highly recommend Claim.io’s service.  Check them out here:  Claim.io

I hope this interview helps ya.

Too many people talking wayyyyy toooo much & not listen for the opportunities that can take their business or brand to the next level.
