If you told me that "chocolate" brown would look good on a web page, i'd highly doubt that...

But looking at my newly redesigned coaching club page, I am enjoying the combination of chocolate, gold, and red....

Milana's Inner Circle - Six Figure Coaching Entrepreneur's Club

The best color scheme picker I've ever seen is here.

Strangely enough, gold is not on the color scheme with brown....maybe I am color blind.

By the way, a great way to do viral marketing - this tool is free, but they have plenty of paid tools, upgrades and a mailing list feature.

How many people would tune in to watch a Weight Watchers reality show?

Yes, there is "The Biggest Loser" but what if a true coach, movitational speaker creates it?

Or, how about a show called "You're Hired!", where real life job interviews would be broadcast, with a coach doing the before and after. I'd absolutely tune in to see who gets hired!

Donald takes too long to hire/fire someone, I want to see it all happen the same day!

Any takers for this "killer" idea?

I moved!

Ok, it's only across the street, but believe me, it might've been across country - there is very little difference. If you have to move stuff from a four-bedroom house into any other location, you don't care where it's going.

Lesson learned - don't make any verbal agreements between buyers and sellers. Everything should be documented, signed, notarized, sealed, with blood and DNA!

All kidding aside, I learned more about people from this one real estate transaction than from taking my three college psychology classes! Unless it's on paper, and you don't have a relationship with a person, be ready for some surprises.

At the end, all is well. I am writing this from my new office, and although the window view is blocked by a tall desk hutch (which I may eventually remove), I find it much easier to focus on my work.

I wish I had a picture of my office, but I can't find my camera. Back to unpacking!

Every once in a while I re-evaluate what I do with my time.

Am I being as efficient and productive as I could be?

Am I spending my time doing things I enjoy and that produce income?

Last night's analysis led me to realize that I need a part-time assistant right in my office - a mix between a business and personal assistant, and an office manager.

The hardest thing is always coming up with the job description. After looking around my office and thinking about time-consuming but non-profit-generating activities I have on my to-do list, here is what I came up with.

Feel free to use this for finding your own assistant, because this posting generated several interesting leads I am now interviewing.
