While surfing the web late one night for additional resources and connections for my swimwear line, Miss Kinsman, I somehow came across Savor the Success, an online community of some of the most successful and amazing women all in one place. In addition to these driven business savvy women, the site also offers access to [...]

Importance of Failing

* I recently signed up for Help a Reporter Out and have been getting some very thought provoking queries in my inbox from various reporters. I wanted to share this bit I submitted recently that didn’t get picked up but no sense in letting it go to waste. The question was: Why Is It Important [...]

Positive Relationships

Joanna Kinsman — Thu, 06 Sep 2012 04:11:21 +0000

I’ve been meaning to publish a blog post about being selective about your friends and colleagues, but was provoked to write this today: We’ve all had a friend or acquaintance with whom we’ve come to the realization that that person is more toxic than they are uplifting, adding only negative fuel to your fire. I [...]

A Leap of Faith

Well I did it – I finally launched my online store at MissKinsman.com. It’s not perfect, but I’m happy to say that Miss Kinsman is open for business. Now I’ll be working on press releases and online marketing to gain traffic to the site and awareness to the brand. The most important thing is that [...]

I recently finished Jordan McAuley’s book, Celebrity Leverage, which I’ve been recommending to business owners left and right as an invaluable resource to maximize the celebrity-driven society we live in. Especially having moved to LA this spring, I’m understanding the importance of celebrities to a brand, as well as the impact it can have. Having [...]

Using Odesk Effectively for Outsourcing

Joanna Kinsman — Sat, 18 Aug 2012 05:40:29 +0000

It seems that Tim Ferriss’ book, Four Hour Work Week, has been coming up quite often lately in conversations, resulting in questions about outsourcing overseas, which I do quite often. Anyone can outsource their work – I even used it in one of my old jobs when “business development” handed me mundane data entry jobs. [...]

Turn on Your Subscribers

Joanna Kinsman — Thu, 02 Aug 2012 10:15:53 +0000

Tonight I posted that I was about to reach 1000 subscribers to my “business” Facebook profile – woohoo! But what does that even mean? By manually setting this feature, you are allowing people who aren’t your friends to still see what you’re posting. I receive hundred of friend requests a month on that account – [...]

Broken Link Checker

Joanna Kinsman — Thu, 26 Jul 2012 08:46:37 +0000

Anyone who knows me knows I have a geeky side to balance out the fashion and creative part of me. And if you know that, you probably know I’m moderately obsessed with finding new plugins that make WordPress easier and sexier. I wanted to share a tool I found recently that probably helps me sleep [...]

Don’t Be A Loser

Joanna Kinsman — Wed, 18 Jul 2012 10:45:46 +0000

Have you ever noticed how easy it can be to lose your readers’ attention while they’re on your blog? Perhaps not. It’s nothing you said (well not quite). Tt’s your embedded links that send visitors off to other sites that you may be mentioning. Instead you should be sending these links to a new tab [...]
