Vanessa Just Failing Forward

I’m based in Flower Mound, TX but most likely in the window seat of an airplane right now.

After graduating with a Degree in Sociology, I spent several years building companies for major industries. Over time, I became more intrigued with business entrepreneurs, team-building strategies, leadership coaching, social media branding, marketing, and public relationships.

Define

Define your scope. Look for patterns and insights, question assumptions, and frame your POV.

Ideate

Come up with many solutions—experiment with ideas. Collaborate, Brainstorm and select new strategies with your business ideas. 

Generating creative ideas enables you to develop innovative solutions to a situation and is especially beneficial when you break out of stale thinking patterns..

Build a Team

Build a team, not just a business. Have a clear value proposition. Customer service is an integral part of any business. The customer's experience should be the priority through content marketing and customer experience design; you can turn customers into advocates. Referral programs enable you to increase your customer base and revenue by offering incentives to existing customers. A strong team is crucial for any business—one filled with like-minded people who work hard to achieve their goals. Choosing The Right local marketing channels is essential to getting the most out of your marketing investment.

Social Media is the trendy platform of choice; office seekers must play up this outlet, not just stomach it. Think back to how many awkward live feeds you have sat through, was it an enjoyable process, or was it cringeworthy? The last thing a politician wants to do is to make their audience uncomfortable. So it would help if you found a way to enjoy this part of the job, or it will hurt your brand. This is especially important for those elected officials that have to be away from their constituents during sessions. In addition, you will be expected to inform your voters of up-to-date reports; isolating yourself in the capital is the quickest way to lose your support.
