Open to New Opportunities
Sharing about new opportunities that have come my way during the past couple of months of working on social media campaign for a candidate in the local primary election and expanding my services to other businesses for website development, social media and content marketing.  It's something I've always found interesting but never really thought too much as a service to provide.  Richard Branson says if you're given a new opportunity to just say yes and figure it out later.  I tend to live my life by that. One of my go to resources for helping me understand more about social media and content marketing strategies is HubSpot Academy.  It's a fantastic resources whether you're looking to provide a service for others or just simply curious.  Check it out at https://academy.hubspot.com/.
