Before and After Bio
Two weeks ago I was attracted to listen to an audio called Bye-Bye Boring Bios. When I got to the website, I realized that the person giving the talk was a local PR person, Nancy Juetten. Even if she wasn’t from the Seattle area, this is a not-to miss audio.
Then on Sept 16, I attended an event sponsored by the Puget Sound Business Journal, where Nancy was on of the speakers. Between those two encounters, I updated one of my many bio’s, this one is very short and I use it for a ½ page promo card designed by Creative Designer Nancy Oywang.
The first two words of my bio are those that Nancy Juetten recommended when I spoke to her at the Puget Sound Business Journal event. I made minor changes, but the rest of the changes, that bring the bio to light were made by Chistine Mifsud, someone new working for me that has surely impressed me (and Nancy J)
